I would see the women and Kennedy and Breyer joining the conservatives, except for Scalia, who would opine, "want some."

It opens the definition of marriage to all sorts of chilling scenarios. Next time you see a couple of hairy transvestites with wedding rings think of the possibilities in the brave new world of liberalism.
If the 14th A means every person is entitled to the benefits of every other person regardless then there is no argument against anything that calls itself marriage. Love is love.I am saying I can't see the anti-polygamy laws surviving this Supreme Court, after the gay marriage ruling.I don't see how with the gay marriage supreme court ruling that the courts can deny this.
So what you are saying is you can't think of any reason why polygamous marriages should not be legal?
Why?
How do you think the Obergefell v. Hodges decision would apply to polygamy? Be specific.
That made absolutely no sense.If the 14th A means every person is entitled to the benefits of every other person regardless then there is no argument against anything that calls itself marriage.

You mean tha they have some non confederate states?I bet they're all the red states. The same states that were the last to segregate. The same ones that were the last to allow inerracial marriage, and probably all of the confederacy is representedYeah ask your wife about that one.I know the antigay marriage crowd says the slippery slope will lead to adults marrying children, but if you now the case law on children consent, you know that it won't go there. Minors don't have the mental capacity to consent to such a relationship. But I digress.
Polygamy is getting challenged as we say and I have no doubt it will be legalized fairly soon. Should it be? Do you have an issue with it? No doubt there will soon be mail order 2nd wives from Easter Europe starting soon.
I don't see how with the gay marriage supreme court ruling that the courts can deny this. So is America ready for polygamy? Personally I wouldn't mind a 2nd 20 something wife!
Yes we will get age of consent issues. In Europe age of consent is about 16, maybe younger in some places. There will be a push to lower it.
No, there are no restrictions on marriage that can stand scrutiny given the Court's assertion that all that matter is you love someone. Love is love.
The "age of consent" in the US is already 16 in 31 states.
For the most part you're right, but there are plenty of exceptions to that rule.

Because they, the far right Christians, no longer can. Many Mormon Christians are still pissed about it.Why do religious conservatives object to the right of Muslims to practice polygamy when it's blessed by the Koran?

Polygamy won't get a blessing from the SCOTUS because it's perceived as anti-woman.
Legalized prostitution is next.
Legalized prostitution is next.
There are a lot of women that want to work but can't find good paying jobs!!
Yeah ask your wife about that one.
