minus-squareOwl@mander.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up36arrow-down2·5 months agoMuslim men can have multiple wives (maximum 5 I believe) as long as they can provide for them. Muslim women are only allowed to have a single husband. The joke is that the school thought that the kid’s family was super progressive meanwhile in reality it was super patriarchal
minus-squareLovable Sidekick@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10arrow-down2·5 months agoThanks, I got the humor, what I’m wondering about is what’s the predominant reason people in general object to polygamy, regardless of whether it’s Islam or Mormons or whatever.
minus-squareLeninsOvaries@lemmy.cafelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·edit-25 months agoPeople confuse polygamy with polygyny. Polygamy is when one person can marry multiple people. Polygyny is when one person can marry multiple women. Polyandry is when one person can marry multiple men. There’s no specific word for when one person can marry multiple nonbinary people.
