I think ethically speaking, if you claim to respect same-sex marriage then you should be open to respecting the relationships of all consenting adults, including polygamy/polyamory.

But legally speaking, polygamy is a lot more difficult. Even putting aside the almost inherent sexism of one man + many wives, and equating any gender combination, what's the limit? What exactly are the benefits of marrying twenty-three people if you choose? If you divorce, how could that be done? Can I just marry all my friends if I want, even if we're not having sex? Do I get visas if they are international people?

It's extremely confusing. It might be that in the future, we have to examine what use marriage is, or if it should be redefined to some kind of "adoption" concept that could include multiple people, even platonic friends. But I don't think that'll be an easy thing to figure out.
