Oh come on... that's over-stating it. One may love his/her spouse, 
parents, children, nephews and nieces, the pet dog, the kids he/she 
teaches in school, his/her computer, his/her hobby - that's polyamory?
Don't make the silly mistake of Freud and see sex and lust in everything.
Human beings are capable of some purity.
