Short filmTranscript
00:00 People sitting on the couch are dating.
00:05 Music and I are partners and Ritney and I are partners and
00:10 Music and Vishal are partners.
00:13 The word polyamory is made up of two words.
00:22 Poly which means many and amor which translates to love.
00:29 When you are polyamorous, you are able to fall in love with more than one person at a given point of time.
00:36 Both of us have been married separately and still we are polyamorous.
00:42 I think the last few years libido has sort of been a bit low but I can feel it like coming back.
00:50 The idea that you could romantically be involved in many partners,
00:56 it unsettles people and makes them very very anxious.
00:59 That deep feeling of emotions that we try to say,
01:03 that I really don't think that can happen with two people simultaneously.
01:07 We want to love but without all those restrictions.
01:12 This would be seen as problem right from the lens of the law as adultery
01:16 and from a social lens as a moral problem.
01:20 You need that monogamous marriage, otherwise how will there be blood purity?
01:25 Inheritance, you know whose child is it?
01:26 But does that mean that we stop advocating for it? Absolutely not. So one can hope.
01:31 Is polyamory a threat to monogamy?
01:34 Is monogamy that fragile?
01:37 What's it like?
01:39 [Laughter]
01:42 [Music]
01:44 [WHOOSH]
