Description
It's time to come out as polyamorous and show people what polyamory is really about!
Beginning on October 9th, declare yourself as poly:
* Set your Facebook (and IM) status to a pro-poly declaration such as, "I Am Polyamorous"
* Set your Facebook image to something related, perhaps a picture of you holding a sign with the same message.
* Take this to other websites (twitter, blogs, etc) and even into the real world!
WHY? Polyamory is unknown to most people, and misunderstood by many who know about it. All poly people have faced polyphobia. When polyamory is accepted, it's almost always hush-hush and/or on the grounds of don't ask, don't tell. Polyamory needs awareness and acceptance, so let's gain some visibility and talk to people who ask us about it! (Serial) monogamy is something that's pretty much just accepted everywhere and remains mostly unchallenged, so let's openly challenge it =]
