Polygamy
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/polygamy
这个是指同时有多个伴侣，多个伴侣一般指妻子
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/monogamy
这个是指一对一的夫妻关系
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/polyandry
这个是指同时有多个丈夫
我有两个问题。
1.这个对于同性恋夫妻也使用对吗
2.polygamy
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/polygamy
这个上面说一般指多个妻子，就是说一般不能指多个丈夫。
对吗？
当然如果是同性恋，妻子和丈夫要重新确定

多偶婚
polygamy字面意思上其实没有特别指明配偶的性别；polygyny专指一夫多妻，polyandry则是一妻多夫
如果讨论人类的婚姻制度，可以翻译成“多偶婚”/“多配偶制”
