meaning....hatred of marriage.
Is there a word for people who get married over and over like Elizabeth Taylor, for example?

I had an anthro professor back in the day that referred to the practice as serial polygamy so I suppose you could call a practitioner of it a serial polygamist.

misogamy not to be confused with misogyny
Misogyny... is the hatred of women. From Greek misogunia, misos-hatred and gyne-woman.
I wonder if this is an association with not wanting to get married. But then......nagging woman might be the blame too!

Wha-at?? If I've told you once, I've told you a hundred times, don't say things like that! Yes, that was a nag.

I really don't like things like that either. But I came out on top, really high. Too bad it does not give its version of an IQ - only a score. I usually fail these. And the 8 seconds is not too neat either.
