I would only enter a polygamist relationship if the third spouse was loved by both of us, and if we prove that our menage à trois can survive the daily routine.

Those are the conditions for a successful monogamous marriage. Why wouldn't it work in a polygamous marriage?

Let me reponder the question when I've got one wife.

But from the the ego-trip perspective, it would probably be neater to have multiple female servants you had sexual access too.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

technically, in Zimbabwe, the consitution is colour blind and you cannot disriminate on the basis of race, colour creed etc etc. There are also two marriage acts. One is the traditional marriage act which is strictly manogamous. The other is the customary law act, which is based on tribal custom and is polygamous. However, when based on the constitution, it is theoretically possible for a european woman to get married in Zimbabwe to multiple husbands, provided all weddings are under the customary act. Anyone willing to undergo a test case?

For the record I voted nay, why would you want more than one woman in your life?
