I had no idea this interest had a name. It's very heartening (and exciting!) to learn that there are other women out there who share this interest.

I'm in a loving relationship with a sweet, caring man. We've been married for nearly a year now, and I'm his third wife. We live in a country where this is legal.

Is anyone else in a marriage/long-term relationship where you get to enjoy cuckqueaning? I've talked with my co-wives about this, albeit in a roundabout way, but they just don't share my enthusiasm for it.

Pic somewhat related. I had a conversation with some nice women today (we're on vacation in the United States), and when the subject turned to our marriages, they reacted with disgust and anger when I told them that my husband has multiple wives and that I'm completely OK with it. One of these women was divorced and another had talked about how she was in a loveless marriage, and yet my successful, passionate marriage is somehow bad? Why are so many Western women so viciously opposed to polygyny, even when all parties consent? Has anyone here run afoul of this standard?

Welcome! I was surprised when I discovered that others were into this too. Cuckqueans are pretty rare but recently more and more are coming out of the woodwork as they discover it's an actual thing and they're not alone. I'm in a long-term relationship where cucking's become a big part of things, but not poly.

If I can ask, how do you get your cucking fix in the marriage? Do you watch him with your co-wives or are they shy about it? We don't get to hear about the day-to-day sexual realities of group marriages very much, so I'm curious.

There was some discussion about shocked double standard responses that people get over in >>688, albiet from the male partner's perspective. There are many, many reasons why the idea that a women is okay with her man having multiple partners shocks and angers a lot of Western women. Many associate polygyny as an oppressive practice that a woman couldn't possibly be okay with, one that advantages the man to the disadvantage of the woman. They also associate it with practices such as child brides, withholding educations and other such things because it's presented as part of a big cultural package - actual realities be damned.

Talking out my ass here, but I think perhaps a deeper reason is that especially in the USA, everyone unconsciously absorbs the cultural idea that status is everything and that every interaction is a deal with a winner and loser. If there's no loser, Americans will imagine one. For many American women, whose social conditioning can best be described as "schizophrenic" (be pure! but be a slut! you're beautiful! but not beautiful enough! get along with everyone! but be STRONK! you're better than men! but they've usurped your seat so it's okay to manipulate and cheat!) the anger you see is a defence mechanism against damage to their inner status quo. It's a special kind of incubated insecurity, created organically by a system that's discovered that deeply insecure people make far better consumers. So, to them you're effectively accepting a lower status position and are happy about it - this doesn't compute so clearly you're being coerced even if you say you're not. The anger discharges the energy that would otherwise threaten a change to how their world is organised.

Regardless of the reason, I know many cuckqueans are terrified they'll be found out and shunned.

Pic unrelated, but much nicer than the text.

despite the claims of being progressive, they usually are not. a lot of people see the "strong woman who don't need no man" thing as progressive, but the problem is that they think that is the only way to be progressive, and completely miss the point of progressive ideals: being tolerant of others lifestyles. because they think that one way is the only way, they become intolerant themselves.

BUT ANYWAY

a cuckquean in a poly relationship sounds like there are some stories to be told or feels to share…. willing to share some thoughts and feelings about your relationship?

It has strong religious ties in the US because the Mormon Church has a large presence in one region and some adherents mingled in with the general population almost everywhere, and they're the most well-known practitioners. There are also a fair number of "tell-all" books that have been published by men and women who have "escaped" bad situations within a Mormon home. For some there is an association with polygyny and abuse because of this.

Of course there's also the longstanding problem of gender roles, which is something that polygyny revels in, to an extent. As modern women fight not to be pigeonholed as homemakers, they reflexively reject anything that would imply that a woman is worth any less than a man. Perhaps more simply put, they simply don't believe that any man deserves more than one woman.

Slightly tangental, but how do you get along with the other two wives? What kind of emotional dynamics exist between co-wives, anyway? Like, do you work together for the good of the household? Compete with each other? Get your own little patch, parallel to the others? Gossip together about your mutual husband? Has a hierarchy formed?

Sorry to ask, it's just that this is just something I don't have any background or context to really understand and I'm super-interested to hear about it first-hand.

