          Yeah but that’s why you get a partner who is good at dishes and doesn’t mind doing them if you vacuum. You just happen to be better a vacuuming. It’s the same idea that makes trading with other countries better than doing everything local.

            I don’t mind doing dishes, as long as those end up in the sink or colse to it. Don’t make me clean those up across the home.

        The difference? I personally haven’t had any good experiences with any of these words

          Polygamy = man has many wives

          Polyamory = person has many partners

          As i understand it, it’s all about how much misogyny is at play

            a man with multiple wives is polygyny or a harem.

            polygamy can be any gender, but if I were to guess, polygamy is one-to-many relationship (man with multiple wives, woman with multiple husbands), while polyamory is just a group of people all in a group relationship

      I know it’s a joke, but please hear me out… Just get roommates to share chores with.

      The majority of people out there are not cut out to be poly.

        IME, a significant amount of people are not cut out to be roommates, either. Including me, I’ve been a shitty roommate (I can’t bring myself to clean regularly and I have severe insomnia) and the only thing that changed is that I live by myself now.
