You need to use your brain.
I thought logic is about focusing in and out of a box.


Lessons in logic/reasoning/morality for tingtingz

1) Polygamy is anti-woman because it posits that one man is equal to two or more women. The reverse remains true for polyandry.
So why do we find women accepting polygamy proposal?

Let start from Nigeria where single mothers are stigmatize.

are you the one to tell what's right and what's wrong?

2) Choice does not equal morality or right. ISIS had a choice to behead or release american journalists. They chose to behead.
The ISIS enjoy the killing, the journalist they killed is from a nation they hate, their enemy.

...so it is a score to them.

3) ISIS chose to behead journalist. Women can choose to try out patriarchy. Women can choose to be slaves. Choice does not mean morality.


choice is about possibilities.

To the ISIS killing their enemy is a score to them.

we are talking about what is beneficial to someone, to some women polygamy is not anti-woman because they benefit from it.

BABE3:

In this day and age where more women are getting comfortable with being "side chics" and baby mamas, I wonder why polygamy is causing this much debate. Aren't those concepts similar to polygamy?



Polygamy is all about choices; a choice for the man to acquire more wives; a choice for the first wife to get a divorce if she's not pleased, and a choice for the other wives to embrace polygamy.


Dont be silly.

Marriage is a contract regulating a relationship between individuals recognized by the state.

Concubines and baby mamas are not a recognized union/relationship. You dont get tax reductions and considerations as a concubine.



Polygamy wants to expand the marriage contract to be between more than two people. Tufiakwa! Haram!!!

If the man brings home a second wife and the first wife leaves coz she's not comfortable, that's monogamy. If the man brings home a third wife and the second wife leaves, that's monogamy. And so on. The man will be forced to be monogamous if women don't like polygamy.

It's the women that have the final say, so why cry foul?

if all the parties agree to it, how is it your problem??

And if the first wife doesn't want to be a part of polygamy, who is preventing her from leaving the marraige (since marriage is not a lifetime contract)?

Some women make the wrong choices. Some women are desperate to escape from poverty and they become second or third wives. It still doesnt make it right.


Single mothers is another issue for another day..

Right and wrong are a matter of reasoning, logic and effectiveness. Advanced societies try their best to adhere to policies that work, that are logical and that are a result of serious reasoning/planning.

Polygamy is neither effective or logical from a societal point of view.

Slavery is also beneficial to the slave-master and the house-negro (house-slave). It doesnt mean that slavery is good. Do you know that some house slaves wouldnt leave their slave masters because of the free housing and food?

Of course, I will support any wife that wants to leave polygamy. grin grin


If all the parties agree, who is then going to go through the wahala of reconciling their public records? How do you tax a man with four wives sensibly? How do you divide the assets or inheritance of a family with four wives?

If a man has four wives, how does one divide a compound into four? Who then owns the property when the man dies? Who owns the deeds to the house? Do you think western society rejects polygamy without thinking?

Do you know that wills are contested? Do you know that many even die without wills?

A monogamous marriage is very easy to settle in times of divorce, inhertiance and settlements. It will easily be between the alive spouse and children.

you are a cretinous vermin!
biblical jewish tradition is barbaric by whose standards? what a sheep!



you are a rank idïot!
men are living with multiple wives in europe. it's the ceremony that is illegal, not the act. muslims in the UK have more than one wife in their homes & they practise their polygamy openly.



your propensity to stretch the borders of daftness is unrivalled. i said so - your lack of exposure is your biggest challenge, not polygamy. you have deludedly concluded the only reason any woman would marry an already married man is because of dependency.

the former wife of the london mayor(boris johnson) married an islamic polygamous man.
this was her reason - I realise that I am unlikely to conceive children [at my age] so we agreed that, so long as he chooses a good partner, then I am happy to live together in an extended family



if they aren't better, why are the western folks there? a chunky percentage of the people doing menial jobs over there are western folks. their health sector & oil sector are ridden with western folks. they are very rich, little or no drug problems & homelessness is almost nonexistent like you will find in many western countries today.



like i told you, it's the ceremony that is illegal in the UK. any man can marry 22 wives in nigeria & ship all the women to britain & leave with them till the day he dies.





There is no need to argue any more with you. You have lost and are shifting the argument.

Furthermore, you talk like a local person. How can someone compare UAE, Kuwait and Saudi to the west? Google the most advanced countries and the most female friendly countries and see whether you will find any of these three in the top 10 rankings.



Polygamy is illegal in advanced countries and in the top 10 countries for women ranking. Go figure. Their societies are progressing without your barbaric practice of polygamy

the dynamics are very vast these days. gone are the days women ran after married men because of dependency. these days, women(including europeans) are doing it for other reasons apart from religion & gold-digging.


If the man brings home a second wife and the first wife leaves coz she's not comfortable, that's monogamy. If the man brings home a third wife and the second wife leaves, that's monogamy. And so on. The man will be forced to be monogamous if women don't like polygamy.

don't mind the moaners.
all those wives abiola had were forced into the marriage. fela married about 32 women in a white wedding sometime ago, he must have held all of them with a revolver to follow him to church.


It's the women that have the final say, so why cry foul?... please what's the problem here? grin

women who do it know why they do it......this is another excuse by a top female professional working for the home office in britain.

‘I don’t have time to have a bloke around all the time. I just want to see him maybe twice a week, so it works perfectly if he’s got another wife who can take care of all his cooking and cleaning.’”

and yet illogical boy says polygamy is anti-women? never met anyone so low in IQ in my entire life.

This boy is not serious. cheesy grin I actually thought you had a major problem with polygamy. So its taxing polygamists that's giving you concern ? grin


They will be taxed accordingly. Humans are smart; we've always found ways to solve problems as little as that.
You said who'll go through the wahala of reconciling public records? Well, the tax people's work load will increase thereby creating more jobs. Problem solved.


As per divorce and inheritance, it's common sense. Any woman going into polygamy will embrace sharing everything. If the man dies, his wealth will be shared accordingly. If the man wants to divorce one of his wives, she gets her share.

The law will be harder on the man. He won't be able to leave all his wives at once coz the consequences will be huge. So the main responsibility lies on him. Thereby making any man going into polygamy to think twice.

These things are easy.

You have probably blinded yourself to the fights and struggle for property/assets that polygamy has wrecked on many Nigerian families.