>If I can ask, how do you get your cucking fix in the marriage?
I love hearing about his exploits with my co-wives. Sometimes he has us compete amongst ourselves for his affections. He has a fetish for tickling, for example, and will often make us have a three-way tickle fight to determine who gets to have sex with him that night if more than one of us wants him. His second wife usually wins. It fills me with a mix of jealousy and joy to see them walk off to bed together. I do sometimes listen to him when he's with one of the others. I've told him how much I enjoy him having sex with other women, and he goes out of his way to accommodate me. He teases me about it sometimes too because he knows how much I love it.
>Do you watch him with your co-wives or are they shy about it?
I don't watch, but it's not so much because they're shy, it's just that we're all really conservative. We're comfortable being less than fully clothed around one another, but actual sex is always done behind closed doors. We have done lightly sexual things with one another for our husband's viewing pleasure, but he only has sex with one of us at a time.

>a cuckquean in a poly relationship sounds like there are some stories to be told or feels to share…. willing to share some thoughts and feelings about your relationship?
I can't tell you how much I love it! I value white people very highly, so it's quite an honor to have a white husband. Both sets of my grandparents are very proud of me and say I've married up (i.e. got extremely lucky in who I married). My mom wanted me to give her all-Bruneian children and isn't quite as pleased, but she hasn't disowned me or anything. (Wanting all-Bruneian children is quite silly anyway, since we're essentially like America in that "Bruneian" is more related to a political entity than an actual ethnic group; Bruneians vary widely in appearance.)

I should probably also mention that I'm Muslim. Polygyny is specifically allowed in the Qur'an; a man can have up to four wives. From what I've read on this board, I seem to view cuckqueaning a bit differently from most people. It's not quite as controversial in Muslim countries for a man to cuck his wife, so long as he's married to the other woman. Cuckqueaning isn't a wildly popular interest however, nor is polygyny particularly common, and even among those with multiple wives, they usually live apart. This was apparently also the case even in ancient times. The three of us all live together in the same house with our husband, even though he's bought us all our own separate houses if we wanted to use them, though mostly we don't.

At first, I was quite surprised at how much attention he pays to me, sexually. I thought he'd probably ignore me more, or at least divide his time equally between us, but talking with my co-wives, he has sex with me the most. We've been using contraception though, so no children for me yet.

He already has one child with his white wife, who is absolutely gorgeous - blonde hair, blue eyes, tall, and looks like she could be a model. She's from eastern Europe. They're going to try to have another child soon, which makes me happy beyond words. The fact that he's actively having children with another woman makes me so extremely happy. I suppose that there's a racial element to my fascination with cuckqueaning - he's having pure white children and I'm so very happy for him, and knowing that it's something I can never do for him feeds into my interest.

>Slightly tangental, but how do you get along with the other two wives?
Wonderfully! They're very nice. We're extremely close and do a lot of things together, but we're different enough that we still have our own lives as well. We're not completely glued together. I think the fact that we all voluntarily live under one roof says a lot about the strength of our relationship.
>What kind of emotional dynamics exist between co-wives, anyway? Like, do you work together for the good of the household? Compete with each other?
Of course we work together! Probably the best thing about having co-wives is not having to do all of the household chores yourself. It's so nice to not have to cook some nights, or to have a helper with the cleanup. Our husband's sexual appetite is ravenous, so it helps us handle that aspect of the marriage as well. We compete sometimes, as I mentioned above, but it's more for his enjoyment than catfight situations. We respect one another greatly, and even though we have somewhat different opinions and interests, we've never fought over it.
>Get your own little patch, parallel to the others?
I'm not sure what you mean by this.
>Gossip together about your mutual husband?
We talk about him sometimes, but I wouldn't really call it gossip. We do compare notes on what works well in bed with him, what foods he likes, etc. We've also agreed that our children should address the other co-wives as "Aunt X", rather than viewing them as another mom.
>Has a hierarchy formed?
Haha, yes, there's a bit of a hierarchy in some respects. My husband is white and he definitely favors his white wife the most. He married her second. He doesn't give her special treatment per se, but he very much wanted her to have the first child and so she has. My other co-wife (who is Chinese-American) and I are hoping that he'll have children with us soon as well. Right now, we're helping look after the baby and love doing so. All three of us love children.

