Let's see if I get this clearly... what bothers you is the fact that you could CHOOSE to stick your penis inside another man's anus? There's an easy fix to that: choose NOT.

Choice should not intimidate you or cause you fear. Freedom of choice is the greatest and most valuable thing in the world.

and why not include some animals? after all a large part of americans think animals are better than people , so how about 3 woman, 1 man and a couple of goats get married? why not? anything should be legal, whatever feels good and makes you happy should be ok.

polygamy FTW!!!

^^ pretty much /threads it
WTF?! How is two people falling in love the same as any of those? Anyway, polygamy was outlawed because it usually meant slavery for the women who were "married" to their husband.

Your perverse homophobia has no place in our society.

Who's the perverse one?
One who sticks his penis in another man's anus
or
the one who thinks that's gross
or
the one who thinks sticking one's penis in another man's anus is "love" and thinks the one who thinks that's gross is a perverse homophobic?

Since when did "our" society throw morality out the door? Oh wait, it happened in the last 10-20 years in the history of civilized man.

Could you please explain, in a paragraph or less, why you feel you should be allowed to control others' lives, so long as the decisions they make don't affect unconsenting people (eg. crime, etc). Kudos on trumping even your prior idiocy which I sig-ized though

Since when did I say I wanted to control others' lives? If anything the homosexuals and polygamists are trying to force their doctrine on the rest of the population by pushing for same sex unions and polygamy. Last time I checked the word "marriage" meant 1 man 1 women. Go ahead and live your life the way you want but don't force your shvt on me. And I don't want to see you stick your penis is another man's anus either, do it in the bedroom and don't bark about it and make a fvcking movie about it.

hahah damn man you have issues!

marriage started out as a way for people to be a family. then the church got a hold of it and started the vows and having it be "legit"

as for the other stuff nobody is forcing you to watch the movie. if you do not want to see it do not go.

Yes I'm the one with the "issues" because I don't feel the need to CHOOSE to stick my penis inside another man's anus :roll:


yes you do have issues. here you are going off on something that NOBODY is forcing you do do. You have the CHOICE to have gay sex or watch a movie that has it. What anyone does (that is legal) in the privacy of there bedroom should not bother you.

Yes, and if 1 consenting adult allows himself to be killed and eaten by another consenting adult, it should be legal.

I thank God everyday ATOT represents 0.00001% of America.

If you're serious, you either have one hell of a sense of entitlement or are projecting hatred of your own repressed homosexuality. I'm leaning toward you being a troll though.

Sense of entitlement? Yes, let's increase taxes, increase social welfare, create national healthcare, recall all the dictionaries and reprint so marriage says a union between one person and another person. Oh and get rid of retirement accounts and go 100% social security. I feel like I'm entitled by the government to have them wipe my ass because I'm a hippie liberal that wants to mimic 10% unemployed Europe.

Definitely a troll. You need to work on your subtlety if you want to succeed.

You don't need to lecture me on how to "succeed." I didn't get to where I am today kissing ass and being politically correct and complacent. But hey, it's YOUR life; do wtf you want.

There's nothing "political correct" about expressing a tolerance of polygamy. One may as well express a desire to see heroin legalized.

You're pretty much a talking point moron.

I was referring to your attempts at trolling, as I clearly implied. And with your obvious lack of skill & experience, you definitely could use the pointer I threw your way.

Have you seen the polygamists out there? Every one of them look nerdy, creepy, etc... Most are womanizers, pedofiles, and rapists.....no matter what anyone says. They are pretty gross and it needs to be stopped.

It's not.

For some reason, I expected more from the con side of this argument than just weak straw men, ad homs, and emotional appeals.

while that is what you always see on tv i doubt it is true to real life.

the idea is good. having 2 people out working while 2 are home takeing care of the kids/house would work. LONG as all 4 adults (none of this forcing a 12yr old to merry 40+yr old guys) agree.

we already listed problems but i also see some benifits.

that is only because it is illegal

just like potheads are smelly hippies

if pot was legal, drug addicts would be much nicer

same with polygamy, if it was legal, then "nice" people would be doing it all over the place, the school principal, the doctors and pizza delivery dudes, they'd all have 3-4 wives. it wouldn't be creepy and weird anymore. just like how homosexuality has changed. it used to be "creepy and wierd" and associated with pedofiles and etc etc but now its mainstream since it is accepted by our secular society

just say yes to polygamy and have an open mind. its all about love and acceptance and hatred and exclusion of freedom

why shouldn't men or women be allowed to have multiple wives or husbands.. I think that it's time we expand our rather antiquated conceptions of marriage.

Come on now.. anthropologically, marriage is an economic principal, a way to redistribute resources and to allow people to work together - if people can make it work... they should be able to arrange themselves in any configuration they can imagine!

enjoy.

I say No

Domestic violence would increase a few folds if it's legalized...

Can 1 wife have multiple husbands then?

Anyway... the REAL reason why polygamy is currently not legal (and not going to become legal anytime soon) is because there is a roughly equal proportion of males and females in the US. Polygamous marriages most frequently occur in environments in which there is biological need. If something causes a shortage in one sex or other (typically war, which is why polygyny is the most common form of polygamy throughout history), then the other sex will agree to share in order to improve each individual's chances of reproduction.

Out of curiosity, why would you vote yet?

(I am married to one woman and that's plenty, if you get what I mean...)

I don't see what that has to do with anything. I don't have any interest in owning a pistol, but you don't see me saying pistols should be outlawed do you?

maybe for those who can't think animals can't consent to anything like marriage. not too long ago people like him would have made the same slippery slope arguement about overtuning antimescegenation laws that banned interracial relationships/marriage. marry blacks? what next? marry dogs? they'd say. but i guess homophobes will devalue something like marriage when desperate for an arguement.

it wouldn't work because of there aren't enough to go around and that would lead to a bunch of fustrated lonely males. and u know what that means, trouble..revolution etc. china is on the road to having 40 million single men in a decade or two because of their favoring male children. and so far we don't see women trying to marry two men, i don't think there is much of a desire that way, its mostly men that want harems. for that to work you would need to enforce abortion or enforced fertility treatment that made sure the female to male ratio was heavily skewed towards females.

No. I wouldn't want to share a wife with another man and neither would I want to deal with 2 women @ a time, one of them will surely feel more neglected. meh..

Piss poor argument. Animals are not and cannot be consenting adults unless and until you can prove that they fully understand the ramifications of the relationship. Other than that, who the hell are we to legislate morality among consenting adults?
