Most Non-Religious Americans Condone Polyamory, New Survey Finds

One? Two? Three? Four? Tell me that you love me more…by filling out this survey.

Pop singer Feist’s 2007 hit single/iPod jingle was not in fact a cunning attempt to gauge how many sexual partners Americans consider to be morally acceptable. But it is a great song to start your Friday. So please excuse my digression.

Where Feist failed (…because she was just singing), YouGov has prevailed.

A new survey of 1,000 American adults, conducted in late-July and released on Wednesday, shows:

  • 14 percent consider polygamy, the marriage of more than two partners, morally acceptable.