Yes, he is very wealthy. His income mostly consists of investments, so he doesn't actually "go to work" every day, meaning he has more time to spend with us. He does have business trips (usually international) at least a few times a month, and will usually take just one of us with him so we can have some one-on-one time. I keep secretly hoping he'll surprise us one day and bring back a fourth wife from some place like Russia or Switzerland.

Being the first wife in a polygynous marriage is kind of my dream. I fantasise about helping my husband find, pick and marry the best possible girls for his next wives. I imagine the younger wives training themselves to please my husband's every sexual whim and coming to me, the more experienced wife, for advice on how to please him better.

I imagine cuddling on the couch with my husband after a long day, when one of the younger wives comes along, straddles him and starts to grind against his crotch. I keep warmly cuddling one of his arms as things proceed to impromptu cowgirl couch sex. Once they've both cum together and my husband is nice and relaxed, I gently remind her to clean him up with her mouth the way he likes. As she shyly does so, he turns to me and murmurs a casual "thanks".

I have one final recurring fantasy, this one a little strange. In it, my husband, myself and the other wives have all become old, too old for sex. But we're all still together, happily (if crotchet-ily) living together in companionship with many years of happy debauchery behind us and crowds of grandchildren from our many children being brought through to visit.

Late to this discussion here and just passing by since I only openned this board out of curiosity, but this might be an interesting antropological discussion.

> Why are so many Western women so viciously opposed to polygyny, even when all parties consent?

Historically, it's due to jewish-christian heritage. Christianity is strongly monogamous, these are the two most monogamous religions in human history, except for mormons, and this kind of marriage has been enforced ever since its spread in late roman empire. Not even kings and emperors in europe escaped this rule, while in china the emperor had many concubines and wives, and one of his main role was to provide children to keep the dinasty going, in Europe if the royal couple couldn't have offspring then their heritage would just die out and another close family would take the throne. This is one of the main reasons for why Europe was so full of succession wars while monarchies all over the world were comparably more stable.

As for our modern society, you can't overlook the economical side of a partnership, and the truth is that in the West it's already becoming too hard for a man to provide for one wife and children alone. You must be very healthy to provide for more than one family (though this is what happens in practice with many divorced men who marry again latter). Monogamous marriage in western society is one of the main factors for the distribution and accumulation of wealth among non-priviledged classes and the emergence of the middle class, it leveled the field in a way that no woman would suffer poverty for being a lesser wive and no man would behave YOLO for having no wife, both were stimulated to work in benefit of the financial stability of their union.

And the truth is that poligyny is historically associated with patriarchal power indeed. It might not be the particular case of your marriage, OP, but it certainly is the case of 99% of polygynic societies out there. The thing is that poligyny is typically the priviledge of a rulling class of men, while the lower classes remain unmarried and uncapable of having children. This rulling class concentrates the power, excluding both lower men and all women from power decisions, the very act of possessing many wives in these societies is typically a demonstration of status.

That seems to assume the man as the sole breadwinner in a polygynous situation and both partners working in a monogamous situation, which isn't a fair comparison. Wouldn't a modern polygynous household of a working man and multiple working women be more prosperous in total disposable income terms (plus the ability to perform income/time trade-off) than a monogamous marriage in which both spouses work?

> this kind of marriage has been enforced ever since its spread in late roman empire.

>Monogamous marriage in western society is one of the main factors for the distribution and accumulation of wealth among non-priviledged classes and the emergence of the middle class,

Romans practiced monogamy even in the Republic stage, which pre-dated the spread of Christianity. But even that aside, we'd expect the European middle class (which type of middle class?) to emerge and remain emerged once monogamy was enforced, correct? Then why didn't the middle class as we know it emerge until the 16th-17th century? No, monogamy didn't do that.

Also in practice, high-status Romans and later Europeans were socially monogamous but polygynous in mating. The maintenance of mistresses or concubines at a certain level of status was accepted, even mandatory for social standing.

