Polyfidelity is restricting one's sexual activities nonpreferentially to a single group of people, each of whom follows the same rules and has sex only within the group. The term originated within Kerista commune in San Francisco which practiced polyfidelity from 1971-1991. Polyfidelity has also been practiced in other cultures and times.
A mutually faithful arrangement of this kind offers the same health advantages as monogamy, if the usual tests for sexually transmitted diseases are undertaken by each person within such a circle, although the apparent risk may rise slightly with each person in the mutually faithful circle, until known.
