Multiple Wives

[Niksik]

@MatineeSiren

Who are you to say that? a second wife will cheat the first wife because she demands half of the first husbands time. The husband gets 100% attention and love from both wives, but now has to separate his time equally between the other two. A mistress is less likely to get knocked up and thus take more money from the husband, but a second wife has rights to inheritance, money, etc. It’s cheating the first wife of love, stability, and happiness.

Again. I’d rather have my husband mess with some woman on and off than take so much time away from me. An affair can be solely about sex, but marriage demands more than that.
So, polygamy cheats the wives emotionally as well.

Matinee, I don’t think any woman can handle her husband sleeping with another woman. Be realistic. Regarding marrying another wife, yeah that too is hard to swallow or handle. But coming down to Islam, I rather have my husband be married and not get gunah instead of committing zina for which the punishment is terrible.
