  1. 1 man with 7 wives equals a weak household.

    1 woman and 7 husbands equates to a strong household.

    In case of a military conflict or intrusion, 7 women will not be able to defend the home.

    7 men will be able to defend the home.

  2. It’s amazing how most people here don’t seem to be acknowledging the fact that this man takes care of 5 women and 24 kids. He has two houses, his own business, and pays $4000 in grocery bills every month. He spends a night with each wife and takes care of their physical, emotional, and sexual needs. He is an alpha male. There are many women in the West prostituting themselves online and offline to pay their rent. Meanwhile, this man’s wives are able to live comfortable, dignified lives because they have a strong husband. Yes, they have to share him. But like one of his wives said, “I would rather have 20% of a good man than to have 0”. You could also say that it’s better to have 20% of a good man than to have 100% of a bad one.

    It's also amazing how people here are quick to find issue with something godly and good (like polygamy), but they seem to have no issue with evil. They seem to have no issue with people watching porn, having sex and children out of wedlock, same-sex relations, etc., but when a man practices polygamy, then all of sudden people find issue with it. All of a sudden, the mantra of “live and let live” flies out the window, and people take issue with, what are, consensual relations between adults.

    Also, some of the comments seem to suggest that the wives have low self-esteem, and that is the reason why they are willing to share their husband. Do they also complain about the e-girls and online prostitutes having low self-esteem, or is their ire only reserved for the religious? Do they complain that there is something wrong with lesbians, who do not find men attractive despite a large part of their bodies being designed for reproduction with men? They probably don’t. But when women want a strong husband who can not only take care of them and their kids, but also 4 other women and their kids, then all of a sudden people think that there’s something wrong with them.
