On yesterdays Oprah, she ventured to the very mysterious Polygamy Ranch in Texas. This very interesting place creates so many questions in the minds of most of us living in the “outside world”. There are both interesting and disturbing aspects of life here. Most of which I will not be discussing. However, one topic that I find interesting is polygamy.
Polygamy is a concept extremely foreign to most of us. The idea of sharing your husband and home with another women can be concerning to say the least. I however, am not sure that it is the worst model for a marriage that there could be. If looked into this further, I think that we would find that there could be benefits to this model.
Imagine coming home from work and it being Amber your sister wife's turn to cook dinner, April’s turn to clean the kitchen, and Allison’s turn to give the kids baths. What would you do with all of that free time? The sharing of household responsibilities, I would imagine is priceless. Not to mention never having to use the old “I have a head ache” excuse again. Instead it’s simple “Don’t touch me, it’s not my day…down the hall you go!” Many women could probably stand to share vacations and gifts in exchange for the “days off” of both household and marriage responsibilities.
The amount of people that it takes to run many American households can add up. Consider the amount of money spent in households with nannies and housekeepers. Now there is no need. You simply split the duties with your “sister wife”. You will never again use the phrase “If only I could clone myself”. Your husband has already cloned you.
Now of course there are women who say that this so sexist, why should men get multiple wives and women not get multiple husbands. These women are clearly not thinking straight. Who would want multiple husbands? That is another person to cook for, another person that can’t find the hamper, another person to hear complain, and yet one more reason why you can’t just go to sleep as soon as you get in bed when you are tired. I believe that upon careful consideration no woman would actually want multiple husbands.
My personality and believes will however not allow me to participate in such behaviors nor am I condoning this. I am simply saying while there are many negatives, there may be more positives than we may think to the polygamy marriage model. Besides, with all my shoes, no man could afford to have multiples of me!
