In a polygamist situation, are all the wives married to each other, or are they each singly and only married to the man?



I'm not exactly sure to be honest, but I think they are all married to the man, but the arument could be, why should a woman be kept from marrying the man she "loves" just because he's allready married if he and his current wife both consent?



There is an argument to be made that women who are willing to do this are, in fact, debasting themselves, lowering their status as an equal within the marriage just "to get their man."



I would agree with you entirely and yet there are people who would make similar if not the same arguments about same sex marraiges. I'm not saying there aren't compelling value judgements to be made. I'm just asking if you want the government to make value judgements. I for one do.
