What is wrong with polygamy?

Answer 1

Nothing wrong if you have enough money to financially support number of wives. Secondly if the law of your country allows to have more then one wife. Thirdly if your religion allows you to have more then one wife & you are free to follow your personal religious laws in this regard. Fourthly if all your wives live peacefully with each other with you as a common husband. & finally if you can treat all your wives equally otherwise human right guys will be after you.

Answer 2

How would u feel if your wife kisses with u, looks at her watch and just says: "Oh my! Your time has passed! I gotta go see...". U would feel like she doesn't love u enough. Polygamy is for people who don't love one person enough(for what that person is). So, if u want a sexy, funny and smart girl, u go find a funny girl tomorrow, sexy one today, and a smart one next week. And you've got the whole package then.

But let me make this clear and get to the point. What's wrong wih polygamy is that women are treated like s.h.i.t.

Answer 3

this is a good question I have been watching a tv series called "Big Love" starring Bill Paxton (twister with Helen Hunt) his character is married to 3 wives and they have 7 children and another on the way (in the series) television romantasizes things they romantasize love , marriage , parenthood (ever notice how easily tv mums raise their kids and how little you see them?) they have also romantaized polygamy .....

but the truth of polygamy is if they trust each other and are honestly capable of not becoming jealous , insecure , feeling unloved and loyal to their spouses then its the persons choice you have to know yourself to be this more so then a monogamous marriage.....

not for the weak hearted.....

Answer 4

If this is a real question I'll try to answers as real as I could. Polygamy applied in marriage is wrong, marriage is designed for one man and one woman, in union to complete one another this would be defined as monogamy. Applying monogamy in marriage makes it sacred and the relationship is developed. Complementing each other, if you want to destroy this complement you add another one making this union a polygamy union, this would create trouble and distroy marriage, so we don't mix marriage with polygamy like we don't add poison to our energy drink. If your marriage is important to you don't engage in polygamy. Polygamy is just good for business where competition is healthy to the consumers. May God enlighten you on this matter.

Answer 5

I am a Mormon (NO Mormons do not practice polygamy) and I am the great-great granddaughter of people who DID.

Polygamy creates a situation where a man is trying to provide for multiple families. It's very difficult financially and next to impossible emotionally.

My great-great grandmother left a fascinating journal. Her life as a polygamist wife was lonely and sad.

She wanted so much to be in love. And to feel loved and adored by a husband. She wanted to be able to share her hopes and dreams and fears with him. She wanted to have a family with someone who loved their children and helped raise them.

Instead, she was married at 15 to a man who was older than her father. The man already had 4 other wives. and 2 more would come after her. She never got a chance to spend enough time with him for him to get to know her, or to fall in love. He would come to her bedroom about once a week and have sex with her. Other than that, they would all sit at the dinner table where none of the wives dared to talk to him too much because they didn't want the others to feel jealous. But they all were jealous. Taking into account exactly how many nights he was with each wife, If he smiled at or talked to one more often than the others, exactly how much money was spent on each wife, etc.

He died eventually, leaving all these young widows with multiple children that none of them could afford to take care of. No money, no education, no way for them to support themselves.

It seems like when men talk about polygamy all they are concerned with is the sex. But marriage is more than sex. You will have to deal with multiple wives issues, their health problems, their moodiness, etc.

If all a guy wants is to have sex with multiple people, why get married at all? Just be a bachelor and find a bunch of lowlife women who will sleep with you.

Answer 6

You would not like to share your personal things with others. Your wife is most personal thing for you. Does it better share your wife with others. No. No. No. Now you may have the actual wrong with polygamy.
For example, woman is like a pot, and five men wants to put some milk in it. Now shake that pot and ask those five men to get only their own milk from the pot. Is it possible? It means who will be called the father of new-baby?

Answer 7

It depends on your culture, traditions, belief and religious afiliation. Polygamy is wrong to other groups while its not to another groups. In Catholics its definitely wrong but in Islam it is allowed (for men) for as long as you meet the prerequisites.

Answer 8

Your question shows your wife is having bad luck that you are her husband. No man would ever like his wife have sex with someone else and you advocate polygamy.

Answer 9

I think some people are more polygamous in nature and other people more monagamous. Nothing wrong if you can handle it emotionally and it makes you and your partners happy. If it doesn't or you can't, then obviously it's better to be monogamous. Though monogamy isn't always happy either.

Answer 10

Polygamy is having one wife too many.....
or is that monogamy
