People are okay with the idea of polygamy because they are ignorant and think of consenting orgy. The reality is a very sexist system that devalues women mostly. Ironically it is less condemned today in the face of increasing girl power.

I think that's in part to the success of Sister Wives. They do paint it in a very positive manner even if it is in the respect of a fundamentalist Mormon family. My wife loves that show. I respect their religious freedom, but it's a shit show for me.

I'm OK with Polygamy as long as all members of the relationship are happy and no one person has say over the others in the relationship.
