While polygamy is outlawed in Brazil, O Dia (h/t Dan Gartland of Sports Illustrated) reported civil unions between more than two persons is not uncommon. Ronaldinho, Priscilla Coelho and Beatriz Souza already live together. Thoughts? Edited May 25, 2018 by Bernard Gui

california boy Posted May 25, 2018 Posted May 25, 2018 I see little reason to not allow legal polygamist marriages. It is just like your straight one wife marriage. I don't want one, but I respect the right for you to have such a marriage. 4

bluebell Posted May 25, 2018 Posted May 25, 2018 I thought it was interesting that in Brazil, bigamy is illegal but a three-way union isn't. So, if he married one and then the other he would be breaking the law, but because he's marrying them both at the same time, he's in the clear.

I've never objected to consenting adults deciding to live polygamy. It's the marrying of 14 year old girls and other teens plus the lies told to hide this type of behavior (keeping the truth from their wife/wives) that is wrong to do, IMO. 3

As long as it's all between consenting adults, do you care? If no one is being coerced, lied to or deceived, hurt, and no one is under age....do you really care? I wouldn't chose to live polygamy, but if others do and they are all adults with full knowledge of what they are entering into, I honestly do not care. Edited May 25, 2018 by ALarson 3

I guess as long as they don't have kids what grown ups do is their own business. It is all a part of agency. We should err on the side of agency since that is the side that Christ advocated.

Not cool and pretty horrendous to imagine or see....but if they are both adults and no one is being forced or coerced, that's their business, I guess. I doubt that type of marriage will become legal, but I can see polygamous marriages being allowed eventually.

What a relief! https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/brazilian-football-legend-ronaldinho-responds-12593623 Quote Football legend Ronaldinho has opened up on reports he is to marry two women at the same time. Reports in Brazil suggested the former Barcelona star, 38, will tie the knot with his two fiancees in August this year.Ronaldinho has reportedly been living "harmoniously" with both Priscilla Coelho and Beatriz Souza at his £5million Rio de Janeiro mansion since December. The Brazil legend was in the West Zone of the city on Thursday for the launch of his R10 brand and he rebuffed the claims. "The whole world is calling me," he told SporTV when asked about the reports. I'm not going to get married, it is the biggest lie." Ronaldinho started dating Beatriz in 2016, but is said to have continued his relationship with Priscilla, which began several years earlier. Edited May 25, 2018 by Bernard Gui 1
CA Steve Posted May 25, 2018 Posted May 25, 2018 I notice how the church's practice of polygamy led them right to incestuous marriages, 3 way marriages and every other conceivable form of marriage. Kind of ironic for church members today to use slippery slope arguments disproved by their own church's past history. 3
