I just joined a group on Facebook called "Facebook Should Recognize Polyamory". I would have linked to it there, but I was unable to. Perhaps it's because it's a closed group. I don't want to spend time figuring out the Facebook UI. Instead, I just wrote about its existence for those who might be interested.
While my individual action of becoming a member may not make much of a difference, I thought I'm mention the existence of the group in case anyone else would like to request membership. I have some mild frustration with Facebook (among other places) that I can't include more than one romantic relationship in my profile page, so up to this point I haven't included any.
I believe people who don't identify as polyamorous might also be interested in getting places like Facebook to make more relationships status options available just as a matter of making such venues better represent and work for their users.
I guess it's similar to my having changed my gender on Facebook back to the default new profile state rather than leaving it as male. It's a sort of protest vote. Though oddly enough, other than the they/their pronoun set (I'd prefer zie/zir, and that's something of a grammar quibble), I'd be likely to continue to have no gender indicated on my profile rather than any other options that might be added. As I keep saying, I'll talk more about that later.
