The "None" category is growing rapidly. Not a question of if polygamy will be legal but when.

Well, why not? Pandora’s Box has already been opened, is it really that much more ridiculous than letting two members of the same sex marry?

If my daughter needed health insurance coverage, I guess I should be able to marry her so I can add her to my work coverage.

With the current hook-up culture going on, who needs monogamy anymore?
Just don’t ever have kids, because their brains only function properly with a mom and a dad.

How is “polyamory” different from “screwing whatever crosses your path,” which is how many people live?

With stuff like AshleyMadison.com out there, in an informal sense we are already there.

Too many nagging M-I-Ls a civilization does not make!

He should be able to marry his daughter, his son, his lama, his llama, his sheep, and his goat.
Maybe even his dog, his cat, and his hedgehog ...

A homo did that.
He legally adopted his homosexual lover for the medical benefits.
Icky times 2!

That’s messed up. More people think it’s okay to have sex with multiple others that you aren’t married to but being married to multiple people is wrong?
To: Tax-chick
It differs in that women in polygamous arrangements have historically, inevitably, been reduced to chattel for a dominating male.

Every civilization that has practiced polygamy has collapsed. Every civilization that has practiced same-sex has collapsed. Polygamy is just piling on.

“... the practise is quite common in many parts of the Islamic world and sub-Saharan Africa.”
So is female genital mutilation.

I’m going to marry my pet turtle and since turtles don’t need health insurance, neither do I.

Nothing regarding “marriage” is tabu any more. And anyone who says there is any marriage tabu will be dealt with in proper time.
