This thread is a remix of this https://www.nairaland.com/3290032/13-hypocrisies-idiosyncrasies-polygamy

When you exhaust talking about women matter, maybe you'll finally talk a bit about career and investments.

Kob:


That a lady is single at 40 has nothing to do with spiritual or psychic problems!

FortuneTeller:
I have often wondered this as well. So many men have sidechicks, baby mamas, mistresses, etc. It's like Christians close their eyes and pretend it's not happening. How can a couple celebrate 50 years of marriage, when your husband has been dating women for the past 40 years? Lalasticlala I wonder why this didn't make frontpage. It is a very good topic.

Toks2008:


This is indeed a new year...Fortune Teller finding my thread insightful.....interesting!

FortuneTeller:


I have always found your threads enlightening. It's only your hypocrisy I don't like.

Some people think I am crazy when I tell them I don't mind my husband marrying a widow, divorcee or older unmarried women, but you spoke my reasons. All the single guys saying there will be people that will marry them, I put this question to them: can you marry any of them? A few that will say yes might even be playing lip service. I won't let my man know I don't care about it cos I think guys want ladies to be possesive of them too but honestly I don't care as long as he is capable, just and still shows me love and affection.

There is nothing bad in polygamy if you are financially capable. Many people deceiving them self thinking they are deceiving GOd. You claim is a sin to marry two wife, but prefere to commit adultry by having side chick . Even to the extent of having child from another women outside. Wouldn't it better if you marry that side chick legally.
Who says is only polygamy that face problem in marriage. Mongamy do either. A lot of couple ends there marriage nowaday due to infidelity. Is not the availability of suplus marriageable women caused it.?I am not the fans of polygamy,but only GOd knows tomorrow. But it is just provoke me whenever i hear polygamy is a sin or is bad. One man one woman on my football. When you get many girlfriend you Bleep out side marriage. Who is deceiving who

OLAFIMIX:
Thank God you are over 40, help us by marrying as many widows and divorcées as possible.

Toks2008:


I'm not cut out for polygamy but guys who can handle can gladly go ahead.

Kcove:
I agree with the OP, the principle of one-man-one-wife is seriously flawed

FreeSpirited:
Religious folk won't see the logic in this write up cos they are blinded by the sentiments, selfishness and hypocrisy of monogamy. When people don't understand that monogamy is considerably a new concept in the age of things then there will always be problem. Every society in the whole world started with polygamy. Every thing was balanced until Christianity came to distort fact as truth. Even in the Old testament polygamy was well sanctioned. Many halfbaked and hypocritic Christian will say we are in a new era of New testament. Make Una continue una hypocrisy. I dislike Christianity attimes cos of its apparent hypocrisy, though its good trumps its bad.
Since Jesus never mentioned monogamy as being the only marriage sanctioned by Him, coupled with the fact that polygamy was the order of the day during the lifetime of Christ, among the Jews, I dare say polygamy is not a sin nor a crime. Monogomy was enshrined during European civilization using Christianity as a cover. Attendant problem that usually follow polygamy is also the reason why polygamy was socially forbidden using Christianity as its premise.
Little history will tell you that until 16th century polygamy was still the norm in Europe and America. Nothing will forever be wrong with polygamy only for the problems usually caused by the wicked and jealous wives. Anyman who is willing and up to the task in wisdom and finance should go ahead and marry women that won't mind polygamy.
