You seem too carried off by the western construct of marriage as one-man-one-woman. That is their own. We have a culture of polygamy rooted in Africa. Times are changing, but I am not so carried away as to demonize polygamy. There is nothing wrong with polygamy, as much as there's nothing wrong with monogamy. There is everything wrong with people who in any kind of marriage, who are unable to manage their conflicts.

It is a fallacious generalization that more conflict exists within polygamous families.
Tell me about 10 troubles in poligamous homes and I will give you 10 worse troubles in nonogamous homes. They harm to social stability is the same.

I fully agree with you on all the views except what I have said up here.
Ever since she read that one Emenanjo article titled: WHAT DO WOMEN REALLY WANT? This "Dewdrops" has been behaving true to what that article was postulating--running her acidic 'mouth' like tap water.If he is not calling the guy names for presenting his observation based on facts, she is busy rigmaroling running away from those facts. Could someone in NVS tell her to stop name-calling and address the issues raised. Haba!
