Polygamy should be legalized
Polygamy: More than one spouse.
Monogamy: One spouse - So if you're not married, -- [you're not technically] -- monogamous. Polyandry: More than one husband. Monandry: One husband. Polygyny: More than one wife. Monogyny: One wife. Bigamy: the criminal offense of marrying one person while still legally married to another. Trigamy: Having 3 spouses at one time (17th-19th Century England)* From the modern legal perspective, Trigamy has been viewed as two counts of Bigamy. Polygamy should be legalized and we should be allowed to choose as many spouses as we please. We should be allowed to form bigger families than just two people and children. Men should be allowed to have two or three wives if they want. Or five or six or seven. Women should be allowed to have two or three husbands if they want. Or five or six or seven. Who in the hell would only have ONE best friend. Who in the hell would only have one person in their family who loved them. Polygamy is good for polyamory and free love. Life *is* about loving relationships. This solves the question of gay marriage also. So you can have brother-husbands and sister-wives (when you marry your spouse's spouse; a non-sexual friend/loved one of the same sex). With Polygamy you should have to get your other spouse's(') consent before you marry a subsequent spouse. If you don't get their consent then it's Bigamy. The question is how much of your wealth should be split when you divorce. When you marry one person, you split it all and keep 50%. When you marry two people, you split it three ways or keep 50% and split 50% two ways. I'm with keeping 50% for myself I think. Also you could be married to different numbers of people than your spouses, if your spouses weren't married to each other, but you should only be entitled to the same percentage of their wealth that they are entitled to of yours. If your spouse wants to marry someone, you can say "no" and they can say let me marry another or divorce me, and you can say divorce me, or "okay you can marry. "Or you can say that they can only marry the other if you can marry the other also. Money may play a large role here. Like if your spouse is very rich, you might not want them marrying another because there goes some of their wealth that you were entitled to. Unless the person who they are going to marry is also very rich, and you can marry them also. If your spouses new spouse to be is as rich or richer than your spouse, then you could place the condition on your spouses marriage, that your spouse(s) can only marry the new spouse if you can marry the new spouse also. There are Mormons living in suburban Utah who are polygamous anyway, and they should be allowed to have that legally recognized - marriage is just for money. But if some girl is staying home and taking care of your children she should be entitled to some of your money legally. Thus legalized Polygamy is a necessity for people who cohabit in groups as husbands and wives. Then everyone earns an more equal percentage of the worker's earnings. As it is today, if a wife lives as a second spouse of a married couple, and later divorces, she is legally entitled to none of her husband's money. This is unfair. The State shouldn't have to recognize marriage until whatever age it specificies. In my preference, age 18, unless the girl is pregnant and they get a waiver before a judge, that they are making their own free choices and are cognizant like a 16 year old who gets emancipated. But really, all marriage legally is, is a binding of financial fortunes. Truly marriage exists in the hearts of all the married people. If everyone makes about the same amount of money then legal marriage doesn't even matter. Polygamy is good for polyamory and free love. Free love is not all inclusive, just less exclusive. Life *is* about loving relationships. Polygamy is good because there will be less divorce. This matters when there's children. Instead of getting divorced you can get another spouse, and wait until your kids are 18 and out of the house and gone away to college. This is often better for the children. It's good because the children have several mothers and several fathers and more support from adults. Families are richer and stronger. Okay hopefully we'll have marriage freedom in the near future. ---------------------------------------------------------------- *There was an old fellow of Lyme Who lived with three wives at one time. When asked, 'Why the third?' He replied, 'One's absurd, and bigamy, sir, is a crime.' |

Probably not. I have been asked if I believe in Polygamy. My answer is that I am married to a woman. It only FEELS like I am married to several.

I can't begin to imagine dealing with more than one wife. That must loose estrogen is truly frightening. |
