As long as the women involved are cool with it, then rock on. However, until the laws and tax codes catch up, being legally married to more than one woman isn't going to happen

Now that I wouldn't object to; if one husband is too tired or otherwise indisposed, I'd always have back-up

If someone wants to have a polygamous marriage or open relationship...I don't care.

It just won't be with me.

polygamy has been practiced, in various cultures, almost as long as the human race has been around. in feudal japan, a man could have only one wife, officially, but he could have many official concubines, and many unofficial concubines. in the middle east, islam allows, in general, a man to have a maximum of three wives, though some of the higher ups have many more than that legally.

in the end i personally dont care, as long as the families are properly cared for without going on government assistance, knock yourself out.

Sure polygamy is illegal and "immoral" yet there's nothing against guys who go around and sire multiple (or even numerous) children with different women -- and then don't support them.

I am the M in an MFF relationship and I love my partners are strongly as anyone I have met in couples love theirs - and I am no more guilty of objectification of my partners than any person in any other relationship is. So I not sure exactly what your comment means here to be honest.
