Because what ever you do, don’t commit to anything.

How do you guarantee that sexual diseases will not spread if you make this widely acceptable?

This is the dying ember of the '60s hippies.
Things are going to be turned upside-down for them soon. We have about reached the tipping point, where everything will be right-side up again.

I have some news. Polygamy never went away. Far more of this goes on than almost anyone realizes.

We have about reached the tipping point, where everything will be right-side up again. I agree, but it will probably require the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

If a man wants to put up with 4 or 5 Harpies, have at it.

More than one wife -—> more than one mother-in-law (unless you are foolish enough to marry *sisters*)...
Cheers!

Ahh, but is it recognized by law?
If a man has four “wives” but is officially married to only one of them and forgot to write a will... who gets his money at his death?
Do our laws cater for that?

Why not, if you’re going to allow faggotry then who are we to say no to polyamory.
It will be fun to see the gays play Twister to try to justify their lifestyle while denying others.

Next up; pedophilia, then incest. Even odds whether bestiality or necrophilia is the last taboo.

IN MASSACHUSETTS, Three lesbian women in Massachusetts recently “married” each other after exchanging vows in a wedding-style ceremony.
They claim they are the world’s first “throuple.”

Everyone knows monogamy is an institution that was concocted by dead white males to perpetuate the Republican Party.

What if we all came to view "our relationships as a pyramid structure with our primary partner at the top and a host of lovers, friends, spiritual soul mates, colleagues, and acquaintances beneath that?" Like, that's just like, so beautiful, man!

“If a man has four “wives” but is officially married to only one of them and forgot to write a will... who gets his money at his death?”
The folks I know haven’t “forgotten” about contract law, wills and probate, and the like. And why do you assume there is an “official” wedding in the first place?
“Do our laws cater for that?”
Actually, they do quite nicely. Do a little research. Any group of people can create any number of ways to handle their affairs. Grown ups do it all the time. You should look into it sometime.

We would be hearing even more of this kind of baloney if Romney had won two years ago.