>And the truth is that poligyny is historically associated with patriarchal power indeed. It might not be the particular case of your marriage, OP, but it certainly is the case of 99% of polygynic societies out there.

So, wait, are we saying that monogamous societies are somehow less patriarchal than polygynous ones? I thought most of Western European society throughout history was classed as being patriarchal? So *gamy can't be a factor, especially since you've argued that Western european society was monogamous for most of post-AD.

This might be a discussion, but it's not anthropological or interesting yet.

Assuming each woman would have the same number of children that they would have if they were in a monogamous relationship, the total outcome per member would still be considerably smaller.

Like say, 3 wives with 6 children vs 1 wive with 2. You'd have 4 income for 10 members vs 2 income for 4 members.

>Romans practiced monogamy even in the Republic stage

Monogamy has always been practiced in our species, but not as stong as in jewish-christian societies. Neither was reprovation of any form of poligamy, which was legally official and the very god's rule in the holy book. PLus, monogamy in JC societies is related to the formal prohibition of infanticide, something widely practiced by romans as well as many other socities. Monogamy in JC societies meant to be together indefinitely since this union must be the basis of a family that doesn't know how many children it'll have. In roman and other societies, on the other hand, marriage was constrained by other economical and power/status related circunstances, baby girls were killed if the father didn't feel like he would want to trade daughters for influence through marriage in the future, the child's role was pre-determined by the parent's (mostly the the father's) plans for how the family would affect his businesses and his political networking.

> Wouldn't a modern polygynous household of a working man and multiple working women be more prosperous in total disposable income terms

It seems you can't into basic economics and maths. Plus, what I said is simply what Hayek said about the role of nuclear families in the emergence of middle class in Europe, something very accepted by most specialists in how the middle class emerged in the west.

Plus, "modern poligyny" mostly consists of a situation where there's no hierarchy between wives, in this situation it's common that each wive will care first to provide for her children. So the common configuration fo many poligynyc families is that they are actually nuclear families where the father transits between them, each wife and their respective children set some barriers to where her family begins and the other ends, because they're not forced to obey hierarchy.

But the share of fixed expense and overhead per family member would also be lower, since e.g. cost of housing does not scale linearly with space (as anyone who's moved in with a significant other will attest). Wealth isn't a simple matter of $ per person, but rather the function gained.

>>1341

You've not addressed the substance of my questions, but instead widened the remit of your argument to dilute them. I'm not intentionally misinterpreting you - your argument(?) is murky at best and contradictory at worst. You place monogamy up as a primary factor in social developments that it was only an enabler of, then change your thrust to new factors when challenged on definition. (Oh, we're actually talking Judeo-Christian monogamy? It was about whether or not infanticide was allowed?) You can start by addressing the 1500-year gap between enforcement of monogamy in Europe and the rise of the middle class, and the 400-year gap between the nuclear family being common in e.g. parish England and the rise of the middle class.

To be clear: I'm not arguing that the agility and flexibility of the nuclear family unit was not a factor in the emergence of the middle class - but rather that monogamy isn't the same thing as a nuclear family, that the nuclear family was an enabling factor that must be weighed against significant technological and other factors rather than a causative one, and that this is largely irrelevant to the question at hand because…

Actually, you never even properly addressed OP's question either. She asked in effect, "why does my being okay with my husband having multiple wives cause a strongly hostile emotional reaction in Western women?". Holding forth about polygyny's suitability in modern society and its historical role in the emergence of the middle class doesn't answer that. Did you just decide to blow in because you saw an opportunity to lecture, or what?

