Is our view (on a cultural level) shifting toward polygamy? (marrying, husband)

Great. All the whiney "woe is me, the world is against me and all other men" posters here are going to zero in on this post and use it as further proof that the dating world is so much harder for men than women!

I know, when you're a piece of meat you can choose whichever wolf you want to scarf you down in two minutes.

They are out there all over the place

Some are obvious and other have no problems letting it be know by all.

All I can say is

Dear America

There is an entire UNIVERSE out there that doesn't even know what polygamy or fundamental Christianity IS.

Let alone Mormonism.

So no, the world view is not shifting. It may seem like it is from Middle USA, but from the outside looking in >>>>nope.

Of course, everything is about perspective and point of view... that basically goes without saying....

The problem is is that most people don't think that way, they think there their universe is the universe and obviously it's not.

In terms of poly unless someone is open about it, you'd never know.. so we can all sit back and speculate how popular it is, or isn't......until you have hard data from viable sources no one truly knows....

Then we're back to our universe theory.....

Well... Find me a polygamist family who aren't Mormon fundamentalists, and I'll find you an Arab riding on a magical carpet.
