Isn't marriage jewelry a borrowed tradition. I don't think our tradition does that. In fact as far as nigerian culture is concerned the woman is like the cow in the barn or the couch he sits and farts on while he stretches out his leg and scratches his balls.

Polygamists dont wed, they simply get married,,,,,

Fhemmmy:

i am sure they can chose to wear it, but the ring will be with the first wife and not the rest of the women.
also, real wedding, i blv is only for the first wife and not the other

Ilelobola:

Depends on who he takes to the Registry as he is only actually married to that person; all others are mistress/common-law wives (if that term exists in Nigeria)

I've seen women in polygamous marriages wear it, makes them feel married even if they are not. Why a man would marry more than one wife or a woman allow herself to be anything but the only wife beats me.

royalicon:

if a man has 4 wifes, all the wifes will have their rings on, then the man should put on all the 4 rings at once

boladonas:


[size=24pt]In fact a true polygamist, has no wife!!!

He has plenty of women[/size]

Of course each wife will have her wedding ring and the man will have one ring at any time. There is no complication in it at all.

This is no doubt an interesting topic and it will no doubt provide me the needed opportunity to say a few things about polygamy. I cannot but always wonder why we as African cannot most of the time maintain our identity,our culture and values. We always want to toe the line of westerners and doing all they do that has to do with their culture and traditions. From time immemorial,our fore-fathers are polygamist in nature and things were a lot better during their time than now. One can hardly hear about divorce or unfaithfulness but what do we have on our hands today? Divorcee all the places. When are we going to embrace what is ours and do away with western values that negates our culture? A white man or woman gets married today and tommorow you see hi/her going to court for divorce and re-marrying again. What do we call such man or woman? They can give the flimsiest of reason for divorcing all in a bid to go into their adultrous relationship.

Rather than do that,is it not better to have different sizes and shapes you need in a woman as wives for yourself if you can afford it as long as the women have no objection to being in the relationship. Millions of weeding rings has been thrown into the lagoon as a result of infidelity. What then is so special about wearing this ring or not wearing it? Going spiritual,i want to add that most of the people God most loved in the holy bible are even polygamist. God is really not concerned about how many wife you have or do not have but only concerned himself with your heart. Ring is never an issue,please.

Do they get engaged?

Lagosboy:

Talk of a realist!!! i love people who face reality and are practical.

All these people clamouring for monogamy have several concubines and many girls will date married men otherwise how are these married men having girlfirends in the first insatnce. If you can sleep with a married man, enjoy his money it is hypocritical to condemn polygamy.

Some do some dont , it depends on the culture, religion and so on. The ring is not an issue of importance at all as far as i am concerned for men especially. How many of our fathers wear wedding rings lets look inwards first.
