So hear me out here!
I started watching TLC's new show, Sister Wives, about a fundamental polygamist family in Utah.
Three wives with another on the way... 16 kids with 4 more on the way (one biological, three from wife no. 4) .. all living happily under one roof.
One BIG roof.
So at first, I was just curious. Being a fan of HBO's Big Love, I just wanted to see how it played out FOR REAL for real.
And guess what?
This conservative Christian got to thinking that maybe they were on to something!
Think of how many issues it would solve.
Think about all the things wives are responsible for.. the house, the laundry, the kids, the husband, the dinner, the pets, etc. etc. etc.
Think about how many times you've said, ".. OMG! SOMEBODY TAKE SOME OF THE LOAD!"
Think about how many times you were forced to deal with an issue that you really didn't want to deal with but had to because you were the only one who was there to do it!
Are you feeling me here??
Wouldn't be great to have someone else that could share the load? That you could be a shoulder to lean on when you get over-stressed because THEY know EXACTLY what you're talking about and how you feel?
And really... how many times has your husband gotten so on your nerves that you wished they would just GO AWAY for a little bit to give you space.
See my point here??
Realize, that they have their own issues going on and maybe it's just the time and space I'm in right now that makes being able to hand over all the responsibilities to someone more capable then the man I live with seem so appealing!
It was funny though that they really emphasized the fact that they only have sex one on one with their husband and there's no getting the "weird" on as they put it!
Anyway... comment away and let me know what you think!
