minus-squareNorah - She/They@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·17 days agoPersonally, thanks to polygamy’s history and recency to current times, yes, I think being married to multiple people is a bad idea. I’m for keeping it illegal until we can be sure it won’t be used like that again. I don’t think now is that time.
minus-squareSwedneck@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up0·17 days agoi really don’t like that reasoning, that sounds way to close to the reasoning used to make gay marriage illegal. Who are you to decide whether i get to marry the people i love?
