Polygamy

Love is Blind
You know I happen to know a very educated woman that should walk away from her mentally abusive husband and just won't because he's good in bed. Now if it were me, and the way I have heard and seen him treat her, ain't no dick that good! Not to mention, it's teaching her boys how to be mean to their wives to get what they want. It's bad situation all the way around, she is making more money than he is, she should cut her strings with him and just leave. But I cannot convince her she doesn't need him. :shrug:

It's really difficult for me to believe that there are actually women out there who won't leave a spouse if he's abusive. However, I should know this because I had girlfriend who had an abusive, alcoholic boyfriend who she eventually married and it didn't change a thing. You probably won't be able to convince your friend to leave him. It's probably more than just "being good in bed", she may need him for some support.

It is not my husband I do not trust but I know she was messing with a married man . Have not seen her for a while .

It takes two to tango :bubble:
If you only don't trust her, I see no reason to have it cross your mind that hubby would break your trust of him, no matter the temptation :smile:

On that note though, I take dreams with a grain of salt :yay:

and, get the emotions out of it, and think financial... How much better off would your family have it if there were 5 or 6 people's income instead of 2?

And I don't suppose it's occurred to you that not every woman thinks like you, and maybe they're happy with their domestic arrangement?

Not every woman thinks like me because not every woman has walked in my shoes. If that is the lifestyle they prefer, then fine. If sharing your husband is up your alley, fine w/me. If it came down to it, I don't think you would like it.

Well, that's quite a bold prediction considering you don't know me or anything about me. You should seriously think of broadening your horizons so you're not so shockingly unsophisticated.

If I had to share my husband, he isn't worth having in the first place. Most of the men I've dated apparently felt their egos took precedence over my feelings and the female population was unable to function without them. Well, this part of the female population is doing just fine!!!

I feel for those women. They may as well be in a prison. They don't have the strength to walk away because they don't know any different.

you haven't learned to stop shoving your ideals down other people's throats yet? :poorbaby:

What makes you think that they're trapped in their situation? That they're abused? That they're miserable? Because it's not your life preference? What a narrowminded view on life. No wonder you're miserable.

For the man some men do not like doing the:gossip: when their lady is at a certain time of the month. So I would say that was handy having more than one wife. However they say that ladies who live together cycle together.:lmao:
Just what every household needs multiple women PMSing :twitch:

They will end up syncing. I think that's half the reason that in the olden days, in Jewish customs before polygamy was outlawed, each wife required their own house. :lol:

You could have a point. A lot of Jewish laws were based on such reality checks.

Well, you don't know me either, so what's the difference? There isn't any difference. You are for polygamy, I'm not. Broadening my horizons makes me sophisticated by having to share my husband? I think I 'll pass!!! I would rather stay shockingly unsophisticated by your standards and traditional.

What part of that does anyone not understand? Apparently, most of you. I'm not arguing with you. If you can't comprehend that, then thats your problem!!!

No Queenofnarrowmindedness, "broadening your horizons" would be accepting and understanding that some people can live that way and be content- whether that's how you choose to live or not. Live and let live. Your way, isn't the only way and it's not the way for everyone.

What makes you think that's the absolute truth?

Such hostility over nothing. Must be all that :banana: you aren't getting because you're such a man-hater.

Sorry if this has been discussed before but thought this was an interesting article...

Polygamy uncovered: What's it really like for the women who have to share a husband? | Mail Online



I do not understand how a female could live like that .
I believe that such men with many wives tend to have narcissistic personalities......

Actually, do you go to church?

And I only ask this for what is acceptable to you, and why..

If you were brought up as a baby, through childhood, and the start of your childhood in a polygamist family and 'society' (as you know it) it would be normal and acceptable to you.

You'd think nothing of it, and live your life as all the other people you deem to be normal and loving. That's why they are having such an issue with the sect in Utah. If you believe it be normal or righteous to have sex with a grown man at the age of 12, and have been told since birth that "This man is the "Prophet" than no amount of questioning, pleading, telling them "IT's WRONG' is going to help or get you answers.

You're asking these children to give up THEIR God. If you're a Christian, Muslim or even a Jew, how hard would it be for you to do the same.

It doesn't matter what is right, or wrong, it matters what they believe. The way you feel about polygamy is probably the same way they feel about monogamy.

But you're right, unless you're brought up like them, in the same church with the same people since birth, you can't imagine.

And that little outburst would have absolutely nothing to do with my comment to you.

You are a highly defensive person, and obviously very insecure.

My wife says she would love to have another wife in the house. They could share responsibilities, and she'd have someone to talk to when she wants to yammer.

I couldn't do it. When women live together their cycles sync up. I cannot imagine dealing with two PMSing wives at the same time.

There was polygamy in my family. My great x 3 grandfather had 13 wives. I cannot imagine that.

...could. In a heart beat. The trick would be simply choosing well. They would serve as a buffer, help make decisions, carry some of the load, be there for those times when you need to talk but hate that other person at the moment. Hell, the right person would probably prevent those moments of communication break down that lead to problems in the first place. Take turns DD'ing, there's a whole bunch of reasons I am in favor of this.
