Marriage feedback [inofficial Poll]

[Kraggy]

Of course, since people want 'gay' marriage, I assume polygamy is also wanted, because no one's asking for just 'their' pet likes to be implemented, are they. Polygamy is practiced in many parts of the real world.

I doubt however the pro-gays will be pushing for that social variant though.

Do not attempt to sidetrack the topic at hand. Polygamy is something else. If the polygamy community feels the need to address their issue, nothing is stopping them from starting a thread of their own to demand such a right. This topic though, is specifically for SSM.

Actually that's not true.
The topic name is "Marriage feedback".
That's what Kraggy did, he gave feedback.

And i think the question is quite legitimate -
when we respect one sexual minority - what about the others?

I know plenty of people who are fighting for polyamory, and I tell them all the same thing: You need to make your own argument for having more than one spouse, because you'll not have any success piggybacking on gay marriage.

First of all, the argument for gay marriage is largely based on homosexuality being an immutable trait (meaning that it's something people can't change), there's nothing immutable about wanting more than one spouse.

As far as in-game polyamory goes, I don't know how they'd implement it (seeing as how we don't know what in-game marriage entails), but doing so may require more work and more headache than they're willing to go through. If you already have a mechanic in the game for two people to marry, allowing gay marriage is as easy as deleting a line of code. Making it possible to have multiple spouses, however, is a different animal entirely.

I think it'd be interesting to have the option, though. I'm not opposed to polyamory in real life or in-game, so long as there's a system in place that allows it to work, although I very much pity anyone who might eventually find themselves having to go through divorce with multiple spouses at once.
