Do you know any Polygamists?

[TommyVercetti]

Know any people who are married to more than one person at a time?

I know one, and by know I mean a passing reference. My cousin's friend's dad is currently married to two females and has two seperate familes. One lives in Houston, and the other one in San Antonio. He is quite old, and I think has been married to them for some time. I think he is Mormon or something like that.

And here is totally messed up story a girl told me. Her mom married one guy in the US, and another one in Panama. She had a daughter with that guy in Panama, and the guy in the US still thinks that it's his daughter. She divorced both those men, and is now married to another man. So the girl has a real dad, step dad, and a guy who thinks is her dad.

How exactly does one propose to 3 women? I don't really know the guy who is married to two women, so I can't ask him.

Nope. You can ask any of my wives.

I would imagine you would propose to them as you developed relationships with each one.

But i really don't see what's the big deal with polygamists. In almost all societies, it's been practiced at one time or another. As long as they're not like some of the Mormons who prey on young girls, and everybody in the relationship is consenual, it should be up to the individual's free will.
