Title: Legalise Polygamy? Post by greggerypeccary on Dec 13th, 2016 at 3:50pm Legalise it here in Australia, or not? Personally, I don't like marriage. Not my thing. However, if a bunch of people want to get married to each other, why should anyone stop them? Consenting adults, of course. If three women wanted to marry three men, and all live together in a bisexual polygamous marriage, I can't see the problem. |

You can shack up with as many willing partners as you can find. As long as there are no calls on the taxpayer to support them and all the kids, you can can do that now.
Marriage is about privilege and state sanction = access to state support. |

Nobody mentioned kids, or taxpayer support. Polygamy is the practice of having more than one wife or husband at the same time. Should it be legalised in Australia? I can't see why not. |

There are two issues with polygamy. One is legal, and quite complex. The other is moral, which is not something that can be debated. Some people will not recognise this what ever is said. Personally, I would say polygamy is immoral, and I do not follow a religion. |

For any male who'd want multiple wives...wtf you want two of them in your house? For any male who wants to be one of multiple husbands, hope you're alpha enough not to have to settle for slops. My advise for men. Don't marry early, have a shitton of crazy sex with as many women as you can. Find an awesome woman and get married...the end. |

Keysar Trad has been calling for muslims to be allowed to have Polygamy for quite some time, he says it offers women rights. google.com.au/?gws_rd=ssl#q=keysar+trad+polygamy When is little pecca going to be a man and honour his bet with Bias, little pecca said he would leave this forum if Trump won the election, Trump won it's time for little pecca to keep his word and piss off from this forum |

Have to stop your maniacal rant right there, sorry. This thread has nothing to do with religion, or with taking sides. If you want to discuss your irrational fear of religion, take it to another thread where you and your fellow Islamophobes can circle jerk to your hearts' content. This is about polygamy: the practice or custom of having more than one wife or husband at the same time. If a woman wants four husbands, why should anyone stand in her way? |

Title: Re: Legalise Polygamy? Post by issuevoter on Dec 15th, 2016 at 10:35am
Although we share the reproductive imperative, we are not the same as dogs who, for survival, will copulate with as many females in season as possible. Human beings are not only driven by instinct, they are self-aware in a capacity far in advance of those species whose lives are dictated solely by instinct. Or at least, that is what our self-awareness tells us.
Equality in our societies has become an important moral issue, but it is possible some of us function on a lower level of development. Societies make rules to address these discrepancies. From the earliest times such applications have been thought generally worthwhile. Morals are attitudes that see those rules as desirable. No moral has any value, if it does not have a civilising effect, accordingly, civilisation has been a matter of degree. Pedantic types will need a definition of civilisation, but that is for another discussion. Suffice it to say that civilisation had to begin somewhere, and as cooperation for the common good must be part of any definition, that development can be assumed with some accuracy. How do I know this? Because, like greater minds than mine, “I hold these truths to be self-evident.” If I saw a person in the street being stabbed, I would know that was wrong. I don't need a moral. Some lower level people might. It has been said that Civilisation began with cooperation while gather food, but there are animals that do that. The first true cooperation was when a male protected a female during and after pregnancy. We may assume this was firstly a matter of the perpetuation of the genetic line, but at some point empathy between the parents must have developed. Why empathy? Perhaps for a closer bond. The single male was not capable of protecting and providing for more than one pregnant female, or female and infant, at a time. Polygamy requires a power structure to defend the single male harem owner. Don't start blathering about females with multiple men. That is not Polygamy in any major culture. It is all very well to cite one wife or ten wives as just a matter of numbers, but it completely dismisses any equality or mutual respect between the sexes. This is only practiced in societies dominated by males, and whose development of civilisation is stagnant. Once having established power, they are free to dictate the rules, to the extent that simple women will accept them as morals. Show me otherwise. Such a society does not expect much from its women other than obedience. Is dismissing the capacity of half the population a moral or civilised choice? If anyone thinks so, I suggest they take a closer look at their own motives, if they are capable. |

The bullsh1# being expounded here is typical of the way forumites don't bother thinking things through. What have we got, a few five word sound bites? Were are all these one woman multiple men marriages practiced? Polygamy is a male trip, and a bad one at that.

It's a hypothetical, Einstein. Should polygamy be made legal in Australia, so that a woman can marry three husbands if she wishes to do so? And, regarding it being a bad trip: there are monogamous marriages all over Australia, and the world, in which men are abusing their wives and/or children. Does this then mean that monogamous marriage is "a bad male trip"? Perhaps all marriage should be banned. |
