Polygamy in general or Polygyny specifically?
Polygamy in OTL has really ended up at the two ends of the cultural spectrum with almost *nothing* to do with each other.
1) largely religiously based polygyny (1 man - many women): Muslims, Mormon fundamentalist sects, and other homegrown cults similar to the Mormon fundamentalist sects.
2) polyamory (leading to Polygamy) - decendants of 1960s "free love" where the number and gender balance are up to the individual group of people.
While on some issues, I can see the far right and the far left getting together, this just isn't it.
I think such a TL would have to have pick one of the two...
