Polygamous relationships and homosexual relationships are both forbidden by the Church. Accordingly, the funeral mass can not treat participants of either as if they were in any way similar to Christian spouses.

Polygamy is generally associated with male dominance. Male homosexuality, on the other hand, is an expression of the ultimate male supremacist blasphemy: that God erred in thinking that the man He created needed a woman.

Polygamy, at least, is based on the first commandment God gave mankind, not on a sin that cries out to Heaven for vengeance.
