I became a young adult in the 1980s when queer had a rather pejorative connotation, and although I've since embraced the updated, reclaimed meaning, I've never thought of polyamory as inherently queer - but I think it's a great question. As a poly person who has a husband but also has female partners, I struggle with any labels because I feel like I'm just me - and that I'm not substantially different than I was when I presented as monogamous and heterosexual. In other words, I don't have a strong opinion on this, but I do think it was a good exploration of the topic. Kudos!
