Polygamy affects more people though. All the children, who have to get along with all their half-siblings, their many squabbling moms, and one worn out dad.
To: CJ Wolf
Or bi-sexual polygamy.
Good grief, the possibilities are endless....

My husband and I watched the HBO show, and it certainly doesn't make polygamy look like fun.
Yeah, the guy gets lots of sex, but all of the wives are demanding things like redecorating their homes, a new car, etc.
It really doesn't look good from a woman's point of view.
To: neverdem
Better than saying that love between two men means sex.
What a horrible state of society when we relate male bondage, love, admiration, adoration, and mutual respect as homosexual. It is no wonder there is so much violence among the ignorant.

We saw a little of the series "Big Love" on the HBO free preview weekend on DISH last weekend. Typical tv fare, wanting something unnatural to appear all sweethearts and roses. These three families all living side by side, sharing a husband and father, being so loving and not jealous or anything. It just ain't natural, I tell ya!

If you've ever seen anything on Louisiana's 'Southern Decadence Days', monogamy does not fit into the gay lifestyle. these guys are trying to distance themselves from polygamists and find they logically cannot because they use the same arguments, and when you examine their lifestyles and how many relationships they have that never last on average a couple years, and are in 'committed' relationships that allow for 'Thursdays off' and such, they really are living polygamist lifestyles. They're just trying to fool themselves.
To: neverdem
This line of argument makes gay activists furious. I can understand why they do not want to be in the same room as polygamists. But Im not the one who put them there. Their argument does. It may sound wierd, but even they have standards they won't cross...

Gay or eight wives, gay or eight wives... being single isn't an option, is it? How about suicide?
---
I've read articles about polygamous (Mormon) men.
They comment that with several wives at any particular time at least one of them is not mad at you.
So just hang out with her until the other(s) calm down.

homosexuality is an intrinsic state that occupies a deeper level of human consciousness.
My, isn't that special?

No, I think that means the writer of that sentence is full of, well, you know.
I suspect you think so too.

If marrying a member of the same sex is an intrinsic state, I don't see why marrying more than one wife can't be an intrinsic state too.

Gay marriage -> polygamy -> child marriage -> incest -> bestiality -> Hillary Clinton

All right, the first five are sick, but the sixth is just sick warped and perverted.

Andrew Sullivan,has called this the polygamy diversion, arguing that homosexuality and polygamy are categorically different because polygamy is a mere activity while homosexuality is an intrinsic state that occupies a deeper level of human consciousness. What transparent sophistry Sullivan employs. Any argument that advances his cause that can be "sold" to the ignorant masses, he'll use.
