Polygamy should be legalized
"David" wrote in message ... 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. Monotony: 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. Golly................ But trigamy is legal? 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. There was an old party of Lyme Who married three wives at one time. When asked "Why the third?" He replied: "One's absurd, And bigamy, Sir, is a crime." I can't begin to imagine dealing with more than one wife. That must loose estrogen is truly frightening. ROTFL. It would be better to be one of several husbands in my opinion. That way you can get a rest occasionally. It is better one man one woman. Nah! Too much stress. Better, however, than the alternatives. It's the "least detrimental alternative." The lesser of two (or more) evils. Which is still evil, I grant. Just slightly less so than all the other options. |

Then there was the scientist who had a wife and a mistress. He explained that his wife thought he was with his mistress, his mistress thought he was with his wife and he was actually in his lab doing research. -- Regards David fundamentalism (n.): fund = give cash to; amentalism = brainlessness |
