Mrs. Somebody asked:

What is the legal or moral reason the homosexuals might give to not allow polygamist marriage? If you say ‘none’ and you are for polygamist marriage do you realize the absolute never-ending nightmare of property and parental rights cases due to polygamist divorce? But all are consenting adults, so how dare you stop them?

If we say we must redefine historical marriage to suit some newcomers, what is then the argument to stop all newcomers? We already scrapped the historical basis, so any objections after the fact have no defense.

It is called Pandora’s box. Historically it has been left for reasons additional to the obvious (family = mommy + daddy.)

Even if you were to ’split the baby’ so to speak and say polygamists cannot jointly share property, then that is not *actually* marriage (all new faux-civil rights mobs to look forward to, bigot!)

Also, polygamy is part of a society which demeans women.

How do we stop this historical rewriting of marriage, its consequences and ensuing injustice?
The point is what is your justification for ‘discriminating’ against polygamists? Simply defining marriage as a two-person institution does not give a REASON for leaving them out. We know it would complicate the courts but that is not a LEGAL REASON. If not allowing ‘gay marriage’ is discrimination then not allowing polygamist marriage (which actually has a historical background) is discrimination also and you must find a legal reason otherwise.
