CDZ What should we do with polygamy?

[RKMBrown]

So much depends on demographics.

In most countries the male/female ratio manages to balance itself out (though not perfectly) all by itself.

In India and China there are wide disparities as gender selective abortions are common. Indeed, in China, almost the norm because of now fading but still existing "one child" laws. In Japan the disparity is not in raw numbers but is attributed to educated women eschewing marriage altogether!

It has been shown that in cases of wide disparity with a surplus of males prostitution becomes rampant and crime, particularly rape and abuse, get out of control.

Stretch your mind to the fullest extent your party allows. Can you imagine a society in which plural marriage (one woman, two or more males) are not just accepted but encouraged or mandated?

Before replying, please re-read the paragraph immediately above and consider whether you're up to the challenge.

Ayup.. government gets involved (China) creates a massive problem... that only government can solve. Well that's the theory. Another theory would be instead of giving government the power to fix their screw ups... getting government out of the business of regulating our personal relationship decisions.

So no thoughts for the children these polygamists have and the unique form of child abuse that occurs from this lifestyle? That's men for you, thinking only about the variety of sex they can have and not the consequences.

Whatever you say, Senator Cruz......

Having lived in Utah for 8 years I can tell you these kids suffer greatly.
Especially if they try to leave the cult and join the outside world.

Polygamy is being married to multiple spouses. It comes in two main forms: polyandry (marriage to multiple husbands) and polygyny (marriage to multiple wives). The FLDS variant of polygyny is an abusive cult lifestyle. It is not entirely synonymous with polygamy as a whole.

Oh you mean Muslim polygamy is cool. No abuses there.

I'm not really a fan since only men can do it. We can't allow the sexual slavery aspect. Who am I to say that Karim can't marry Salima and Hafsa at once though?

You are US law, where it's illegal for Karim to marry them both, based on the fact that we have rejected polygyny because we have found it to be a breeding ground for abuse and human rights violations...not to mention a recipe for poverty.

Human rights violations my ass

Well once again, your ass doesn't know it's own sphincter from a hole in the ground.

Polygamists are people. But legalizing polygamy will make your children to behave their mother little different. And next and next generations will change each other, and today's image of a family will never be returned. Monogamy is necessary for our society to remember what is love.

I see. So because you don't want to be a polygamist you don't want me or my children or your children to be polygamists. All cause you know what's best for us. Thanks.

[danielpalos]

Why it is still illegal? if polygamy is a part of your religion? I'm not talking about compounds with prophets assigning wives to old men, I mean families that are just trying to follow their beliefs, no abuse. Ok I have a new question: If polygamy is illegal, meaning you cannot marry more than one person, then why do families living in the suburbs face arrests and criminal charges for practicing it even though legally the man is only married to 1 woman. Say a man is sleeping with his secretary and she get's pregnant and he has children from his wife and now his secretary, why does he not get arrested?
You must admit that all this legalization of homosexual marriages is to lead to allowing polygamy in the US.
Who cares?

You'd be surprised I think. Look at all the "baby" daddy families. Mothers without a dad... Is that only because the guy is "absent" or is it because the guy has many women?

As for gay marriage... yeah well it was illegal to even be gay not to far back. Let's see where the percentage goes after it's legal and no longer ostracized.

I believe Muslims may be "inadvertently" in a better position to help feminists with their feminine Cause; by insisting Men should have to marry any "probationary wife" they should get pregnant.

Yeah, let's legalize all the shit perverts dream about and see what'll happen to country.

I believe polygamy may be one solution for women who may claim, they can't find any more nice guys.

Why it is still illegal? if polygamy is a part of your religion? I'm not talking about compounds with prophets assigning wives to old men, I mean families that are just trying to follow their beliefs, no abuse. Ok I have a new question: If polygamy is illegal, meaning you cannot marry more than one person, then why do families living in the suburbs face arrests and criminal charges for practicing it even though legally the man is only married to 1 woman. Say a man is sleeping with his secretary and she get's pregnant and he has children from his wife and now his secretary, why does he not get arrested?
You must admit that all this legalization of homosexual marriages is to lead to allowing polygamy in the US.
Who cares?

