Re: Should polygamy be illegal?

SA

Can more than one spouse be made beneficiary on an insurance policy? And what about medical coverage? Could more than one spouse be considered "family" and brought under the same coverage? How would we avoid sham marriages, if people could marry more than one person? Maybe they would get married just for insurance or just for citizenship, particularly if it's not a one-at-a-time deal.

I mean that's why you can only be legally married to one person. The question is whether it's ok to casually describe a relationship as spousal - which seems like a free speech thing, unless you are making claims in a legal context, and also how would you even enforce that?

The legal question is far more interesting. You can call whoever you want your spouse. That has never even been a question, and wasn't in the case OP referenced.

Did you read the case and the issue in Utah in general? No, it's NOT about being able to legally marry more than one person - which hasn't been debated - it's about being able to live with someone and call them your spouse while still being married to someone else, who you also live with.

Let me specify what I mean by legal context - things like putting someone down as your spouse on taxes, for example. But OP's post implied it's illegal to even say, in casual conversation, that someone is your spouse when they are not your legal spouse, which again, seems to violate free speech and be basically unenforceable.
