You read and even replied to my post, read it again dude :D
^ Not really, to have multiple wives men would have satisfy the conditions (unless someone here comes up with proof otherwise):
They can take care of their wives and give them the same respect and love needed
Care for them equally
Those conditions cannot be satisfied by normal human beings unless they're extraordinary. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was that extraordinary human.
The reason men have four wives today isn't because they're dying to give all four respect, its because of sex. Hence that selfish motivation in itself would render the marriages useless and gunnah.
^ Really? According to you in the following sentences I said that a person has to be prophet Muhammad to marry four times:

Don’t you comprehend your own language? Or are you saying that there are people out there who can be prophet muhammad and hence can marry multiple times?
Oho I said ‘‘you’d have to be EXTRAORDINARY’’ I did NOT say you’d have to be Prophet Muhammad . Just post the lines where I said ‘‘You’d have to be Prophet Muhammad to marry four times’’
when you love somebody more than they love you then you leave yourself so vulnerable to getting hurt. i would feel so fortunate if he would love and care for me a lot more than i could imagine, like i’m all he has. it’s like how the ghost loves her so much more than she can imagine and more than her husband(who didn’t give a crap for her) in that movie “paheli”
oh like this video, yes it’s hollywood “looove” but i’m sure there are loads of examples of the man loving the woman much more than she loves him.

When you say it like that it does sound like you would have to be on a level similar to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) to be able to handle multiple marriages, when in reality that's not true. One doesn't have to extraordinary to be able to divide his time among say two wives. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was extraordinary and he had nine wives at a time. Which is why the limit for us normal folks is 4. It isn't too hard to equally respect two or three women and divide your time between them, and caring for them equally is sorted anyway if you're rich and loaded. As for being fond of one wife more than the others, that is normal human behaviour and even the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was more fond of Hazrat Aisha RA than his other wives. If a man is not sexually satisfied from his wife and marries again for that reason, how can you judge him for being disrespectful to the first wife when it is Islamically allowed?
there were many other people during that time who did have multiple wives…which means…it is possible for ‘humans’ to do it…albeit very difficult…making it sound as if its just impossible makes it sound as if God played a prank on us by allowing 4 wives and making it impossible at the same time…
and yes…the message conveyed by a paragraph matters…and not the specific semantics..
The only positive thing coming out of this, within a short time frame, will be the sweet and sour longing of the greatest love story that could have been.
