yeah - my big problem is that it's way too much of a blanket term. at the same time that it covers "average" people who just happen to live in a plural situation, it also covers the whack-job cults who force their little girls to marry horny 50 year old dudes.
but then again, that stuff happens in single marriages, too. there are a lot of crazies in the world - but a certain concentration of them among polygamists has given them a bad rep.
There's a Big difference between choice and consent. He didn't Choose to be attracted to her, he just was. and that's why she was able to seduce him and why it wasn't necessarily rape. Statutory rape, yes, but that's a whole different ball game.
