[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm just curious....

If we accept gay people as being ok because they love who they love and all that.  
And we accept transgendered people because they were born in the wrong body, etc...

[b]Why cant we accept polyamory[/b]?  Is it for me?  Absolutely not.  But if 3 or more people consent and care about each other what does it really matter? [/quote]

Being gay or whatever gender isn't a choice.  Polyamory is definitely a choice.  I don't need to "accept" or normalize your choice of who/how many people you sleep with or swing with any more than you need to accept my bad poetry into your poetry journal.  If you choose to be polyamorous, own it and stop looking for others to validate your choices or agree with you so that you can feel accepted by society for your choices. And I say this as the poster upthread who mentioned the disastrous love quadrangle that involved buying/selling a house together, as well as the introduction of babies born into this mess (who are coincidentally being raised as genderless) and then the faux divorce and dissolution of the quadrangle.

Doesn't change the fact that being gay or gender binary was illegal for much of the last century (as in you could be locked up for buggery) and only in the last five years was actually recognized as a valid legal act of marriage.

It's still illegal to be openly transgender in the military.

Polygamy is a different thing entirely than being gay or gay marriage.  Polygamy has historically been used to exploit, coerce, and abuse woman and girls.  If polygamy becomes legal here, the consequences will be similar to basically every culture where polygamy is considered socially and legally acceptable.  It is bad for women. [/quote]

Polygamy based on religious pre-cepts (see Mormonism and Islam) has been used to exploit, coerce, and abuse women and girls.

As far as I can tell this is a polyamorist throuple who have an equal and balanced relationship and its not just about the man having sex with two women since everyone is into everyone else.

A good example of this

But you can't make plural marriage legal or socially acceptable and then tell religious people they can't have 4 wives.  If we accept throuples and multiple marriages, we have to accept polygyny too, and the result will have negative consequences for many women.[/quote]

You can if you regulate religious compounds (no more tax breaks and semi-independent authority) and cults plus send in child protective services at the least sign of abuse (I don't care if they live on a suburban cul-de-sac in Utah). [/quote]
