Just curious — why do you assume that poligamy==poligyny?

The word polygamy includes both, but polyandry is far less common than polygyny. If polygamy were legalized, polygyny would constitute the overwhelming majority of polygamous marriages.

I assume this based on history and on the current incidence worldwide of polygyny and the near-zero incidence of polyandry.
