DOMA and Prop 8. Both History.

Because in the US society of 2013 you will not be able to find out if the adults are really consenting. Those mormon wives will say they are, but everybody sees that those mormon societies are not equal for men and women.

Well, I'm glad it's that easy to see. I assume we have a similar smell test to tell whether monogamous marriages are "really consenting"?

But OK, let's do a test.....allow this for 5 years and if the amount of multiwive families is more or less the same as the amount of multihusband families let's allow it for good. What do you think?

That seems like a very strange criterion. That's like saying we should allow trial gay marriages, and if the number of lesbian marriages doesn't equal the number of gay male marriages, then we should scrap the whole deal. I don't understand what sense this makes, except that you don't like Mormon polygamy, which I agree with, but then, I don't like Catholic monogamy much, either.
