E Closed polyamory (a so-called "throuple", although I detest that word) is no more dangerous to one's sexual health than is monogamy, provided all participants in the closed circle are tested and, if a litter of littles isn't on the table, on birth control/using protection. It's challenging to keep going; if you think one relationship is hard to maintain, try maintaining three at once. And if there are more people in the circle, the complexity rises exponentially and it all tends to blow up.Open relationships outside of the circle? Advocates for that lifestyle can crow all they like, but it's a case of having your cake and trying to eat it too, and it's no better than any other form of promiscuity, I'll give you that.
