I'm all for it.

You've got to be a special kind of crazy to want more than one spouse.

That said, why should I care again?

And so the interesting legal implications kaleidoscope begins to rotate anew. Imagine all the possible combinations available. Inheritance? Health insurance? Tax exemptions? Marriage between corporate officers or corporate boards? What have I missed?

Had to see it coming on the heels of M/M and F/F marriage.

Get Government out of interpersonal contracts.

"Marriage equality for all" .... do they mean it? Do they also support cousin, sibling, or parent/child marriages? I'm not condoning or condemning, just asking if "equality for all"really means for all.

I think everyone should have the right to be miserable. I don't care who others want to marry. It truly is none of my business.

I'm more in favor of gay marriage than polygamy but whatever. People will engage in these lifestyles regardless of whether they are legally recognized or not.

Personally, I only play for one team and I don't share but I believe consenting adults should have the right to follow their hearts if they so desire.

Write up the marriage contract, have everyone sign, and BOOM, problem solved. From a government and legal perspective, anyway. This doesn't have to be hard at all.

My advise on this situation.

1. It's important to have a woman who helps at home,
cooks from time to time, cleans up, and has a job.

2. It's important to have a woman who can make you
laugh.

3.. It's important to have a woman whom you can trust,
and doesn't lie to you.

4.. It's important to have a woman who is good in bed,
and likes to be with you.

5.. It's very, VERY important that these four women
do not know each other.

OK, now that's funny!

 

[Kutnupe14]

I'm all for it.

I triple... no quadruple the sentiment.

My breakdown:
1. The smart wife-Asian
2. The hot wife-Latina
3. The chef wife-Black
....and the most important
4. The wife that punches women in the face, that I cannot, because I am a man.-White

Why not legalise it? It's already accepted in many western states among the mormons out there and I'm sure there are more than a few muslims who are in polygamous marriages. As long as everyone's a consenting adult I don't see what the fuss is. Lots of adult support to raise kids and make money to support the family. There's certainly biblical support of it, so the evangelicals shouldn't be getting their noses out of joint over this one, as they do over gay marriage. I'd think they'd be on the train for this one. While we're at it, make sure the definition includes polyandry, as well and probably group marriages, with multiple male and female partners. With the economy the way it is a group marriage makes a lot of sense, from an economic standpoint.

I told my cousin that beastiality conviction would get overturned some day.

If this comes to pass I demand the right to marry my Sig 556.

And the uncontrolled sociological experiment continues. Problem is, by the time we find out how bad it screws up society, it's too late...

If the libs thought that it would destroy society quicker, then yes, they would be in favor of all the above. Man, this world is screwed up. Can it get any worse?
