Polyamory and ENM are two different things. Polyamory is a part of ENM but ENM is not polyamory. It's rectangles and squares stuff.

You can be ENM without any polyamory.

Mind giving a little more detail about the difference?

Ethical non-monogamy is any form of non-monogamy that everyone involved is okay with and consents to.

Examples:

  • polyamory
  • Open relationship
  • Swinging
  • being/having a unicorn/bull

Etc etc...

Polyamory is just one aspect of a much larger category.
