In simplest terms, it's getting married to a second person while still legally married to the first spouse. It's a crime in most countries where marital monogamy is the accepted model for marriage. Bigamy does not depend on the gender - a man marrying two woman or a woman marrying two men - both are "bigamy".
In countries where polygamy is legal and accepted by society, Bigamy is not an issue.
