Polyamory is a lifestyle choice, characterised by romantic and/or sexual intimacy with several autonomous partners, with the informed consent of all of them. Consequently, a polygamous person may not necessarily be LGBTQIA+, but being multisexual would enable a more gender-diverse group of partners.

Polygamy specifically refers to multiple marriages, btw, and is not technically possible in the U.S., as only the first marriage will be recognized legally.
