What do you fine folks think about polygamy? Any rational or irrational arguments for or against?

For clarity I'm talking about a man taking several wives, nothing deviant like a woman taking several husbands.

Here's (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygamy) a bit of light reading to go with the poll.

Personally I am for monogamy, i would much rather have one life partne much like the resourceful penguin. Its great that your thinking "Oh man multiple wives would be great, I could have all the sex I want!!!" but what about the wives needs? I know ppl who have wives (one per) who have very expensive habits... Not to mention that women who live with each other tend to have periods that occur about the same time of the month...

Rational or irrational arguments, huh?
Well, I'll stick to rational for now...

Since you have restricted polygamy to polygyny (1man,multi-women) as opposed to polyandry (1woman, multi-men), I am going to oppose.

Before I oppose, I will admit the sole rational argument in favour of polygyny is that in terms of reproduction (and, to oversimplify) - women are quality, men are quantity, so you only need one man to fertilise many women. This of course, also means we should choose the best candidate men and incinerate the rest as a waste of space and effort. And the choice should be made by the women, since any man would have a conflict of interest in trying to save himself.

However, I only support polygamy if it's open polygamy - with any combination of multiple men and women. I oppose gay marriage unless polygamy of this sort is made legal at the same time. So it becomes about free choice rather than social engineering.

Myself, I'd rather just stick to One Special Person (if I could only find that person!). There are so many complications even in a one-to-one committed relationship that a polygamous relationship would be orders of magnitude more messy. But then again, the polygyny you are advocating is really some kind of chauvanist one-to-one relationship between the man and each of the women, with them having no relationship to each other, so ...

More likely would be Open Relationships. This of course, already happens a lot. And it's much easier than maintaining a multilateral committment, to just share and enjoy and adjust to situations as they develop without being tied to here and there.

Being a traditionalist, I'm not in favour of an Open Relationships society.

There. Blegh.

Just incidentally ...

Is it the answer?

For clarity I'm talking about a man taking several wives, nothing deviant like a woman taking several husbands.
The answer to what?
Already in China there is a serious shortage of women due to many parents preferentially birthing boys (and aborting girls) due to the one child policy. If polygamy was an answer to anything it'd have to be the way you've described as "deviant" ... though, it would be inefficient from a population point of view, it would, however, selectively breed humans with competitive ... uh, gonads.

If the world male population suddenly drops (most likely because they're all going to war, though so are the women these days), then it may be a workable answer to a social situation that may develop... but as I say, in that case, the women would rule, because there'd be more of them.

I had a hard time watching that show on Showtime about polygamy. I just couldn't relate to the concept. I prefer monogamy, myself. I couldn't imagine having to share my partner with other ppl. It's always interesting that it's usually the man who gets multiple partners. What's in it for the women?

November 21st, 2006, 06:11 AM
What's in it for the women?

I'm not sure I understand the question. Doesn't each of the women get the opportunity to have a small piece of a man's time? And they can still use the rest of their time to work and make money for him.

Not that the man shouldn't work, but he may require most of his time for budgeting the women's income and interviewing prospective new wives.

--

As to the earlier question "the aswer to what?", I had thought it would be obvious. If the women were given only to the magnificent peace-loving men then war would end. The war-loving men would revert to their spartan practices and become fewer in number with every generation.

Won't somebody please think of the children?

Well sweetie, recognizing the problem is a good start. I suspect if you weren't so selfish you wouldn't have reached the advanced age you have without being accepted as a wife.

I suggest you pick even just one of your prettiest friends to join you each time you try to please your man. He'll propose in no time. You don't have to grow any older alone.

Q: My husband wants to have a threesome with me and my best friend.

A: Obviously your husband cannot get enough of you! Knowing that there is only one of you he can only settle for the next best thing your best friend. Far from being an issue, this can bring you closer together. Why not get some of your old college roommates involved too? If you are still apprehensive, maybe you should let him be with your friends without you. If you're still not sure then just perform oral sex on him and cook him a nice meal while you think about it.

Q: My husband continually asks me to perform oral sex on him.

A: Do it. Semen can help you lose weight and gives a great glow to your skin. Interestingly, men know this. His offer to allow you to perform oral sex on him is totally selfless. This shows he loves you. The best thing to do is to thank him by performing it twice a day; then cook him a nice meal.

Q: My husband has too many nights out with the boys

A: This is perfectly natural behavior and it should be encouraged. The Man is a hunter and he needs to prove his prowess with other men. A night out chasing young single girls is a great stress relief and can foster a more peaceful and relaxing home. Remember, nothing can rekindle your relationship better than the man being away for a day or two (it's a great time to clean the house, too)! Just look at how emotional and happy he is when he returns to his stable home. The best thing to do when he gets home is for you and your best friend to perform oral sex on him. Then cook him a nice meal.

Q: My husband doesn't know where my clitoris is.

A: Your clitoris is of no concern to your husband. If you must mess with it, do it in your own time or ask your best friend to help. You may wish to videotape yourself while doing this, and present it to your husband as a birthday gift. To ease your selfish guilt, perform oral sex on him and cook him a delicious meal.

Q: My husband is uninterested in foreplay.

A: You are a bad person for bringing it up and should seek sensitivity training. Foreplay to a man is very stressful and time consuming. Sex should be available to your husband on demand with no pesky requests for foreplay. What this means is that you do not love your man as much as you should; He should never have to work to get you in the mood. Stop being so selfish! Perhaps you can make it up to him by performing oral sex and cooking him a nice meal.

Q: My husband always has an orgasm then rolls over and goes to sleep without giving me one.

A: I'm not sure I understand the problem. Perhaps you've forgotten to cook him a nice meal.

Several men, and now someone's wife, have raised a question that needs putting to rest.

