My thoughts on poly- relationships are complicated. When it comes down to it, the relationships where it seems like men are simply "collecting" wives like he would collect bottle caps, I am against.
All other poly- relationships, I am relatively okay with.

What are your thoughts on poly- relationships?

It's not like the wives are forced into it, and they can still get dicorved; there's no down side. I could see no way to support gay marriage but not this.

I have absolutely no problem with it. As long as everyone in the relationship consents, it's fine. Polygamist marriage seems like a complicated issue but if the time came that there was a movement pressing for the legalization of polygamist marriage I would probably support it.

My view on poly-relationships is the same as my view on gay marriage: what goes on between consenting adults is nobody's business but those involved.
I personally would never be in a polygamous relationship, that's just beyond my comfort zone. However, if the people are happy, why not? It's not hurting anyone. No one is being forced into it and they can leave the relationship at any time. I'm for marriage equality and polygamous marriages are no exeption.

I agree

I personally don't see how a relationship like that would work out, but if others can work it out and be happy, then great :)

Those satanists, trying to infuse their "atheistic" culture into out pride christian MURICA! How dare they! Next thing we'll be having sex with goats! Polygoatamy!

I'm all in favour of it. I'm interested in the bureaucratic implications of polygamy though. A LOT of rewriting would have to be done.

I totally agree.

Personally, I could see myself being in a poly-relationship. But as of right now (and the foreseeable future) I want to stay in a monogamous relationship with my SO.

I think they're just not right.
I feel like relationships are meant for two people, not 3+.

Although I personally would not be interested in one, I agree with everything that 'aristocats' said.

It's fine. I'd probably want it since I'd love more than one person equally and would like to have more than one person who loves me.
