Most practitioners of polyamory consider honesty to be an integral part. "Dont ask, don't tell" is often frowned upon.
Unlike polygamy, polyamory does not necessarily involve marriage, although some polyamorous people are married. Unlike "swinging", polyamorous relationships generally involve an emotional bond. Most monogamous people define fidelity as being true to exactly one sexual partner; most polyamorous people define fidelity as not lying to your partners.
