So no, a harem does not equal a polyamorous relationship just because a collection of people use polyamory as an umbrella term.
I have no idea why we're having an ELA lesson in a porn game thread, but here I am (wtf am I doing with my life...Eh, yes and no. The two types of relationships can certainly overlap or blur and I do agree that it's pointless to "get super hung up on trying to differentiate them" because most games on here contain a mix and not strictly one or the other. And considering there is no poly tag and both types are currently tagged as harems, it seems the site admins agree that there's no point in differentiating.
While everyone is free to believe in what they want to believe in, that doesn't mean their beliefs are correct or accurate - as is evident by trying to differentiate synonymous terms, in which the definition of one is included in the other.Oxford Dictionary said:Polyamory: The practice of engaging in multiple sexual relationships with the agreement of all the people involved.
Harem: The separate part of a Muslim household reserved for wives, concubines, and female servants; the women living there. In extended usage, the word also denotes the wives (or concubines) of a polygamous man, and thus a group of female animals sharing a single mate.
Just so the mods don't send me to the Gulag for off-topic discussion... did you know that the incest patch is a single line of code that just sets the "game.is_special" to to "True"?
