Keeping in mind that I'm bi, too...
Would you marry both a man and a woman, or want to, if you had the legal right?
I'm asking because of something especially heinous I read today.

It would take two pretty special people for me to marry both, although I have often thought it would be pure bliss to be the female third of a bisexual MMF trio that was loving, intelligent, dedicated, and so on.
But that's mostly fantasy. In my real life, I'm pretty sure I want to be monogamous in real life. I've never been the kind of bisexual who 'needs' to have both sexes in my life romantically- I'm more about giving everything to one person, and letting them fulfill me completely. So even if the right to polygamous marriage was granted me, I probably wouldn't take it, although I do think it's something that could be good for others.

Personally, no I would not I am also bisexual but I could not be married to more than one person. However I believe everyone has the right to their own morals and values. If someone wants to marry more than one person and all parties are accepting of this, I don't see the big deal. People should not force their way of life on others.

Uhh I would be open to having either a husband or a wife, but not both at the same time. Whichever I ended up with I would stay loyal to, even if I legally could be polygamous. Marriage is about love, and I don't believe it's possible to love more than one person at the same time, regardless if they are of different genders.

Sometimes I think I would, but am unsure.
There are people known as polyamorists who are capable of forming stable relationships involving more than one partner. Some bisexuals are poly, so are some straights/gays. How children fit in may be contentious but a poly relationship may have beneficial aspects of an extended family in which child raising is shared.
This is not the same as a free-for-all sex orgy, which is probably what the moralists fear.
Here are some stories:

I'm not into poly behavior.. my goal is to find ONE person (male or female) to be with in a serious long-term relationship.
I'm not interested in cheating or having a fling on the side.
but interestingly enough, if the goal of the country's laws are to be equal to everyone, then it makes sense to consider legalizing poly marriage laws..
much like the issue of whether same sex partners should be married, i believe that people should be allowed to marry whomever they want (or in this case, 2 ever they want! )
the government has no right to tell people who they can and can't sleep with or who they can and can't marry.
however, i disagree with government bills that give tax incentives for married people.. marriage is supposed to be about love.. not about government privileges..

I'm bisexual, and I would marry either a man, or a woman, not both. Whomever it is I fall in love with and decide to marry is it. I think that's how it is suppossed to be. Man or Woman, although many disagree, that's the way God meant it.

I'm sorry, I don't think it makes any sense at all. Marriage in its most basest form has meant the joining of two things.
That's like me saying, well, I'm straight, so why the hell can't I marry two men? A blonde one and a brown-haired one? I mean, I have a certain affinity towards both...
Come on. Let's get over the gay-marriage hurtle before we tackle this one.

As I see it being bi is means that attraction - sexual and emotional is not limited to just the opposite sex...or the same sex. For a great site for women check out www.chick2chick.com.

This nonsense is starting to careen wildly out of control. Kokopelli say want to marry horse, should be OK under White Man laws.
