That's not how it works. They have separate households and the man takes turns spending time in each home.
That may be the way it is. But that ain't the way I'd run it.

RE: Polygamy Now Legal in Utah, Court Legislates
Ok, let's play a game. Suppose a guy has 3 wives and one of them is the major bread winner and now she wants a divorce, does she also pay for the other bimbos who remained the guy's wives? What about any kids? If they had 3 moms and one wants to leave, do they stay with the 2 moms if they can provide a better living environment?
These people might not have thought this thing through.

If marriage isn't a states rights issue like same sex marriage then polygamy should be legal in all 50 states.

RE: Polygamy Now Legal in Utah, Court Legislates
California Congresswoman, Rep. Jackie Speier CA (D), wants to federalize a state law to prohibit counseling to change a person’s sexual orientation. That doesn’t sound that extreme, but pedophilia is a sexual orientation according to this bill as well.
Under the bill’s language, a mental health counselor could be sanctioned if there was an attempt to get a pedophile or gay individual to change his behavior or speak negatively about their behavior as it relates to sexuality.

Because it's another fragment in our culture and another shot at traditional marriage. This is the kind of stuff that creates societal breakdowns.

Historically speaking nothing is more traditional than polygamy. It's just not socially acceptable in this day of age. Personally, I'm struggling finding a wife, let alone two.

That does not change the problem of being nagged by multiple broads.

As long as you get yours, to hell with the moral fiber of this country.
Let's allow adults to marry children and animals.
While one wife is all I care to have who am I to say someone can't have more than one if all involved are consenting? A man can live with as many women as he wishes, have as many children as he wants to with them, but if he chooses to make a commitment to them only then is it against the law.
exactly, and when some fringe group wants to marry children and animals you'll totally be ok with that. Who are we to object?
I don't think you got the point I was trying to make. If I can go out and find 3 willing women I can live with them, have kids with them, and the law won't bother me. Only if I marry them does the law have a problem. Seems arbitrary to me.
I don't think marriage between consenting adults is comparable to child and animal abuse.
Why would that be child abuse if they are consenting? Do you decide what is child abuse? So if man and can find a consenting 9 year old to live with you'd be ok with that because only the law would say it is wrong?
What part of consenting adults are you not grasping? I'm not arguing over the law against statutory rape. I'm saying if a man is foolish enough to want more than one wife and all are consenting adults then why should it be against the law?
