Ignacio: My polyamory, the way it looks is, I think I always like to say it's either this circular kind of thing or this wonderful hub at the root of a tree, that's my chosen family. So they're a part of that. My chosen family, with them I have a lot of emotional relationships, some are spiritual relationships, some cross over into occasional sexual intimacies or interactions, but my chosen family is really my core. Those are the people I connect with, go to, am held accountable with or I hold them accountable, we struggle together, all of that. Currently I have three very significant relationships. One is with a person that I say is my ‘person,’ that's the kind of terminology I use– I go back and forth about language– she's “my person” and we've been together for well over a decade. She identifies as a bisexual cis woman and she's black. That's also another theme for my relationships, I prefer to have relationships with other people of color. My other relationship is with a black trans man and we, I use “boyfriend” to describe him and he also has another person in his life and he uses “partner” to describe the both of us and I'm not anti-that or against it, I think we all have certain relationships to certain language so I say boyfriend. We've been together for about three or four years, I'm losing count [laughter]. And then I have a D/s dynamic with a black femme queer woman and we've been together for two years now. I'm the dominant in this scenario and she's the submissive and we also have a very, very intense and beautiful spiritual relationship.

Ignacio Rivera is a New Yorker currently living in Baltimore.  They are a sex educator, writer, performance artist, activist around the wide hub gender and sexuality.

Ignacio:  I identify as trans and within that I identify as two spirit.  I identify as a genderfluid, a switch, a survivor, sober, a mother, and as a person of color, as a spiritual person.  All of those things interact with how I interact with other people and are really important to me.

Being a survivor:  Being poly and being kinky have been very important tools for my survivorship and for my healing.  The way that is, is because  I get to navigate different feelings and different things with different people.  It’s not a secret. There’s no shame with it. And so one of my biggest life’s work is to undo shame and undo secrecy. Which was a big part of my young life because I’m a survivor of child sexual abuse and rape as a teenager. So being honest, truthful and not holding shame for my desires is super important. So being a survivor and being able to intentionally be loving or nasty or whatever it is that I want to be.

Ignacio:  I do think that it is a privilege in the sense that when you're dating multiple people, you're thinking about what does a date look like? Where are we going? Are we going places or are we dating in the sense that we just see each other at our home or in our neighborhood. That shifts a lot for a lot of different people. I know for me, while being on welfare and actually or just getting off of welfare, and dating the woman that I'm dating now, my person, I... one of the first things I wanted to do was have a conversation about money. I was just going to be straight out with it. I was like, “I'm poor. I don't have money. You are a woman that does not have children, has her own place, makes some good money and you ask me if I can go to these places with you. I would like to go to these places, but that's not how I can contribute.” So we had to have a conversation about money and what that meant and how I contribute to the relationship that might not be monetary, it's a different way. Because I felt uncomfortable. I never wanted someone to think that I was using them. Because I'm coming with me and my child, you know [laughter]. And I don't know if a lot of people have that, the language. A couple of years prior to that I would never have even thought about having that conversation with someone.The priorities for most people who are struggling are within that struggle. Therein lies the privilege because we're thinking as poor people– we're thinking about living, eating, rent.
