On what legitimate moral basis can one prohibit polygamy among consenting adults, while allowing homosexual "marriage?"

On what legitimate moral basis are polygamy and homosexual marriage disallowed?

Well, like it or not, the proscription of such practices are part of the legal and moral heritage known as Judeo-Christianity.

Now, you might not like that, but it is inarguable that our system of morals and ethics derives thusly.

My point is that it is not possible to say one is acceptable, without the other being acceptable. To do so demonstrates hypocrisy on the part of the gay advocates. After all, who are they to say that adulterers or polygamists are doing wrong? Isn't that just an artificial construct (by their reasoning)?
