43. I don't think many adults would consent to it.

Obviously if someone's single they can do whatever they want.

But, are you talking about only one spouse having many spouses? It seems unfair to the person who has to share... I just can't see how a member of a concubine would be happier sharing.

And if both spouses can have many spouses, then that's just wacked out. We'd end up with a society of a bunch of intertwined marriages, which would be hell to keep track of for taxes, insurance, child custody, etc.
