By this I mean, if a man and woman are married, and the man wants to take a second wife, than his first wife should get a say, and be legally bound (married) to this second wife as well. None of this, "I'm a man, I can marry as many women as I want," (or vice versa) nonsense. Either all parties are for the plural marriage or it doesn't happen. Equal voices for equal partners.Quote:I have no problems with plural marriages....not me. I have enough problems with just the one wife I'm married to...makes no sense to double the trouble.
As others pointed out, if plural marriages are allowed, it doesn't mean everyone has to have a plural marriage. I'm cool with whatever people want. Don't want to get married at all? Awesome! Want to only marry one person of the opposite sex? Great! Want to marry a person of the same sex? Good for you! Want to marry multiple people? Fabulous! So long as all parties know what they're getting into and consent. It really is that simple.
