What are difference between monogamous and polygamous?

Monogamous refers to a system where one person marries one other person (usually of the opposite gender) in a committed relationship. Some definitions of monogamy require that it be a lifelong commitment. Polygamous usually refers to a system where a male may marry more than one female at a time. Polygamy is accepted in many parts of the world and is quietly tolerated in other places. (Technically this is polygyny but that term is rarely used.) Polygamy also exists in the form of polyandry, which is when a female has multiple male spouses at one time. Polygamy (specifically polygyny) is accepted throughout the Islamic world but is very common on in a few smaller countries (Senegal, for example). Christianity generally forbids all polygamy, with exceptions; after the 30 Years War Martin Luther authorized priests to marry and allowed men to take multiple wives.


Is polygamy in Rastafarism?

Ultimately, whether polygamy is practiced depends on personal beliefs and the specific community's interpretation of Rastafarian principles.


Is Polygamy Realistic or utopian?

Polygamy can be seen as realistic in cultures and societies where it is accepted and practiced, often rooted in historical, religious, or social frameworks. However, it can also be viewed as utopian when considering the complexities of emotional dynamics, legal challenges, and societal norms that can complicate such relationships. Ultimately, the feasibility of polygamy largely depends on individual perspectives and the specific context in which it is practiced.
