These laws allowed them to do things to women that wouldn't be allowed under Canadian laws. This infringed on their religous rights.

But if we're talking sexual freedom and the fact that government should stay out of our bedrooms, should not polygamy be allowed? Perhaps stricter requirements for bloodwork done for polygamous couples, but really, whose right is it to say I can't have 5 husbands and my 5 husbands can't have 3 other wives?
Why do you feel that gay marriage should be allowed, and could not those same arguments be used for polygamous marriage?
