minus-squareLeninsOvaries@lemmy.cafelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoPeople confuse polygamy with polygyny. Polygamy is when one person can marry multiple people. Polygyny is when one person can marry multiple women. Polyandry is when one person can marry multiple men. There’s no specific word for when one person can marry multiple nonbinary people.
