Multigamy

Multigamy is the broad term that covers all types of relationships that involve more than two people.

Multigamy is a newer and more encompassing term for ethical non-monogamy or consensual non-monogamy. Both of these terms pin an identity as being "other" to something else, rather than a distinct identity in its own right.

This includes polyamory, swinging, and relationship anarchy.
