MODERATORS
I've allowed my partner to refer to me as girlfriend to make discussion with others easier. I don't love it, it doesn't sound like a longterm adult relationship, but I recognize it's easier to say "my wife and my girlfriend".
and both of us go to family Christmas, though not everyone needs to know relationship status.
... you're absolutely right about the scheduling thing though.
That's pretty understandable and reasonable, but something tells me bringing another girlfriend to the same party would probably make the whole point a little moot.
Something about the post reads as "I'm only poly to upset my parents", and that's not typically what I see when interacting with the community. All the successful poly relationships I've seen have taken a ton of work and communication for it to function, and tend to be more mature than let's go upset my partners parents.
