I think most men would be ok with marriage being defined as 'between a man and... women'

A Mormon onced challenged Mark Twain to show him in the Bible where it says that bigamy was not allowed. MT turned to the passage that says, "No man shall serve two masters".

I read a fascinaing article about a real human hermaphrodite (intersex).

http://www.amhersttimes.com/index.ph...2860&Itemid=27

In it she relates this about her mom's decision to "repair" her abnormality:

Chase says that her own mother’s discomfort with and ignorance about sexuality contributed to the decision to have Chase’s clitoris amputated. When Chase flew from Japan to Florida to discuss her childhood with her mother, she also quizzed her mother about sex. “No, I don’t know what human genitals look like, exactly,” Chase’s mother told her. “I have never looked at myself, and I never looked closely at my children. The doctor said your clitoris had to go. Mine never meant anything to me, so I didn’t think it was wrong to remove yours.”

I hate to say it, but that sounds like MY mom! How I got out of that house without being completely warped I'll never know.

I've heard alot of proponents of gay marriage say that legalization in no way legalizes polygamy, but that just doesn't make any sense. Isn't the bedrock of the argument that we do not have the right to judge the sexual preferences of others? That human sexuality has always had many different forms and is fluid in and of itself? Without joking, how many here think that if we legalize gay marriage we should extend the same rights to polygamists? I'm talking mainstream here, not these little wacko camps
