to share or not?

I was watching Ally Mcbeal, the episode where they had Heather Locklear. Case: She is accused of bigamy. Claims she loves both men, and both men loves her back. And the best is, they are totally ok with the other husband. Yup, she married both of them, legally. And having that 2 pieces of legal marriage certificates, is illegal. Because there are 2 of them.
2L = I .
Anyway, that is not the point. One specific argument struck a chord. If a woman can spread her love for her, say, three children, and to love each of them as much as she loves all of them, why can't she love 2 men at the same time? Makes total sense if you ask me. Ahh...unless mothers are willing to stand out and confess how biased they are in loving their kids, and go on to proof that love can never be distributed equally. Ok ok, so what's the question here anyway? Should Rachel (HL) be acquitted? Or, Is a woman capable of loving many people equally? Or, Can parents love their children equally? Or, Ally Mcbeal (the show) is crap, for bringing out such sensitive and abject topics?

Well, who ever said she has to love them equally anyway? Duh..
