Whoever is for polygamy should be ok with their other half having polygamous relationships too.
That’s why I disagree with a certain group who think it’s ok to have a harem of women but it’s not ok for them to even look at another man.
I don't really like to advertise this because people are weird. I have 2 husbands. We live together and share 3 children. We've been a family like this for over 18 years and are very happy. We have well-adjusted kids who love their dads and thrive on having 2 very attentive fathers while many of their peers have absent ones.
It's not a kink so don't even try asking about my bedroom life. I won't answer and you'd be bored anyway.
@Babylon specifically how?
I don't have to explain a lot thankfully because we all happen to have similar features many outsiders assume one is a partner and one is a relative. We don't typically introduce ourselves with relationship titles and they don't ask. We don't lie but we also don't volunteer unnessisary information because who's business is it really? If someone asks "what dose your husband do?" I'll just go with one or the other.
@JamieDeer just more so the fathering of the children. That was my main interest. I always imagined that the fathers would remain separate and focus on their own children but you describe otherwise which makes sense but I've just never seen or experienced parenting like that in action 😅
So you can imagine my human curiosity of course
@Babylon I know a few "step" fathers who are simply dad including my own father who isn't my biological dad so I guess it isn't weird for me. I doubt I could love someone so selfish like that anyway.

Interesting question though
@Carlisle when you're kept from something you want by someone else, you seek it more sometimes. To keep people from certain things is the point of laws, but there will always be people who wanted that forbidden thing and think it was a good thing for them, if that makes sense.

Some other people, they trust lawmakers and worship them in a sense. Whatever the lawmaker writes, they take it to be good and abide by it.

We ban lots of bad things but only certain things increase in desire publicly when banned. This is because public opinion on certain things or the zeitgeist may hold something as acceptable, kinda like how drugs have been banned in the U.S. and are sought after even more in America. Driving under the influence was another thing that was banned here for example, but you don't find the majority of people increasing or fighting more to drink and drive as much. Accidents by drunk driving in teens has gone down annually, but everyone likes to drink. It's not that banning it has particularly made it more or less appealing, it's that people don't wanna do it

Hopefully this articulates what I was trying to highlight 😅
That it's dependent on the desires of the people. If they want certain privileges and think it's good, banning them tends to have that inverse effect of increased desire, because they're out of tune with the law

@Babylon I think wanting sex and having sex is a desire that is overly policed in some countries. Human desires are not criminal if they don’t hurt someone.
Anyway I have my opinions which you probably won’t like and I don’t want to get into.
So let’s leave it at that
@Carlisle I actually agree with you with the policing of wanting sex tbh

We'll leave it however you want but I sure hope you are holding back because you think I won't like it 😅
I actually enjoy hearing from others. It's a means for me to think and grow so feel free to share with me if you ever want to. At most, I'll probably get curious and ask for a little detail but it's whatever you're comfy with

live and let live - it wouldn't work for me but good luck to them.
Not for me but if everyone involved is happy, consenting then I have no issue with it