In my ideal situation there would never be a need for support. An unfaithful, inattentive or questioning wife would simply be stoned to death as being "full of the devil". Any children of said dead woman could be sold, enslaved or simply engaged to someone else in exchange for a spanky new wife.

My wife and I are both in favor of it.

Biblically, there is nothing wrong with it.
Under the Mosaic Law, in case of a man's death, his brother was REQUIRED to take the wife of his dead brother as his own to care for her.

Later, on the New Testament, there was only one mention of having only one wife, but that was the instructions for Preachers or Elders in the Church, due to their time being consumed with the Church. no where did it say that the average church goer could not have more than one wife.

Adultry applied to one being married (to one or more wife) to go OUTSIDE of this marrieage to have an affair.

Laws against it is violating my free excersise of my religion.

Jesus, Amen. Both my wives had something against oral sex on Saturday as this is considered some form of work on the Holy Day. However, my first wife always tried to get me to swallow some form of vitamin or herbal supplement so I strongly suggested her to do the same. God forbid she didn’t see things my way. My second wife not only had problems with Saturdays but with the remaining six days. I’m, sure she’s probably mal-nutrient with who ever she’s dominating now but best wishes to her (that oriental whore). God I love that women.

When I was younger it required Q-tip looking thing and a young girl shoving it in my penis, which, by the way isn't as bad as it sounds until of course you go to relieve yourself. In which case all the fury in Hell can't describe the burning sensation you feel in a most sensitive location.

Nowadays you just need pee in a cup and have a little blood drawn. Pussies! I say lets keep with the painful tradition of the Q-tip thingy.

I'm truly sorry, I guess by "elaborate" I meant exactly the opposite of that particular words meaning. Furthermore the words "mallet", "wacked", "pecker" and "yellow type shit" have no place in the same sentence.

I don't think polygamy should even be raised as a possible legality question. America was, sadly enough, built upon religious ties, whether you believe that or not, doesn't matter. Because, America's foundation, was laid with principles similar to the Europe it left, though with different interests.

Overall what I'm getting at, is that polygamy doesn't fit our societal structure. It's surrounded in stigma because of our religious foundational ideals.

America is a monogamous society. Watch Oprah, or Jerry Springer, and you'll see that having more than one, is considered cheating, mistrustful, "playing", slutty, and instilling jealousy, which is in part tied into our competitive nature implied by our economic system, capitalism. One doesn't profit with the ventures spread and out of focus.

However, polygamy IS a widely diverse culture! There are place where it does reside, and is the major foundation of a society. Tibet. Africa. South America. All have socioeconomic niches where polygamy, and polygyny are THE ONLY WAY OF LIFE.

Tibet, it is essential. One couldn't survive without polygyny (one wife, many husbands). The climate, the land, the family, the herd, all need tending. One man cannot do it alone. Polygyny has provided an answer to lifes troubles there.

America = wont work (especially with that bible belt so tight)

I'll agree with that except for the Tibet reasoning which right or wrong hurts my mind and polygamy seems to work quite well in Utah.

OMG! You mean we're going to talk seriously about it?

How does one determine whether something works well or not? Legalizing polygamy doesn't equate with forced polygamy. If polygamy were legalized would the entire nation [whatever one] immediately all become polygamists? Like how countries that allow gay marriage now only allow gay marriage?

Freedom of choice, religion, association. None of these can be truly attained until I marry both of the Olsen Twins.

Behind every great man there is a great woman... or seven...:icon_albi

A man deserves all the wives he can handle, for the most part this is less then 1 and greater then or equal to 0.

Dwarf, are you saying Tibet doesn't operate that way? Why does it hurt your mind?

Cheapprick, I don't have to determine it, all you or anyone else needs to do is look at history, see for yourself. Regions of Tibet have been that way for a long time. And with me merely mentioning and recognizing that, means I'm not against it.

There are some people practicing polygamy here. True.

If polygamy were to be legalized, not everyone would have to be polygamists. True. (such as the gay marriage example)

I'm merely stating my opinion that polygamy wouldn't work in America. Just has gay marriage has not. As you rationalized it, there are of the same essence really, something OTHER than what most religious Americans are comfortably used to.

sad really. I wouldn't mind a few phillies myself. Every rational mans dream!

However I will mention that the "alt.binaries.multimedia.erotica.lesbians" group makes a good point that women work well in pairs and sometimes groups.

I can think of one instance where polygamy would have it's down side.

Imagine being Harry Mudd and having hundreds of android Stella's to deal with.

Q: My husband wants to have a threesome with me and my best friend.

A: Obviously your husband cannot get enough of you! Knowing that there is only one of you he can only settle for the next best thing your best friend. Far from being an issue, this can bring you closer together. Why not get some of your old college roommates involved too? If you are still apprehensive, maybe you should let him be with your friends without you. If you're still not sure then just perform oral sex on him and cook him a nice meal while you think about it.

I think maybe the question should be better worded as “who in this thread has only had sex with one other person”. And if you answer honestly all of us practice polygamy in a way. Eventually after many tries you find yourself with someone you can live with but does that make you monogamist. Things happen, times change, and people certainly change. I don’t know of one person ( that I personally know) who has practiced true monogamy throughout their life. Even my great grandparents.

Decent point.

I think the majority of people didn't answer the question asked in the poll. "Should Polygamy be considered legal?".
Instead most voted with their basic reflex of "I don't want to practice polygamy".

If it weren't for SoulXTC the yes vote would be getting crushed.

I'm not trying to push some wacko values here. I'm talking about the love between a man and a woman, and a woman, and a woman, and a woman, and a woman, and a woman, and a woman, and a woman, and a woman.

sadly I didn't even use c&p there

I suppose in a perfect world I'd vote monogamy. I don't know what a perfect world means but I've known many women I've loved and cherished.
