Poligamy what is your take?

beez

I don't think it's any of the government's business so long as the women willingly got married and were of age, and so long as the children are safe and taken care of.

I think it should BE LEGAL but all children born of them should have the dads last name, they love to abuse the welfare system that way, ALSO no under age folks, thats sick. who wouldnt love to have another woman around to clean if youre tired!

As a man who has been happily married to one woman for 15 years, I can't possibly imagine why anyone would want to be married to more than one person. Even a good marriage is hard work.

I like the one on one arrangement myelf. But then again I do not share well.

Great Legislator

Considering that many polygamists want to start marrying
10 year olds. I would think it's not a healthy lifestyle.

Is it even our question to address? I think the Supreme Dictators of the United States might decide the question for us (by saying that is a "constitutional right.")

It is none of the governement's affair. Never was, never will be. They have guns and self-righteousness...that seems to be enough until the citizens say "no"

I would say that the government has a vested interest in maintaining a stable family which provides the best environment for children. To date, that has proven to be 1 man and 1 woman, which is why the government only recognizes these marriages.

For the government to allow any deviation to be seen as equal is providing a disservice to the community, by saying other options are equal the best. Other options should still be allowed, but there is only 1 best and there is only 1 relationship worthy to be called marriage.

I'm against it.
Try spellcheck.

Those of us that have been socialized in the Western culture, have the greatest difficulty with this scenario. Since women do significantly outnumber men, and with GOD (the Christian GOD) being omnipotent, he was aware that we would be facing this problem in the 21st century. Maybe that is how we are actually supposed to be living. If it were to be legalized, it would have to be for the purpose of keeping families together and pooling of resources. Ever seen Big Love on HBO. By the way, I am an unmarried, straight female. I am not interested in living out this scenario, but I am open minded enough to say........What if????

definitely illegal...just some people wanting their cake and eat it too....yes the government should step in because obviously they can't think for themselves.

but what if a women was married to a man who had two wives and was also married to another man who had three wives,

what relationshiop would her two seperate husbands be, and would thier wives be related though marriage

la jirafa

i think its wrong. it's an excuse for having someone on the side.

well wisher

It only makes sense for one man to be married to one woman. 1=1.

unfadbl

I can't see how that would work. marriage is suppose to be sacred. What about the children that are born into these families????You take vows with the "one" you marry to be faithful and committed to them & only them, if you share this with others then how is it special? Poligamy takes away from the sanctaty of marriage.

NO!!! Absolutely NO! Would you want to be used in such a manner? and this is even before one thinks of the Emotional, Financial, Mental and Physical Aspects of having to share a spouse with another human at the same time!!!!
