Legalization of polygamy has long been a cause aided by reality TV and TV dramas. Polyamory and polygamy are both gaining mainstream media respect, and are often treated as equivalent, but they aren’t. In Canada, a 2018 Ipsos poll found that 36 percent of respondents approved of decriminalizing polygamy. Today, 80 percent of Americans still think it’s wrong according to a 2020 Gallup poll, but that number is trending downwards. In the 19th century, Mormon polygamy shocked the American public, and Utah was only granted statehood on the condition that it prohibit it forever.
