The main propagandist of free love within European individualist
anarchism<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_individualist_anarchism>
 was Emile Armand
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emile_Armand>.[16]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarchism_and_issues_related_to_love_and_sex#cite_note-armandfreelove-16>He
advocated naturism <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturism> (see
anarcho-naturism <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarcho-naturism>) and
polyamory <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyamory> and he came up with the
concept of *la camaraderie
amoureuse*.[17]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarchism_and_issues_related_to_love_and_sex#cite_note-armand-17>
He
wrote many propagandist articles on this subject such as "De la liberté
sexuelle" (1907) where he advocated not only a vague free love but also
multiple partners, which he called "plural
love".[17]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarchism_and_issues_related_to_love_and_sex#cite_note-armand-17>
In
the individualist anarchist journal *L'en dehors
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%27en_dehors>* he and others continued in
this way. Armand seized this opportunity to outline his theses supporting
revolutionary sexualism and "camaraderie amoureuse" that differed from the
traditional views of the partisans of free love in several respects.

Later Armand submitted that from an individualist perspective nothing was
reprehensible about making "love", even if one did not have very strong
feelings for one's
partner.[17]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarchism_and_issues_related_to_love_and_sex#cite_note-armand-17>
"The
camaraderie amoureuse thesis", he explained, "entails a free contract of
association (that may be annulled without notice, following prior
agreement) reached between anarchist individualists of different genders,
adhering to the necessary standards of sexual hygiene, with a view toward
protecting the other parties to the contract from certain risks of the
amorous experience, such as rejection, rupture, exclusivism,
possessiveness, unicity, coquetry, whims, indifference, flirtatiousness,
disregard for others, and
prostitution."[17]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarchism_and_issues_related_to_love_and_sex#cite_note-armand-17>
He
also published *Le Combat contre la jalousie et le sexualisme
révolutionnaire* (1926), followed over the years by *Ce que nous entendons
par liberté de l'amour*(1928), *La Camaraderie amoureuse ou “chiennerie
sexuelle”* (1930), and, finally, *La Révolution sexuelle et la camaraderie
amoureuse* (1934), a book of nearly 350 pages comprising most of his
writings on sexuality
