Do you support the legalisation of polyagmy and polyandry
#2
RE: Do you support the legalisation of polyagmy and polyandry
I don't think the typical problems of multiple partner marriages have anything to do with the marriages themselves. The problem's all the baggage, typically religious, that comes along with it. I'm for legalizing them in theory, but I don't have nearly enough information on exactly what sort of harm is often caused in these marriages to make an educated decision. How routinely are people oppressed in these marriages? Are the families typically financially solvent, or do they often need assistance from the government? I don't know even know what other questions to ask, but I'm sure there are many. My position on legalizing them would all come down to how much real-world harm they cause.