Polygamy is illegal because it is abusive to women. Period. It should stay illegal. All modern, forward thinking cultures forbid polygamy in the same way they forbid child abuse, bigamy, and other behaviors that subjugate and abuse others.

Polygamy is illegal because it is abusive to women. Period. It should stay illegal. All modern, forward thinking cultures forbid polygamy in the same way they forbid child abuse, bigamy, and other behaviors that subjugate and abuse others.

I believe polygamy may be one solution for women who may claim, they can't find any more nice guys.

 

[RKMBrown]

As for gay marriage... yeah well it was illegal to even be gay not to far back. Let's see where the percentage goes after it's legal and no longer ostracized.

Yeah, let's legalize all the shit perverts dream about and see what'll happen to country.

Yeah, like legalizing the perverted shit people like you do to people who are not like you.

 

[Esmeralda]

Why it is still illegal? if polygamy is a part of your religion? I'm not talking about compounds with prophets assigning wives to old men, I mean families that are just trying to follow their beliefs, no abuse. Ok I have a new question: If polygamy is illegal, meaning you cannot marry more than one person, then why do families living in the suburbs face arrests and criminal charges for practicing it even though legally the man is only married to 1 woman. Say a man is sleeping with his secretary and she get's pregnant and he has children from his wife and now his secretary, why does he not get arrested?

I have no problem with polygamy so long as they can afford their lifestyle without begging the taxpayer to help support them. There was a Mormon polygamist family on welfare and that to me is absolute horse crap.

So no thoughts for the children these polygamists have and the unique form of child abuse that occurs from this lifestyle? That's men for you, thinking only about the variety of sex they can have and not the consequences.

Having lived in Utah for 8 years I can tell you these kids suffer greatly.
Especially if they try to leave the cult and join the outside world.

Agree. This type of lifestyle is very abusive to children. I watched a documentary about a child in Turkey whose father had several wives and many children, so many children that this child had very little fathering from his dad. His father barely knew who he was and did not spend any significant time with him because he was working all the time and spreading all his attention among a great number of children.

Of the documentaries I've seen about polygamy in Utah, it seems that the women all work and contribute to the household. That sucks if you are a woman. You share your husband with a bunch of other women, have a lot of kids, and still have to work. What an pathetic existence.

Why it is still illegal? if polygamy is a part of your religion? I'm not talking about compounds with prophets assigning wives to old men, I mean families that are just trying to follow their beliefs, no abuse. Ok I have a new question: If polygamy is illegal, meaning you cannot marry more than one person, then why do families living in the suburbs face arrests and criminal charges for practicing it even though legally the man is only married to 1 woman. Say a man is sleeping with his secretary and she get's pregnant and he has children from his wife and now his secretary, why does he not get arrested?
You must admit that all this legalization of homosexual marriages is to lead to allowing polygamy in the US.

I have no problem with polygamy so long as they can afford their lifestyle without begging the taxpayer to help support them. There was a Mormon polygamist family on welfare and that to me is absolute horse crap.

So no thoughts for the children these polygamists have and the unique form of child abuse that occurs from this lifestyle? That's men for you, thinking only about the variety of sex they can have and not the consequences.

Having lived in Utah for 8 years I can tell you these kids suffer greatly.
Especially if they try to leave the cult and join the outside world.

Agree. This type of lifestyle is very abusive to children. I watched a documentary about a child in Turkey whose father had several wives and many children, so many children that this child had very little fathering from his dad. His father barely knew who he was and did not spend any significant time with him because he was working all the time and spreading all his attention among a great number of children.

Of the documentaries I've seen about polygamy in Utah, it seems that the women all work and contribute to the household. That sucks if you are a woman. You share your husband with a bunch of other women, have a lot of kids, and still have to work. What an pathetic existence.

sounds like the Right needs to learn about division of labor.
