Interesting, but very short... I'd love to see a more in-depth discussion about this!

I think that freedom of being able to marry who and what you want is important. I think that multiple parties in a consensual agreement should have every right to be in whatever state of relationship that they want.

However, I also think that if a system were put in place where polygamy were freely allowed, many people would be convinced, coerced or forced into being in such a marriage. I believe that some people would enjoy the "power" of "controlling" multiple people, that we could very easily end up with a place where people are subdued into being a secondary wife, and that it could quickly devolve into having a type of polygamous slavery.

PS, the link you linked is about drug users and black men in prison, not polygamy. I'm not sure which you intended....

    another report says he could burst a band fastened around his brow by inhaling air and causing the temple veins to swell.

This is where I'm hoping to get to ;)

Haha, slim odds of it choose that moment in the video... but sex sells, right?

This video is brilliantly creative, I love it.

I definitely agree with you: very little actual discussion! I much prefer the comment section on Hubski, although I suppose I have only started to scratch the surface of it.
