Did women like to be a wife for more the one brothers like Kunti, in Mahabrath. Its really they enjoy it?

Answer 1

The tradition still exists in north eastern regions of India.
I have read an article in a local magazine. A woman was
married to four brothers - the last one is younger than the
woman. The woman says she is happy with her husbands -
more than one man takes care of her. The brothers say
they are happy to be in a one family house to look after
common interests.

In social anthropology and sociobiology, polyandry
means a female forming a sexual union with more than
one male. The form of polyandry in which two or more
brothers marry the same woman is known as adelphic or
fraternal polyandry, and it is believed to be the most
frequently encountered form.

Polyandry has occurred in Tibet, the Canadian Arctic,
Zanskar, Nepal, Ladakh, Jaunsar region in Uttarakhand,
Toda of South India, the Nymba, Nishi and Sri Lanka. It
is also found in some regions of Mongolia, China, and
in some Subsaharan African and American indigenous
communities. The Guanches, the first known inhabitants
of the Canary Islands, also practiced it until their
disappearance.

Polyandry in primates and other mammals is usually
correlated with reduced or reverse sexual dimorphism.

Brothers live together throughout their life times in
large patrilineally constructed households. They share
a common estate and domestic responsibilities. Some
theorists suggest that this institution more often
occurs in societies in which women hold relatively high
social status. Accordingly, it is not to be found
in middle east or Europe.

A movie by name Matrubhoomi directed by Manish Jha was
released in 2005. Its storyline bears some resemblance
to stories of real-life instances of gender imbalance
and economics resulting in fraternal polyandry.

"Nyinba" can be considered one of the most polyandrous
groups in Nepal. Every man who has brothers (with a few
exceptions) marries polyand-rously and virtually all
the brothers remain in fraternally polyandrous
marriages throughout their lives. All polyandrous
marriages in the Nyinba society are prearranged.

Islam bans polyandry completely. A woman may not have
more than one husband. Nikah Ijtimah was forbiden by
Islam. Both Judaism and Christianity prohibit
polyandry. Yet it was practiced to a limited degree in
early Mormonism.

The practice euphemistically referred to as
'eka-ge-kema' or 'eating in one house' may still be
surviving in some remote areas of Sri Lanka.

The practice is also known to have existed among other
Asian peoples such as the folk of and Sikkim, the
Jats of the Punjab, the Tiyyans of Kerala.

Another Sangam age work, the Cilappatikaram refers to
them as Kavuriyar, suggesting that they were connected
to the Kuru line to which the Pandus belonged. That the
practice was a well established tradition among the
Pandavas and their offspring is suggested by its
existence among the Aryan Khasas of the Cis-Himalayan
region such as the Dehra Dun district who trace their
descent to the Pandavas The tradition of niyoga permits
relations between a wife and her husband's younger
brothers.

Modern studies say that there existed a greater unity
and solidarity of sibling groups among those practicing
fraternal polyandry.

Among people of Limi Valley in the northwest of Nepal,
Fraternal Polyandry is the normal form of marriage when
a family has more than one son.

Answer 2

first get your facts rights albeit about mythology.i was a vaishnav brahmin now a born again christian.it is not kunti but draupadi.and as for the enjoyment ,that which is called hindu mythology means its a myth.so thats it! a myth is like a fantasy. come out of fantasy into reality,read the bible, jesus is called history.he changed history as ad and bc,born in a stable in a small town called bethlehem,died for all mankinds sin.yours and mine and rose again that we may have eternal life in him.that is the truth and the truth will set you free.

Answer 3

Obviously your knowledge about Hindu mythology is limited.

Draupadi married five pandavas. And that is one single example of such a marriage.

If one woman among Millions married 5 brothers, that does not become a custom or culture

If you study Draupadi's life history, she was a divine birth, a manifestation of Kali, who came to earth to help Krishna in destruction of the evil

So to make her case stronger, and to keep control over all five pandavas, she married all of them

She is peculiar case of divinity and does not represent women or culture of ancient India

Answer 4

itz not kunti, she'z drawpadi, who married five brothers. its not her wish to be so, but only because of circumstances she has to obey that.
she managed the dharma of a wife beautifully, and she is considered as one among five pativrata's

Answer 5

No intelligent women would ever welcome a legalised polygamy as the parentage of the off-springs would leave her confused and unsolved throughout her life unless impotency plays its role. And these days one husband is more than sufficient to give her eternal headache and sufferings. lileeann33

Answer 6

Not Kunthi it's dravpadhi......its the mythology....all the best.

Answer 7
