To make this simple....2024....a youth pastor in Germany was asked to bless the union of four men to each other at a pubic wedding event. It's wasn't a state-officiated deal....just a church deal. So the minister in the past month....via her church (the Evangelical Church Berlin-Brandenburg-Silesian Upper Lusatia) kinda told her....this was not a wise idea.
I paused over this. Germany is pretty set on 2-person marriages. If you did bring up a polyamory thing...it's mostly Muslim guys who'd like to go this path (with 2 or more wives).
Are the four guys still hooked up? No one says much about that. Maybe having the minister join them up....helped.
My gut feeling...the more folks you try to tie-up to a marriage....the more you have to negotiate, and give up on positions. You might be spending 12 hours a week....talking some idiot partner (or two) to accept changes.
