> Who you marry is no-one's business but your own. Well no, not really. As long as it has a status in law, then of course society should have a say in who and how. For instance polygamy raises all sorts of questions in regards to tax, support, which partner has "priority" in dealing with estate issues etc. to which most Western countries have just banned rather than deal with. Personally I'm inclined to think that the State should have nothing to do with the institution. I'm not sure how that would be handled though.
