(961 posts)That doesn't mean that laws can't be passed to accommodate multi-person marriage.
Drinking alcohol contributes to the abuse of women and children. My wife works at a women's shelter and can testify to just how many have barely escaped with their life those type of relationships. You ready to outlaw alcohol?
Because there is a potential for some relationship to be abusive is no excuse to disallow that relationship. Feminist are in favor of women having choice, and a natural extension would be a woman's ability to choose to enter a multi-partner marriage if they so desire. Someone who tells me they're a feminist and then says women shouldn't have that choice is automatically telling me they're really not a feminist.
It's going to eventually be legal. And a bunch of people who were against same sex marriage are going to get in your face and yell "I told you so!!" But you'll get over it.
