What do you think of polygamy?
It is good to be open-minded. It is practised in the Old Testament. Muslims claim that they do it out of social necessity, with a maximum of four wives permitted. Allegedly, it was practised in Ireland and Germany beyond the year 1000.
HOWEVER: What do you think of the following quotation:
"In spite of Brigham Young's grandiose statement "The only men who become gods or even the sons of God are those who enter into polygamy," he was henpecked to a fare-thee-well. One of his 27 wives, Amelia Folsom, demanded and got a private carriage, a big house, and a box at the theater. When he gave her a sewing machine and she saw it wasn't the Singer she had asked for, she threw it at him."
Realistically, how could one man like Brigham Young, who held several offices and made frequent business trips out of town, satisfy 27 wives at one time? (without a little help?)
Don't you think that "henpecked to a fare-thee-well" is a cute expression?
Its not my thing but whatever makes u happy do. I couldn't share my man with anyone else.
