Should polygamy be legal?
Why not? How is it different from gay weddings?
Marriage used to be between a man and a woman. Why not between 3 or more. Why should we discriminate on how people want to live.

If it's between three (or more) mutually consenting adults (with no deception, everyone involved knows and agrees) it's hard to come up with a clear explaination of who would be harmed by allowing this. But my observation (from watching a number of people try it) has been that 3-way relationships seem to be less stable than couples (perhaps partly because they have so many more ways to go wrong).

No way. How can you compare polygamy to gay marriage? The sole purpose of marriage is for commitment so what's the point of walking down the aisle if you don't want to be with that ONE person forever? The truth of the matter is, polygamists make a mockery of marriage.

hey maybe should gay marriages be legal how about allowing childeren marry pedifiles, should we allow a third person in a marriage could all 3 love and care for each other see it doesnt make sense why we should even have broached gay marriage in the first place.

That depends on who you're asking. I know that polygamy is a difficult lifestyle, at best, and is definitely not for everyone.