The way I argued looked like saying that what led to the emergence of middle class was the same of what sustains it today. WHen I said it was "one of the major aspects" I was talking about what keeps it today, which is what Hayek argued. Hayek was a proselitizer of Libertarianism, and as it is usual of these thinkers, they try to justify moral costumes in terms of economy, and so he tried to demonstrate how monogamy was important in keeping individual accumulation of wealth, the defence of private property and so on. Since the nuclear family setting allowed for both men and women to seek in partnership what most men and women commonly desired, and also allowed them to save money and plan according to these same individual interests, whereas in former societies such as the Roman, an influential man would try to accumulate wealth basically for the sake of either trying to keep or expand his status and political power, where family and child raising was just one more factor in his business calculations, in the christian society that followed the parents would try to improve their situation as much as possible because they didn't know how big their families would end up being and also because the family itself was now seen as something that should be socially and legally respected, so property (as we understand it today), merit, and accumulation of wealth now had an institutionalized umbrela under which they could be cultivated, but this was nowhere enough to trigger the emergence of the middle class, societies were still rural, the concept of intelectual ownership of ideas was weak, the concept of individual human rights were weak, etc. And although this is mostly propaganda for individualism and libertarianism, the point still stands that the one-man-one-woman western family worked as a way to accumulate wealth and defend private property independently of heritage.

> You can start by addressing the 1500-year gap between enforcement of monogamy

Cultures don't change from one day to another, it took centuries until women would stop killing their children just because they didn't have the means to raise them and instead give them to abbeys and monasteries that latter would become the stereotypical catholic orphanages. Neither did christianity spread from one day to another through europe

>Oh, we're actually talking Judeo-Christian monogamy? It was about whether or not infanticide was allowed?

I tried to explain to you how there's more to marriage than simply social norms or love, and that there are different motives and this different kinds of monogamy, marriage in Roman society had a good deal of economical and social motivation to it, while in JC society marriage was idealized as God's rule, you cannot compare both.

>Actually, you never even properly addressed OP's question either.

And you've switched from addressing the question or subsequent arguments to implying I'm arguing out of petulance. I argued because your initial explanations were written self-contradictorily. I pointed out that you hadn't addressed OP's question because I wanted to know how the context you were outlining (eventually) related to the current context and people's reaction to it. The explanations you've (now) given could be useful towards answering that, but you haven't yet done so.

She (and I) want to know why such a hostile reaction bubbles to the surface almost immediately when it seems to make no sense for it to do so. OP was pissed off at what she saw as a double standard being applied to her marriage, despite it being "more successful" than those of the monogamous detractors.

If you're using the question to springboard into a demonstration of knowledge of historical context in general or to hold forth on an assessment of its suitability as a social institution in general without linking it back to the question actually asked, you're engaging in wankery. That's hardly a polemic idea.

I searched around for an answer to this but information is very thin on the ground.

I do know that in order to have additional wives, one must convince the authorities that one can adequately support them. That sounds like proof of income, which is probably a citizen or resident thing - tax returns and whatnot.

I wasn't able to find out if it's restricted only to Muslims either.

>If the Chinese-American was his first wife, have you ever talked to her about how she felt when he met, courted, and married the second? Did she go into the marriage knowing there would be co-wives in the future?

Oh yes, we've spoken at length about this. I'd rather not give too many dirty details, but simply put, my husband has a high volume of physical needs and his first wife could not adequately meet all of them. Neither intended to become polygamous; it just became a reality a few months into their marriage that they were not sexually compatible in terms of how much he needed it. She was actually the one to suggest he take a second wife, and he wound up meeting his future second wife online some time later. I asked her (the Chinese-American) once, before I became married as well, how she viewed her husband having romantic and sexual relationships with other women. She said that she didn't mind the sexual part as he has his needs, but that the romantic aspect bothered her at first, though she eventually got over it.

>Did her american upbringing pose a challenge?

Not at all! She was adopted from China as a baby and raised in a loving Christian household. She has wonderful values, and is very polite and considerate. We're good friends. One thing that has inhibited her though is the language hurdle. It seems to me that Americans have a hard time learning other languages - they tell me that this isn't something that is emphasized in school, so that might be why. She and our husband speak the least Malay (the predominant language in our home country), while his European wife (who speaks 4 other languages) has picked it up quite well.

I love this as well!! Though I wanted to be in the very situation I'm in now - with other, more experienced wives to go to. I'd kind of dreamed of being the fourth wife, but three isn't bad, and honestly I'd have settled for any slot.

>crowds of grandchildren from our many children being brought through to visit.

Oh, how I long for this as well!

