Did you read my post? I SAID IN A UTOPIA, but we don't live in that,
Polygamy in its current state is male driven and sexist. And even without religion like I said, it is biologically less complicated to keep track of mates and rivals with fewer partners although males have more sperm vs women having fewer eggs. Women have more incentive to be selective.
IN A UTOPIA which does not exist, religion would never play a role in sexual habits. If consent ruled and not dogma or politics we would not be having this debate at all.
But it does, so "lets pretend" doesn't wash. In the real world polygamy is not justified by consent of females not even by the closest measure. It is an antiquated tool of male insecurity.
