I myself would not wish to engage in such an arrangement( think of all the Mothers-in-law you would have) But all that means is that I don't wish to do it, not that others shouldn't. ![[Image: mybannerglitter06eee094.gif]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=i118.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fo112%2Fpussinboots_photos%2FBikes%2Fmybannerglitter06eee094.gif) If you're not supposed to ride faster than your guardian angel can fly then mine had better get a bloody SR-71. 
The words are also important to many Kacigaineko and I wouldn't undermine the desire for people to have their relationship considered a 'marriage' - the legal equality is maybe more important but Inwould say that equality demands the name marriage too...

Simmer down, Kich.
So, Dawud, what's your REAL question? Are you actually trying to ask why people oppose it? ![[Image: Untitled2_zpswaosccbr.png]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=i1140.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fn569%2Fthesummerqueen%2FUntitled2_zpswaosccbr.png) (April 22, 2013 at 9:31 am)thesummerqueen Wrote: Simmer down, Kich. Agreed, it better not be a preamble to opposing gay marriage or I will be very disappointed.

I'm only asking because I think that's what he actually wants to know. Otherwise he really is being Captain Obvious. RE: Equal marriage for all?

No - just checking if people here would say that polygamy/polyandry is bad.
I find that most people aren't against it philosophically but if it is put alongside the fact that it would allow religious people like the Mormons to marry multiple wives then there can be an irrational knee jerk reaction against polygamy/polyandry as a whole because people can tend to think if it is from a religion then it is bad. Silly logic I know but it does happen. I'd not marry again but I think that the general opposition to polygamy is just based on outdated cultural norms.... I'm not opposing gay marriage btw ;-) I'm just hopeful that Muslim women who come to Britain from countries where polygamy is a norm (mainly Saudi and Nigeria) can be legally protected even though their marriage does not conform to the previous status quo... I also wondered if there were many legal or philosophical arguments against this...

I think the basis upon which some of the mormom sects practice polygamy went full retard - but that has nothing to do with the polygamy...that I understand, wholeheartedly - especially if you can con said females into being your unpaid maids, cooks, nannys, and whores (and I keep hearing that they're totally into anal...which, I gotta say- would be icing on the cake even if I never went down that road).

Immoral? Meh, hardly, ridiculously stupid - yes.
