It can be observed across all civilized societies. Monogamy entails the union of one man and one woman. There are two variations of monogamy: serial monogamy and non-serial monogamy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>(i) Serial Monogamy:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Serial monogamous marriage allows for the option of remarrying in the event of divorce or the death of a spouse.

It permits either a man to marry multiple women or a woman to marry multiple men simultaneously. Polygamy can be classified into two categories: polygyny, where a man has multiple wives, and polyandry, where a woman has multiple husbands.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-18537\" src=\"https:\/\/triumphias.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/2-1-300x212.jpg\" alt=\"Types of Marriage: Monogamy, Polygamy, and Group Marriage Explained, Best Sociology Optional Coaching, Sociology Optional Syllabus.\" width=\"933\" height=\"659\" srcset=\"https:\/\/triumphias.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/2-1-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/triumphias.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/2-1-1024x724.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/triumphias.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/2-1-150x106.jpg 150w, https:\/\/triumphias.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/2-1-768x543.jpg 768w, https:\/\/triumphias.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/2-1.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 933px) 100vw, 933px\" \/><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>(a) Polygyny:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Polygyny is a form of marriage where a man simultaneously marries multiple wives. This practice was prevalent in numerous ancient civilizations, including the Hebrews, Assyrians, Babylonians, and Indians, among others. Currently, it is primarily observed among indigenous tribes, although it tends to be more prevalent among wealthier individuals. Polygyny is practiced by Eskimo tribes, Crow Indians, African Negroes, as well as the Naga, Gonds, and Baigas of India. It is worth noting that polygyny is also allowed within the Muslim community. This type of marriage can be categorized into two forms:<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>(i) Sororal Polygyny<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Sororal polygyny is commonly referred to as a surrogate. The term &#8220;surrogate&#8221; originates from the Latin word &#8220;sorer,&#8221; which means sister. Consequently, it denotes a marital custom where a man marries his wife&#8217;s sisters either simultaneously or following the death of his wife.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>(ii) Non-Sororal Polygyny:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Non-sororal polygyny is the opposite of sororal polygyny. In non-sororal polygyny, a man marries multiple women simultaneously who may or may not be sisters to each other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>(b) Polyandry:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Polyandry is an extremely uncommon form of marriage in modern times. In this type of union, a woman marries multiple men simultaneously. According to K.M. Kapadia, &#8220;Polyandry is a union where a woman has more than one husband at the same time, or where brothers share a wife or wives in common.&#8221; It is observed among various cultures, including the Tibetans, Marquesas Islanders of Polynesia, the Bahamas of Africa, and tribal communities in Samoa, among others. In India, tribes such as the Tiyan, Toda, Kota, Khasa, and Ladakhi Bota also practice polyandry. The Nairs of Kerala were known for their practice of polyandry in the past. Polyandry can be classified into two types:<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>(i) Fraternal Polyandry:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Fraternal or adelphic polyandry refers to the arrangement where multiple brothers collectively share one wife. An excellent illustration of fraternal polyandry is seen in Draupadi&#8217;s marriage to the Pandavas. The identification of the biological father is determined through specific rituals. This practice is predominantly found among the Todas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>(ii) Non-fraternal Polyandry:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>This type of marriage is in contrast to fraternal polyandry. In this arrangement, the husbands of a woman are not necessarily brothers to each other.<\/strong> It is observed among the Nairs of Kerala, where the wife spends specific periods of time with each of her husbands. As long as a woman resides with one of her husbands, the others do not possess any rights or claims over her. This practice primarily emerges as a result of limited availability of women.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>Cenogamy or Group Marriage:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>Group marriage refers to the union of two or more women with two or more men, where each woman is married to every man within the specific group.<\/strong> Sociologists, such as Dr. Rivers, describe it as a form of sexual communism. This form of marriage is observed among certain tribal communities in Australia, India, Tibet, and Ceylon, who are believed to have practiced group marriage.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Related_Blogs_%E2%80%A6\"><\/span>Related Blogs \u2026<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;
