Polygamy=Constant Sex?

This brother keeps it real regarding polygamy. Read the following paragraph:

John Tank Williams
I noticed something about you brothers on facebook who promote POLYGAMY.....you never speak about the ECONOMIC side of POLYGAMY......you know like "how much it would actually cost to run that shit". I'm sorry but you can't raise 8 kids and support 4 wives working at PUBLIX making $9.75 an hour....oh, but I get it....you gonna put your wives to work right??? well, if you do that then you're gonna have 4 tired, angry, frustrated, unhappy ass women........same ol nigga shit.....Let's be honest brah, you just want a whole lotta booty in the house, right??? If you talking about POLYGAMY without ECONOMICS, don't call it POLYGAMY....call it POO-NIGGA-ME.....ol Pussy hawk ass niggas.........

 

My View: Aside from the foul language, this man has a point. Many men who choose to engage in polygyny DON'T count the cost. All they think about is having multiple women in the house; which means they get sex anytime they want (which may/may not be true, depending on the women involved). Taking care of ONE family is tough, but to be responsible for multiple women? Nah, I'll pass. Some men don't consider the huge responsibility of trying to keep multiple women happy. It's all about sex for some of these thirsty men. Each woman brings her own set of attributes and skills to the table, and for polygyny to be successful, all women must come together to help the man build. Polygamy is like a company: The man is CEO, and the women function as his employees; each woman plays her position. The main wife (the one he marries) must support her husband's polygamy lifestyle. That's where the problem lies, because most women would not go for their man having multiple wives. Let a man tell his wife he wants to be a polygamist, see how that works out for him. There are some women who would be ok with polygyny, because when you consider both spouses working full-time to provide for their family, the husband & wife will need assistance with daily home operations. Let's do the math: $14 hour * 40 hours * 52 weeks a year=That's $29,120 a year a husband is bringing home; not counting taxes. A husband engaged in polygyny (a man having multiple wives) CANNOT support 4 wives and 8 children off of that salary. If a man is going to engage in polygamy, he better have multiple income streams. Sure, he can put his wives to work, but the wives are going to be unhappy, and irritable. Hondo Solomon (a Facebook friend, and author of The Polygamist Papers: An Introduction to Polygamous Culture and Its Principles, Pitfalls, and Ethics) approaches polygamy from a practical standpoint. Most men think about having a bunch of women, but none of the business that goes with taking care of a family, providing for, and guiding them.
