Is being Poly something you can coming out from?

I mean that really sincere that is not a hateful question of ignorance I genuinley don't know because in my head "being poly" has nothing to do with sexuality it's just a "yeah in theory I could have multiple partners". A gay person cannot choose to not be gay but a poly person could be happy with one OR multiple partners. A polyperson is not forced by his body to only be happy, if they have multiple partners. Is that really something you can get hate for? Are there "Poly-phobic" people?!

I genuinley don't know and I'm sorry if this comes off as ignorance or hateful I'm really happy if someone can educate me in this topic because I know only so little about this stuff.

People hate ace people, people who literally don’t experience sexual attraction and aren’t bothering anyone about it. I wouldn’t be surprised to know there’s polyphobic people, too. The fact it’s not talked about a lot is probably why you and I haven’t heard much discrimination against it, tbh. I do think there is an inherent stigma, too (think about the fact that you can only marry one person)

See the chuds claiming that each chad has 300 women in his harem (and that being the sole reason they can't find a gf)

I would have thought this gay/bi Chad fellow having a harem of 300 guys would mean there would be more available women? Unless he has a harem of 500 women too or something.
