In all honesty now, would you like to have a
Posted: Mar 22, 2011
I've been watching the show 'Sister Wives' lately. In all honesty, would you like to have a sister wife? I think I might not hate it...having someone to share the day to day tasks with, raise the kids with (being another woman, cause men and women are so vastly different), hang out with...what do you think?

[ In Reply To ..]I watch the show too, Im just intrigued. I do think that I would like the help part but I dont think I could handle the sharing my husband part..I guess Im insecure but I would constantly be thinking does he like her better and probably feel a little jealous when she was pregnant and things like that, even though I dont want any more kids it would be knowing that she was pregnant by him...Anyway, thats just my feelings...On a side note, I went to bed exhausted last night after watching the DVR of the show and joked with my DH that I needed a sister wife...he said....I wouldnt have the stamina....LOL
Heck No - To The Freak Show

I don't think I could deal with sharing my husband. - cll
[ In Reply To ..]I have watched the show out of curiosity and do not understand how they do it. I think you can get all the sisterly support you would need from your girlfriends and family. They even admit that they have jealousy issues, I know I would!
divorced and remarried? - tynkerbelle
[ In Reply To ..]sister wives...yes, i watched the show and was thinking about it too. divorce/remarriage/children........ ....in deep thought...married people who get divorced and remarried again are pretty much in the same situation. this one is out in the open and the women are just dumb enough to settle for one man. if i were in that situation, another man would definitely be in the picture. i would have the "sisters" babysit while i went out and had some fun.
Yes I definitely would - anonymoose
[ In Reply To ..]I watched a couple episodes of Sister Wives and was really interested in it. Then it went off for I don't know how long, I think there was some type of lawsuit or something (unsure exact details), then I never saw it come back on. Wish I had.
My thoughts on it. Yes I would love to have sister wives. It would be nice to have family that close to you. Yes I could share my husband with others. Actually they can all have him and that would be fine. LOL. No, I would not be jealous. Never have been even when younger and I saw women flirt with him when we were first married. I guess jelousy is just not in my nature. I would actually love a part-time husband. I'd love to share responsibilities and live within close proximity each other. It's a lifestyle I could definitely live with. However...there is always a however...I don't agree with their religion. Which is kind of ironic because the way they live is because of their religion. So, I'd love to have sister wives, but no religion.
probably not! - :)
[ In Reply To ..]The whole sister wives thing I think eats into the male ego. It seems everytime I see a talkshow about cheating some guy talks about how he is bored or can't get what he needs from his wife. This just seems another excuse.... HEY bored with your wife get another. When you add more people to your marriage that could get complicated. Sure helping out with the kids is great... but kids grow and soon it's a bunch of elder women sharing one man who probably has to take a lot of Viagra.
I am a true Mormon - Mormon woman
[ In Reply To ..]When people find out I am Mormon, they always ask me the #1 question: "Why do you still practice polygamy." Then I have to tell them that this practice was abolished a long time ago, and the true Mormon church does not practice this anymore. There are what we call non-Mormon sects that practice outside the laws of the true church and are not sanctioned by the church in this day and age. We don't look down on anyone, nor do we think we are better than anyone else, but we know it is an illegal practice, but it still calls attention to our church in an otherwise unfriendly way. I am judged whenever I tell someone I am Mormon, and people can't get around the fact that the church once practice polygamy in the 1800s. The polygamous churches that practice today stay apart from others in groups that house their own families and adhere to their own policies and laws. It is still illegal, particularly in Utah, but as I said they have their own little communities. We stand against it because the girls in these communities are under age when they are sealed to men who are quite a lot older, so we believe that is the same as child abuse. I am not saying that this happens in the program on television, and they seem like very loving and committed people, but mainly that is not the case. I don't think I could share my husband, but there are days I think I sure would like a break, and they all work as a unit, helping with the children, housework, and having someone there when you are sick is quite a comfort.
Someone in my family became a Mormon and I attended.... - anonymoose (see message)
[ In Reply To ..]a Mormon church way way way way time ago. After I moved while in college I had a friend who was Mormon and I went to her services. Then about six or seven months or so later it just didn't feel right to me. About 25 years later is when I heard someone in my family had joined a local church. I do understand that they are not polygamist, except for a few that stray away. But I was just referring to that show and how I could live like that, but don't agree with their religious viewpoints (theirs meaning the people on the show), but I also just don't agree with the Mormon religion at all. My family shares a lot about what they do with their church and friends. But having attended myself and listening to my family I just don't believe in that and that's fine. I know a lot of people don't believe in my spiritual beliefs (paganism).
