The things y'all have shared are some of the things I've been told about polygamy and a big part of the reason I disagree with it...so thank you all for confirming that I'm not crazy (though the jury may still be out on that one lol).<br /><br />And Jayme I totally think me and you both need a housekeeper lol.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16136971835857942609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3708241870814479419.post-18118018444675468892010-10-08T02:02:40.130-04:002010-10-08T02:02:40.130-04:00I'd totally love to have another wife to do th...I'd totally love to have another wife to do the cooking and cleaning or bring in more income.

He was married and still wanted others to join in his family as wives, but not legally of course. He really started hitting hard and heavy on one of the pretty young ladies attending this college and soon they were dating. The private college hired him. He tried using them holding religious preference against him, but smart college it had in the contract that the teachers couldn't fraternize with the students.<br />He kept coming around though waiting for her and such even after he was fired. The sad thing was she wasn't even of that faith and I don't really think she knew what she was getting herself into.<br />I do think she ended up with one baby from him, yet they didn't stay with him. I think she wised up. I mean he already had his first wife and about eight children with her. I think he was just looking for a young thing that had more time to dot on him since the first wife was so tied down to the raising of her brood.lfhpueblohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01860942907478830438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3708241870814479419.post-5701949035523719052010-10-07T23:58:29.888-04:002010-10-07T23:58:29.888-04:00I thought it was crazy when the ladies said they w...I thought it was crazy when the ladies said they were comfortable with another wife but were jealous of him having the girlfriend. HELLO, your marriages are not legal anyways so what is the big difference? I guess they only feel comfortable with their husband sleeping with another woman if he's doing it under the same roof.lezanachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01979544671638181837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3708241870814479419.post-58347951570616245792010-10-07T15:49:57.749-04:002010-10-07T15:49:57.749-04:00My knee jerk reaction is disgust and revulsion, pl...My knee jerk reaction is disgust and revulsion, plain and simple. Though my overall attitude toward other people and life is general is "live and let live" I can't help but feel this way.<br /><br />I have a family member who works at a govt agency in an area where polygamous unions are somewhat common. Have you ever wondered how a man can support all these "wives" and children while the rest of the country with normal families are struggling? How can plural families thrive when a typical family composed of one wife, one husband, and a child or two are struggling to make end meet?<br /><br />Apparently, the dirty little secret is that because the "sister wives" are not legally married, they live on public assistance that they are eligible for because they are "single" and often have many children. <br /><br />This is not to say that the family on the TLC lives this way, but other living this lifestyle do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3708241870814479419.post-58060562275282656912010-10-07T14:34:01.872-04:002010-10-07T14:34:01.872-04:00Leah I don't get it either.

I mean sure...there have been times in my life where I wished I could clone myself just so I could have someone else have sex cause my drive is just not like my husbands, but in NO WAY would I ever be OK with him finding another wife to do it with. He can get a bottle of lotion and a rag.<br /><br />But.I.Can't.Stop.Watching.The.Show.<br /><br />Then they have that one daughter on there who says there is NO WAY she will have multiple husbands. That to me, is very interesting. What is she seeing in that house, that we aren't seeing, that has made her totally think the opposite of her family's beliefs and what she has grown up with?Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16600064714120615224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3708241870814479419.post-23221205296174525552010-10-07T12:39:11.384-04:002010-10-07T12:39:11.384-04:00Thank you!
