I'm not sure if I understand your question. Are you saying it's double standards to allow men to have multiple wives, but not allow women to have multiple husbands? If that's the case, I already explained the reasons as to why there is inequality.

Yeah but those reasons are hardly relevant to modern society. So what i'm asking is it acceptable for inequalities based on sex in modern society.

Is one guy going to have thousands of Children?No didn't think so it all seems somewhat excessive. And yes I know if you have four wives you can get them all pregnant at the same time and get four kids for time of one yet it can be deemed that much of the world is now overpopulated.

Whether you mean that only 15 can be fertilised throughout her life then fair enough but there are women who have 20-30 pregnancies resulting in 60+ children which to me seems plenty to me. Anyway, I understand why it is in place just wanted to question Islamic reasoning as to why it is acceptable still for polygamy to be in place despite it to me atleast not being required in modern society and to me seemingly unfair.

I really don't feel like going through this again. But just go ahead and post your biological and scientific proof.

And hundreds more if you look.

Why would any child choose to be hated by the more ignorant factions of society, such as yourself?

Then how what decides homosexual preference?

Who knows. There has been extensive research into it and no clear results. It isn't a choice, but you aren't born gay.


Maybe it's part of 'Gods plan'. He works in 'mysterious ways after all'.

So you aren't born gay and it's not a choice.

Because it plainly isn't a choice. You can't suddenly decide not to be gay.

I'm sure there are people out there who committed gay acts and decided not to be gay at one point in the future.

The feelings would still exist. While the actions might not be there, the feelings would. You cannot help who you are attracted to.

Love is the most natural thing in the world. Are you telling me that love cannot exist between two members of the same sex?

I find Pique to be very handsome, he is a great football player, and if I personally knew him, I might enjoy his company. Doesn't mean I want to have sex with him. There is not wrong at all with finding someone physically attractive (even the same sex).