I was counting out the number of children we could feasibly have before we got too old, but my husband thought that was silly and that I should just let fate take its course rather than actively trying for a certain number of children.

This is something that I enjoyed reading about, both in this thread and outside of it. Brunei has historical ties to Britain, so we wind up learning about its history, and all the wars due to intermarriages, and the insanely long…well, I forget its proper name in English, but the waiting list that basically all the royal families in Europe are on, showing what position in line they are for the British throne, though of course nearly none of them will ever come to it.

Oh wow, I didn't expect you to come back! This is a nice surprise.

"Patriarchy" is loosely used to mean "society in which men exclusively hold power" (power meaning right of determination over property, self, law, etc.). If you pin down someone who's studied it a bit more and is willing to put aside the androphobia much of the literature is suffused with, they'll tell you that "patriarchy" is "society in which fathers hold power" - that is, societies which centralise power and property into the hands of older men as a way of suppressing competition for the resources the older men have accumulated. (This is what the post you comment is talking about: Older, resource-rich men monopolising mating opportunities to the detriment of a pool of frustrated younger men who don't get killed off in regular tribal war any more.)

In modern use, the term is used to designate a society in which all women and young men are cruelly oppressed because social thinking over the last seven decades or so has systematically erased any positive aspects of masculinity (protection, strength, stoicism, ambition, etc.) while emphasising its dark side (thuggery, robbery, rape, cruel violence, etc.). It's designed to conjure up images of past social structures in which women did not have any power of self-determination or self-actualisation. (Pic related for the kind of bullshit that's infected the thinking.)

The reason you do not necessarily associate it with negative aspects is that your experience of patriarchal society might be one where men are handed power and then expected to use it responsibly for the good of those under them, along with structures of custom and tradition that keeps them in line. The inverse result is when a terrible man with no masculine virtue that should not be given power being given power anyway, simply because he's the ranking male.

Anyway, the important part is:

>Shouldn't cuckqueans like this?

I think the issue is choice. In the kind of oppressive system "patriarchy" is supposed to connote, there's no choice as to whether the ranking male is obeyed or not. Nobody wants to submit to a terrible husband who's not capable of exercising his dominance and power responsibly, right? I sure as fuck don't. Fortunately, that isn't a problem I have to deal with.

He's from the southeastern U.S. originally, which is where we are now.

>Can any couple move to Brunei and have multiple wives?

Almost; it is a religious thing. You should be of a religion that supports polygamy, preferably any sect of Islam or Christianity. You'll find life easier here if that is the case.

>If I move myself and my two girls there, could I marry both and pick up 2 more if I chose or is it a citizen thing?

I'd recommend being at least religiously married to them beforehand; get a priest or some other holy man to conduct a formal ceremony and give you some kind of proof that it occurred. You needn't be legally married, of course. You can get married to additional women after immigrating, assuming we let you in and approve you for residency. Citizenship isn't like in America and other Western countries; there are people that were born here and have lived here their entire lives, and are now elderly, and are not citizens. Many want to be, but just aren't. I'm a citizen, but my husband isn't, and likely won't be for years (at least) due to his lack of command of Malay. You must be able to prove fluency in our language, both written and spoken, in order to become a citizen, in addition to the other requirements.

On the bright side, if you are American, you'll be streamlined through basically every step. I'm not entirely certain as to why this is, but we give preferential treatment to American tourists, immigrants, and businesses. There's a long list of countries we favor (including the UK), but our government is just so much more generous with Americans. An American visa to visit here is valid for 3 times as long as anyone else's, for example.

It also becomes easier to live here permanently if you a) secure employment before attempting to move, or b) are independently wealthy already and invest in our country's economy. My husband was option B; few countries will turn away someone willing to invest in/start businesses, and Brunei is no exception. Option A works out especially well for medical specialists; we have a wonderful healthcare system, but we lack in-country doctors for more obscure situations, and anyone with these severe ailments is sent off to Europe or America for treatment.

(Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer and you should expect some additional surprises somewhere in the immigration process that I have not accounted for.)

