EXCELLENT point.
My boyfriend's ex, who were together for 7 months, and starting to get serious, never bothered to say he was poly. One big rule in poly is to say it right away so the potential partner can have the choice to accept or reject. Because the ex called my boyfriend (this was years ago) and said he had crabs so they couldn't get together. WTF... an ex I had was poly but he told me upfront about what poly was about. (he just couldn't stand it the moment I wanted to date a woman, spelling it out to him that he would still be the primary... yet I had no qualms when he went out... )
No double standards. No BS. I say, get tested for every STD and then dump him. You might have legal action as well if you have something major and incurable, whose drugs have more side effects than you'd ever want to endure...
