I am sure you just posted this thread to wind up people but I also must vote "NO WAY."

PS What does the man do if the wives wind up liking each other more than him and he becomes superfluous? (and no, he is not allowed to 'watch'.)
How am I brainwashed? Its a fact of nature men are the head of the household. Men are the providers, the hunters, and the protectors.Women need men.

My grandmother used to say that women should have three husbands- one for sex, one to take her dancing and another to bring home the bacon. I would add a fourth- to fix things around the house.

Why is that weird, but a man having more than one wife isn't? I think it should go both ways.

If anyone can marry more than one person, it should be the woman or the man. I think it does make more sense for one woman to have more husbands.

Maybe in 10th century ______-istan!

Yes, let's all go back to live life how it was in the 10th century under fundamentalist Islam!

I no speak unless my husband say so! I no go nowhere unless my husband, dad or brother accompany me! My face covered in veil and my body covered in burka! It be my fault if another man than husband see me and rape me, so I must cover up!

My father gave me to my husband and my husband owns me as a wife and I have no say in whether he wants to own other women too as wives!

First thing I will do now that I have been enlightened as to the real truth is quit my job and tell my husband, "YOU are the sole provider and hunter!" YEA! No more long hours! I can sit at home and wait for him to provide all!

Seriously, now ... are you wearing a burka while typing this stuff?
