During a law school debate on April 15, New York University professor of social and cultural analysis Judith Stacey argued against the nuclear family and monogamous relationships, and for decriminalizing polygamy.
The debate, sponsored by the conservative Federalist Society and between Ms. Stacey and the conservative Heritage Foundation’s Ryan T. Anderson, was on “the defense of marriage.”
Among Ms. Stacey’s wicked smart musings: “I say why should there be marriage at all;” “What should limit it to two and why should it be monogamous? Nothing in view gives the state that particular interest;” and “So I would agree that we should get rid of the sexual family, there’s no reason in the contemporary world to base our relationships necessarily on sex.”
On the subject of holding down many wives, Ms. Stacey said, “I’m not arguing for those other forms, though I do in my book argue for the decriminalization of polygamy — which I think is a deeply hypocritical stance, and we can get into that if you want — but it’s not because I advocate polygamy.” Polygamy is an ancient tradition still rocked by a number of cults and religious sects, Osama bin Laden’s friends and this [NSFW] Toba chieftain from 1892.
She also shared that she suspects that because “the children of gay male co-parents will wind up having probably the best parents. … I would say that children certainly do not need both a mother and a father. They need good parents of whatever sort.”(continued)

More proof that even a moron can be a “professor” in the crap we call universities these days.
NYU is hardly higher learning.
It is a freakfest payed for with tax payer dimes.
How about incest and pedophilia, he likes those too?
Another brain dead leftist POC. Obviously a product of years of progressive indoctrination. Not to mention he is an atheist or at the very least an agnostic.
These are the folks that are teaching our young at “prestigious” universities and colleges. And all for a mere 50K plus a year.
Sad, so sad.
Albeit the following is well-worn, it’s true here: These self-styled thinkers became so open minded their brains fell out.
The enlightened never fail to amuse.
It use to be that people who said stuff like that would get either a swift kick in the ass or tarred and feathered.
What a piece of trash.
I honestly don’t think I’d care if she was killed by a pressure cooker.
we will have none of these God-hating perverts around in heaven. we won’t even remember they existed. they all still have the ability to repent and ask God to save them. pray God sends someone to them that gets them to accept biblical truth.
Communist Goal # 40:
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

if we can’t help them now, maybe we can during God’s day.
yup
The propaganda officer realizes that he can never have what another man has.
In a sense I agree with her. Marriage is a religious institution and no business of the states.
Does that mean I am pro homosexual? No
Does that mean I am pro polygamy? No
What about bestiality, incest or the other? No
It means that this “Agenda” is only possible because the state gives benefits through the tax code to certain individuals.
The righteous do the wicked a disservice by enforcing righteousness upon them. It allows the wicked to deny the consequences of their wickedness.
The best argument for the validity and truth of marriage is to look at how the alternative play out.
“professor of social and cultural analysis”
her very title identifies her course work as NOT academic but political; I’m sure what her students are required to “study” are books she herself has written expounding her opinions and books by others whose opinions agree with hers, but certainly NOT any works that might make for counter-argument and critical analysis of her opinions
And then barnyard animals as "spouses" of humans so "inclined."
Twelvesomes???
