Polygamy vs. Communal Living

[drfuzzy]

Went through all what?  Sorry rebeccarox/Empress.  Somehow I missed that you only wanted to discuss the legal ramifications . . .  I don't think I'll start a thread about polygamy, because, honestly, I think that all marriage should be banned. The monogamous male-female version hasn't worked all that well.

I think I was projecting other posts I've seen of yours onto this one. I'm pretty sure you went through a lot as a child, if I remember right (?), so that knowledge colored my reading of your last post. Sorry 

(I'm not a big fan of marriage either)

Thanks Empress.  I apologize as well.  I usually, in real life, completely hide my background.  I fear that here, I may have gone to the other extreme - I'm anonymous, so I let it all out.  Hmm.     Not good, actually . . . Thank you for thinking of me and my welfare.

But the question of the emotional under-pinnings of multiple marriage might be one for this group to explore.  Not just the legality . . . but the fact that the "one male, multiple females" dynamic seems to be a constant.  Internet bulletin boards seem to be, still, a primarily male domain. Someday the voices will be equal.
