Well, IMO there is nothing natural or Godlike about a legal marriage contract. If you think it should be legal to have multiple spouses imagine going thru a divorce. Now, X3.

Not just that, but what do you do if Wife A and Wife B want a divorce from you, but they still want to be married to one another, and Wife C wants to stay married to you and Wife B, but not Wife A, and you want to stay married to Wife A and Wife C and wish Wife B would take a hike ...

Now throw kids into the mix.
I just dont understand how people would think this could work like a 1:1 marriage. Too many variables.

Not only that, its 3 women. 3 birthdays to remember. 3 Valentines Day to remember (and which one are you going to take out on that exact day?). 3 anniversaries of when you met. 3 women to nag you. 3 women to tell you what you're doing wrong and how to do it right. 3 women talking to you at the same time. 3 women asking you if this dress makes them look fat. 3 women wanting to know who's cooking is better. 3 women wanting to know which of the 3 women is the prettiest. 3 women wanting to know if the other women are fatter and uglier than them.

Uh dude, just date. Don't move in with them.

Well, sure, if you have one crummy wife, then x3 would be a nightmare. Three of me would be pretty dang awesome, though. As long as one of the clones is on laundry and sandwich detail.

Women who live together or spend a lot of time together do often wind up with synchronized menstrual cycles.

LOL. What if he got the other two of you a better gift for Christmas and you got something a bit less?

And if he's going out with all 3 to a restaurant, all 3 will model dresses to see which one he likes and then the fight breaks out because 2 of the 3 women have the same red dress and all 3 women have the same blue dress.

Yeah, but its 3 incomes and 3 sex partners. The documentaries Ive seen on Mormon polygamists (outside of a compound) indicate the majority of the wives work or receive gov. assistance and often the husband does not live with all the wives at the same time. I can see where that might be appealing to a man.
