Rejected petition Create true marital equality by legalising polygamous marriage

More details

With the entire framework of marriage being redefined by the Same Sex Marriage Bill, it is now time to look at allowing polygamy.

The polyamory movement has gained strength and more acceptance of late. Polyamory is not all about a man having a harem nor does it have anything to do with less rights for women.

We the undersigned believe that anyone should be allowed to have a committed relationship with whoever they want and as many people as they want, so long as the needs of all partners are fulfilled and all parties are in agreement.
