What are you defining "single polygamy" as? An example would be great.

You do know that there are groups that do that just fine, right?

For example, the Musuo people in China have free love, where women and men can have as many partners as they choose (Most do practice serial monogamy though), and get along just fine.

Also, what the hell is single polygamy?

I think he means dudes only can have multiple spouses.

I wonder if this would result in gay men having truly enormous numbers of spouses.

Ah yes, the so called "walking marriages", quite an interesting concept, based on what I have read.

I am not sure that is what Keshiland means by "single polygamy". We will just need to wait for him to provide clarification of what he means.

This is what I mean. It will get to complicated and I don't need anything past single being legalised because it will screw up everything for the rest of use who will have rediculious rulings thanks to the polygamy chain.
OOC- I am a Prolife Liberal who is Anti Gun, Pro Immigration, Pro UHC, Pro financial aid, and anything that makes children's lives better. I am also eco-friendly.

1. Well that seems rather unfair to the women now, doesn't it? Oh sorry, I forgot who I was asking...
2. See my above explanation of the Musuo people

You could make some serious money figuring out that income tax filing.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

Yep.

And if you don't want to take part in those, you don't have too, the choice is left completely to the individual.

Well now I'm in 100% favor of such arrangements. I was like 80% before, but you've convinced me the rest of the way.

No, it's what happens when scientific sanction replaces our poetic disposition in driving us, when science becomes a god rather than a tool.

I think it can work if its multiple wives, but not if its multiple husbands. Mostly when it comes to kids, You know whose is whose if there is 1 husband but if there are multiple then you don't and if something was to happen you would be screwed.


Frankly, I think that we, as a society, need to stop being so fucking obsessed with such ridiculously minor issues.
