    That’s just beautiful.

    No, really. I have a desire to spam poly LJ communities with it now. I bet the polyamory community would have a hissyfit, just cause they always do, about everything.

    Well, it’s not the first such coined word to mix roots. But yeah, it’s “wrong.” :^)

    OTOH, seriously, can you imagine SAYING “multiamory,” or “polyphilia”? Personally, The first isn’t TOO bad I suppose, though it lacks grace, and the second, IMNSHO, sounds like a conference of folks talking about other reasons to like Philadelphia beside cream cheese and cheese-steaks.

      mixed roots of polyamory

      Actually, the person who coined the word was aware that she was mixing Greek and Latin, and did so for exactly this reason – it was a much better word than the Greek-only or Latin-only options. I completely agree with her, it was the right choice.

    Too funny! Reading that made me want to buy the shirt, but then I remembered I already have too many t-shirts, _and_ I shouldn’t be spending money right now.
