"Building a trend line as to how many people are in a polyamorous relationship now versus 20 years ago is a little bit difficult. But we do know that the percentage who say it's morally acceptable is up like a rocket. I mean, you compare it to 20 years ago, we were talking about just 6%. Look at it now, 21% say polygamy is morally acceptable, Enten reported."
"Wait. Can I just say something? That's one in five people, Burnett responded. Enten added that the younger people being polled, the more support for such ideas goes up. The reporter noted there is no exact figure, but it's estimated that nine million people in the country are in polyamorous relationships. This is really incredible. You know, it starts with a question in the morning, and we say, Well, what's going on here?' I mean, that's wow. That really has you thinking, Burnett said."
Support for polygamy and polyamorous relationships in the United States has risen significantly, with 21% now saying polygamy is morally acceptable compared to about 6% two decades ago. Younger people show higher levels of support, and an estimated nine million Americans are in polyamorous relationships. The highest concentration of searches and interest in polyamorous relationships appears in Alaska and Oregon, not in Utah. The term 'polyamory' entered English around 1990. Pope Leo issued a decree emphasizing one spouse is enough in response to African bishops' concerns about rising polygamy.
