OT: but curious... Sister Wives?

Ok I know this show is all bout their faith and religion so I don't want this becoming an overly heated discussion but I'm genuinely curious.


I don't know how many of you ladies get time to watch TV or even have cable or etc. But those that do. On TLC there is a new show called Sister Wives. Its bout a man who has 3 wives (just saw a news thing saying that after 16yrs of 3 he just married his 4th) and 16 children I think.

I'm curious on ur guys thoughts on this? Would you watch? I am just bc I'm curious how the women do it! I'm such a jealous woman sometimes I could never stand knowing my man was with another woman 3 doors down. Lol. I get mad thinking of his exs. Anyway ya just wanted some thoughts!

i would like to watch because anthropology is my hobby. im only twenty, but learning about other people and their beliefs is interesting to me. im pretty much unbiased when it comes to things like this.

I've seen things like that as well Joy, where they're forced to marry others. It always reminded me of ancient traditions that used to be practiced.  I as well have no idea if these women want this or not. The other things I've seen was where it was fine. I'm not sure where it was, it was just a standard practice in their culture. Its sad, but even in just a standard couple some men expect the women to wait on them hand and foot. Sometimes I wonder if that will ever really go away no matter what happens.

I agree. Even in my small town I have seen young girls forced into marriage but we can't judge bc they find what we have as bad as well.
