Among cultures, polygyny is the most common and accepted form of [[polygamy]]. Polygyny is illegal in many Western countries, most of the countries that permit polygyny are Muslim-majority countries. In some countries where polygamy is illegal, polygyny is still a cultural norm.
It is in contrast to [[polyandry]].
