I know it's hard to imagine given the global reputation, do you know there are women who isn't driven by money nor impressed with status?

Another big fat lie of the century, ma'am.

Women are naturally drawn to men by some factors and the above mentioned factors plays a major role.

In fact they are almost a determining factor with a little of a good habit you can land any woman and the only time these two factors you mentioned above do not play any major role is only when some exceptional cases exist....Go figure

Girls are attracted to men of status and women are attracted to men of virtuous character.

Michelle Obama married an average man that was a by product of a single parent and generous grandparents. He did NOT have any status until 15 years after his wedding!

I disagree. The man is still able to explore and sample in the name of polygamy.

According to some biblical logics if you are married when you married the second or third times, it is not valid according to the eye of the spiritual world.

I didn't mean to bring religion in it but marriage is a religious/spiritual thing. cheesy

How so? Tell that to the pagans that get married, or to the people that only get married in court. Why do you people always want to make everything about religion?

It doesn't matter if animals get married that doesn't changed the fact that marriage is a religious and spiritual thing period.

I don't see why non-religious folks partake in anything religious anyways!

First, polygamy wasn't design to favour or punish any particular individual. With polygamy everyone loose._but society. Demographically, there are more women than their are men to go round them. If you then decide to pair them(monogamy) their centainly would not be enought men to go round. IThis is the problem women are facing today. It often called " Flipside of monogamy"

Its harsh to say, but with monogamy, the majority of women would not be married.

This is assuming it's all women that want to get married. The world or even Nigeria is not as it was, marriage is no more a must. Would like to see a source for your demographic tho

Let's not kid ourselves. Polygamy began because some guy wanted to have his way with more than one woman.

When we talk about status here we aren't subjecting status only to ready-made men with money but a man with prospects and vision ,he talks about it ,he lives it and all his movement is always tending towards his dreams.You can feel him working towards achieving it - This is what I'm talking about.

Michelle Obama wouldn't have married him if he was a school dropout and a junkie even as some women would still marry such men at the end of the day.

Besides, How do you measure the virtue of a man ? We've seen men of virtuous character with an unblemished and tainted history becoming beasts in human clothing murdering their wives or partners or simply turned into a serial abuser.

Because marriage is not a religious thing. It is a social/cultural thing. It means different things in religion, law and culture. But saying it is solely a religious thing is being naive.

I take it you haven't read any of his books. Michelle was dating him towards the end of his undergraduate and he was a weedhead. Weed is a drug boo.

Bill Gates went to college but dropped out and now he is the wealthiest man in the world! Just because someone "looks" like they will have wealth means absolutely nothing!

My original comment still remains.

Being a weed head doesn't make you a junkie and a never-do-well fellow get the difference please.

And I remember saying that even women would still end up with a junkie.

My original statement remains and that is a fact no matter how much you closet feminists try to deny it. grin

I see you're also dummy


Smoking weed doesn't make you a weedhead....anymore than drinking alcohol doesn't make you an alcoholic

Have u ever considered what is like to manage one, let alone multipe wifes? Dont answer.
The men dnt always benefited as you want to believe.
Like i said, society was the winner, not individuals

If I were u I would be worried about your fellow women.
Because one of the reasons for polygyny, was that any woman who is not married, constitute a threat to those who are. Need I explain that as well.

Lol. I am guy dude. It was kinda easy (in those days) to manage multiple wives. Women were very submissive then. They did whatever their husbands told them to. Also, it was kinda the price to pay for wanting a party every night cheesy

Don't talk like we are doing them a favour and also, more wives meant more children which was a big deal then cos they could help in the farm or some sh1t like that.

I see your in the mood to sniff ass..
So you going to come here and rubbish the works of Chinua Achebe_ and all his effort to educated you about your culture before now right. I guess am right about you being a woman grin .Didn't you see how okonkwo often struggle with his wives? Where is the "always submissive" there.
The nature of a woman has always been constant as well as a man.
A good wife is hard to find is true now as it is then.
So don't try to defend what you don't know.

And go back back and read my post. I never said we were doing women a favour. I simply said neither parties won in the arrangement but society_Contrary to the general believe that men had always benefited from polygyny more.
