Could you ever be Mormon or in a multi-wife cult? (20)
It depends on how hot the other wives are...

No, but I wouldn't mind having a harem of men to tend to all my fantasies and desires... not to mention support me and all of our children... LOL

sweetowen: I'm curious as to how many women here would be able to tolerate being in one of those marriages where you share your husband with multiple wives. Could you stand the thought of him having children to many different women & treat the children as if they were your own? Could you stand the thought of your man being in bed with another woman... & then another... & another. How would you feel, sitting down to meals with these other women, your husband, & all your children?
Just a few questions to ponder. And please answer as honestly as possible.

It`s only natural ( a law of nature) for a Man to have more than one wife.... but some smartars decided that we should become "Civilized" and go against nature

Six wives with everyone resting on Sunday sounds like a very good plan to me.

First off sweetowen, it would be nice to hear your own view on this...Just a few questions to ponder. And please answer as honestly as possible.
But anyway, i think the biggest psychological hurdle in such a polygamous relationship is going against the norm and the feeling of being 'stupid' enough to get yourself in anything of the sort. However that does tend to change depending on the society/culture/religion you happen to be in.
Beyond that is the obvious difficulties you mention of the very idea of sharing your loved one. Actually studies of such relationships have found that while what you say is true, the love/hate/jealousy/competitiveness generated by the complex setup keeps a balance of sorts. Sleeping with the 'husband' is usually on a turn basis agreed to by the women and thus each woman usually makes the best of her night in order to prove herself to him and subconciously to spite the others. Therefore the physical intimacy is kept on an optimum level. Also the man is subconciously pressured to perform well and keep each of his wives happy as otherwise he would create an inbalance which would in turn ruin everything. Since (lets face it), financial and physical difficulties apart, the man in this setup stands to gain most than he would of course be extra careful not to crash the whole thing. Thus intimacy in this setup is at times much more intense than in a monogamous relationship since no threat is felt there.
I personally think that the best balance is achieved in a 1 man/3 woman relationship and the reason is as follows: With 2 woman, the other 'wife' either becomes her friend and both women gang up on the husband or else they become eternal rivals and will have a constant tug-of-war to drive the husband away from each other. With 3 woman it is very difficult for all 3 to agree on everything all of the time so constant alliances of 2 from the 3 will be formed from time to time against the 3rd on different issues and thus the husband will rarely find himself under attack from all 3 but rather end up intervening to settle matters.
Unfaithfullness again is not usually an issue as the inter-personal relationships and the work involved by all to keep the complex union going is simply too exhaustive and tends to keep the focus internally so to speak. Everyone including the husband is constantly working to keep the balance and therefore no boredom ensues and taking your monogamous partner for granted is not really allowed here. Well it certianly creates an interesting setup though i'm sure not one for everyone!

Sure, one to cook and one to clean...

Biologically speaking it makes more sense for a woman to have multiple husbands. The problem comes of course in knowing who the father is if the woman gets pregnant, not so with the Mormon model.

Uh in a word no..I do NOT play well with others. But, to each their own and who am I to judge, for some it works, but not my cup of tea. Besides, I am still looking for ONE man that can handle me...lol

When I was married..I prayed that my husband would get another wife so he'd leave me the hell alone. In my next marriage..I plan to be happy so the answer is no..
