Hi there,
I am planning a radio documentary about marriage and was interested by your blog entry about polygamy. Do you know of anyone I could interview to get a pro-polygamous perspective? Email me at im_a_vaampire@hotmail.com if you can help me.
Regards,
Richard Matthews

Ummm not sure I do know anyone who is pro-polygamy. I suppose if it involves Jessica Simpson and Kylie Bax I could support polygamy but as a general rule I’m against it 🙂

Just curious David, but why are you against it? If all parties freely consent then theoretically there should be little objection to such an arrangement.

Are you sure you are against it DPF or is the truth that you just haven’t meet a partner who isn’t against it ?

If more than two people wish to live together as an extended couple that is not illegal. However calling it a marriage is another thing.

And I will make an observation that the vast majority of polygamous relationships tend to involve very evil creepy psychotic men, and a truckload of abused women and children.

Yeh right, did your pastor tell you that ?

This book is worth a read, it can be hard going in some parts but it explains in good detail the history of manogomy. The role of the church and the protection of lineage and the class structure etc.

David, were you inspired by the delightful if worrying tales about vegetables in Iraq that appeared on The Whig today.
You can be killed if they are arranged suggestively.
And your goats must have its thingummy covered so not to drive the muslims into a lustful frenzy!

They might have this on the front page of newspapers when Ulster becomes part of Eire.

I would say the problem is that the government wants to be involved in how people live together.
HOWEVER if we want to have a definition such that “a man/woman is parried to the first person of he opposite sex with which they form a “marriage contract” that’s ok as long as they themselves are free to define it differently.

as to ” the vast majority of polygamous relationships tend to involve very evil creepy psychotic men” I suggest it’s a bit like anything illegal
1) the media/society will highlight the examples that fit our perception
2) people who concentrate on looking normal will also tend to obey social mores – those who don’t are more likely to be “creepy”

Helen thinks the Exclusive Brethren are a scary religious sect, she might even use the word creepy, DPF thinks polygamous relationships are creepy…

It’s a shame really DPF, I never thought that like Helen you would just throw derogatory labels at things you didn’t understand.

I said the vast majority appeqar to be creepy with abusive evil old men such as Bert Potter etc, and are rife with child abuse which is very creepy.

Did I miss something here?

How the fuck did this thread become a discussion on DPF’s thoughts on marrying more than one chick?

Shit when I saw the picture at the top of this post I thought I was looking at one Helen Clark’s husbands holiday snaps from his last trip.
