It's only a matter of time before polyamorous marriages (i.e. more than 2 people) are also legally recognized.
Because, why not?
Why shouldn't a marriage be recognized among more than two people?
It will definitely complicate things like eligibility for health care benefits, social security, filing of tax returns, but we are a great nation and can figure these things out.
I'm reminded of young Alvy Singer's mother in Annie Hall.
Mrs. Singer: He's been depressed. All of a sudden, he can't do anything.
Dr. Flicker: Why are you depressed, Alvy?
Mrs. Singer: Tell Dr. Flicker. It's something he read.
Dr. Flicker: Something you read, huh?
Alvy Singer: The universe is expanding.
Dr. Flicker: The universe is expanding?
Alvy Singer: Well, the universe is everything, and if it's expanding, someday it will break apart, and that will be the end of everything.
Mrs. Singer: What is that your business?
Wise woman, Mrs. Singer.
What is anybody else's marriage your business?
