I would like this to serve as a way for Central Kentucky poly people to meet
electronically, discuss current poly events, and perhaps... find a new friend or
two. For those that do not know, poly is short for polyamory, or the idea of
loving more than one. This is not a place to post ISO ads. Topics for discussion
in this group would include how to meet other polys, living arrangements,
sharing successes and horror stories... basically all facets of life.
DO NOT SIGN UP if any of the following applies to you:
You are hoping for a discrete affair. Honesty is a big part of our lives
here.
You really want to be monogamous and this is just out of curiosity.
You intend to flame
You do not intend to participate at least once in a while.
You are simply looking for SEX - chances are you will not find that here.
Guest book - Visitor#
You can also leave a message at the guest book and someone will get back to
you with more information.
Polyamory -- many loves. It is a philosophy that allows a person to
have more than one love (emotional, spiritual, and/or sexual) at a time,
openly and honestly. It can also mean responsible non-monogamy.
Polyfidelity -- being faithful to more than one
Polygamy -- recognized marriage between 3 or more persons (current
illegal in the US in all 50 states)
Swinging -- sexual exploration without a required emotional
commitment
Open Relationship -- an agreement between two (or more) partners
regarding sexual and/or emotional exclusivity
Triad -- a relationship consisting of three persons
(interconnections)
V -- relationship of three persons with a central pivot

Subscribing
You can click on the links below to either visit the web pages for more
information (hosted at groups.yahoo.com). Or you can click on the email links
to join/post questions. Please be aware that PCK is currently a
semi-closed list. When you request to join, you will recieve a very short set of
of questions to answer. As soon as the moderator(s) receive your reply, you will have
full access to the club, including all posting and membership rights.
Discussion Group Email Addresses
There are several other polyamory groups in Kentucky, and many host events.
All events which are public, that is open to anyone, may be posted
to the club calendar. The calendar can be set up to automatically email
the members of the group to notify them, so no special email need be sent.
Be prepared to answer questions, post directions, etc if you do post an
event.
If your event requires an RSVP, the announcement must include a valid email
address and a cut-off date for accepting RSVP's.
Should you have a semi-private event that you would like to invite a select
subset of the list, please do NOT use this list as your vehicle. This includes
events that might be considered public, but "some people" are not welcome.
Discrmination and exclusion of anyone, regardless of reason, will not be tolerated.
If you have any questions or doubts, you can always just ask the moderator(s)
before publishing an event.
Posting Guidelines
There are sites out there that outline the rules of 'Netiquette more fully,
but for the purposes of this list, these are the rules I would like you to keep
in mind.
Please use an appropriate subject line. If you change the
topic, please make sure to indicate the change in thread. If you read in digest form, please change
the subject to reflect the thread you are responding to.
Please delete any duplicate / unnecessary text. If you are replying to someone,
please remove their signature line(s), as well as the trailer added by onelist.
If you are quoting someone, snip out all the bits that are not directly
connected to your response. This is especially important when replying to a
digest message.
Please limit quoting to the previous message. Occasionally it may be
necessary to include something another level deeper, but this should be kept to
an absolute minimum.
No Flames! If you disagree with someone, it is certainly ok to say "I
disagree with you (because X)" but it is not ok to say that they are not
only completely wrong, but an idiot for even daring to post that.
Please keep "me too" replies to a minimum. If you agree with
someone, but have nothing else to add to a post, perhaps a message in reply
directly to the poster would be more appropriate than quoting the entire passage
and adding a "I agree".
Please do not post invitiations for parties and gatherings directly to the list.
They should be added to the calendar, which will automatically email the list members
about upcoming events.
At least people have been
to this site since it was
.
