The marriage system was supposedly to combat low birth rates
You know what else was meant to combat low birth rates in a fictional version of Japan?
Think it is literally the opposite. Women were in short quantity and needed to be shared. Think it is somewhere in Nepal this is practiced, where brothers marry one woman. It is a successful strategy when you think about it. She gets the resources of two males. The males know either way, she is carrying on their genetic legacy. Either the kid is a nephew/niece or son/daughter. Not excusing it, but looking at it that way, it makes as much sense as men trying to fuck as many women as possible.
You are correct that it's Nepal

Is that what the background of that series was? I need to read the manga again soon. The art was really good, and more in depth with the characters than the movie was. Another manga that reminds me of that (can't remember the name, darnit) involves the entire population of japan getting vaccinations as children. 1 in every million or so is a slow acting poison that kills you as a young adult. No one knows who got a fatal dose. It's supposedly to instill a sense of "living life to the fullest because you might die before 20." Not combating population decline, but also raises a lot of existential questions. Anywho.

I've heard about that example in Nepal. That seems a bit more tolerable. Like they said, it's practical. I may be wrong, but from what I've watched it seems like they're much more "equal" in terms of tasks and responsibilities within the family. Regardless of the gender makeup, relationships where one partner (often male) holds sole authority is dumb imo. That sort of thing can and does happen in monogamous couples, but it's practically the norm in typical polygamous marriages.

iirc the reasoning behind "The Program" is a little different depending on which version of the story you're looking at (anime, manga, novel, etc.) but the core of it is always that the people ruling the country saw the need to instill fear and obedience in the youth because they believed children had lost respect for life- running rampant, doing crimes, and not having children of their own.

Hey remember the troon with the big poly partner chart? Wellppp
 
Polyamorous person is abusive and using poly as the vehicle for their abuse, in other new water is wet.
 
Wow this is possibly the biggest shit mess I've ever seen when it comes to relationship stuff. Imo if you need a flowchart to visualize your relationships, you're probably doing it wrong.
I don't understand why these people think this kind of shit is normal. Like I get non monogamy, or even having a couple of people you casually fuck on the regular, but going this far is absurd to me. I'm horrified at the thought of how messed up these people would have to be in order to be open to being in a literal spider web of relationships.
 
Here's some shit I found on polyTok



 
Pretty sure the dude in that last one doesn't give a fuck about the label. He seems to just be taking advantage of the fact that he gets to fuck multiple attractive women now without any of them complaining about the other.
The two last videos are from the same channel. The last one is older.
 
Holy fuck, this bitch looks like a real life Tumblr drawing.

I legitimately think that may be her makeup. Her nose doesn't always look like that in her videos. Compare this:

and this:

to this:

We're real hadurs you guys!
