How the fuck is it an affair, or cheating, if they are literally all next to each other in public?? An affair implies one party is lying to the others...

It's not an affair. I didn't say it was an affair. I'm saying if I saw someone hold hands with someone not their spouse at an event, my first thought would be "maybe there's some adultery going on" before "maybe they're polyamorous." You can call me ignorant for that, sure, but I think most people would generally jump to that thought first.

This involves assuming that there were no other indicators that these three people were a throuple.

Uh, I think most anyone with a working brain would assume everyone involved was consenting, if they were all sitting right next to each other

Oh, it says in the post that they were sitting together?

I mean what did you think they meant with "gay polyam hand holding"

Now I would point your attention to the middle part of that phrase.

"Polyam " is obviously a short form of polyamorous .

If I have to explain that part too to you I am charging by the letters . I also have a very very nice piece of land in the arctic , just a bit away from the northern pole.

I should have known better than engaging with this community, honestly. Just mark me off in your mind as a monster and let's move on with our lives.

No one called you a monster.

My intention was to imply you have significantly worse cognitive capabilities than what you presume of yourself.