I mostly answered this already, but I wanted to add that we don't have any income taxes here. Again, make sure you have secured a job before coming! There are English-language websites that you can use to search for them. We have no patience for unemployed bums.

Usually when people say things like this, they mean a society where women had limited opportunity for direct control in politics, property management, or the like.

This gripe usually betrays their ignorance of actual history. For instance, in Medieval Europe, women dominated the beer- and bread-making industries. Domination of these industries was so complete that they essentially acted like miniature cartels, holding their industries hostage if the bosses got upset at something.

In either Elizabethan or Victorian England (I forget which), taxation was based on household income, not on individual income. This meant that a man could simply yield his entire income over to the crown while his wife used her tax-exempt status to grow her own business enterprise.

In ancient Rome, a woman's property might legally revert to her nearest male relative, but if she had none, she got to keep her property. This included any direct interests and management thereof. In Athens during the same period, a woman might present a dowry to her husband, but the dowry reverted to her upon a divorce.

Arranged marriages were almost never as awful as you hear about in popular literature. Very rarely would a woman be expected to marry a man she had never met, and almost never to a man she absolutely couldn't stand. This would be for obvious reasons; convincing someone to spend the rest of their lives with someone they can't stand is going to be harder than it's worth.

Many times, the "arranged" part of the arranged marriage was just a formality: the man and woman honestly liked each other, and the parents simply hashed out the politics.

Some cultures didn't even have an understanding of fidelity! In pre-Shogunate Japan, it was almost expected for both husbands and wives to have affairs.

I could go on, but I won't. I will say it's fascinating that for a group that obviously subscribes to cultural relativism, feminists forget all about tolerance and acceptance when it comes to how other cultures expected women to behave.

Thank you! Lately, I have been helping his first wife, the Chinese-American one, around the house with various tasks - she is pregnant! She is expecting in January. She is surprisingly mobile for a pregnant woman, especially one so small.

Also, he and his white wife have been talking a lot with this cute waitress that we met in Poland, so we may be getting another co-wife! She is the first well-endowed woman that he has taken a serious interest in (I keep suggesting women like that, the top-heavy ones, but he usually declines to pursue them), and she has a desire for a large family herself. The only downside to her is that she is so unintelligent! She can only talk about movies, celebrities, and pop culture, and knows nothing about history, geography, or literature. On the other hand, it really appeals to me that my husband might start making babies with her; I love the idea of him forsaking me for a girl like her!

It reminds me of how Orwell described "doublethink"; I want to be fulfilled as a woman and have children with my husband, yet I simultaneously want the humiliation of being denied while he brings beautiful, all-white children into the world with his other wives. Does anyone else experience something like this?

>It's called a Line of Succession.

My cuckqueaning kink has expanded into curiosity about polygyny and, because I am a huge nerd who can't helpn but make things, I'm hoping to produce a work examining polygyny from all the angles I can with the objective of producing a "user's guide" for it in the modern world covering aspects legal, cultural, emotional, sexual, et cetera.

I got so fucking turned on as soon as I heard that. Then after a bit it went:

OP, did your husband have to convert to Islam? (Or volantarily did so?) Did his other wives? You mention that it's necessary for polygynous marriage members to be part of a religion which officially sanctions polygyny, but AFAIK no mainstream branch of Christianity or any other religion I can think of does so.

I can see maybe getting around this by belonging to sects that either do not forbid or who allow polygyny, but I assume there's some kind of standard applied as to what is and is not considered a religion. How do the authorities determine whether a person's religion is compatible with polygyny?

Also, I find it very sweet that you all live under one roof. From what I've read, that's not very common - it's more usual for a husband to split his time equally between wives in separate dwellings. How did it come about that you all decided to cohabitate? Do you know of any other families that do this? What do the neighbors think?

I've not heard of anything in the bible (or non-biblical Jewish/Christian texts ones that were excluded when they put the bible together) that is specifically anti-polygynous. And there's certainly examples of men with multiple wives in these texts, particularly the older ones.

Which is not surprising. Judaism is an old religion and for most of human history (or pre-history, as it were), polygyny has been the norm. It only really developed with the rise of civilization, meaning it's probably less than 10k years old, out of around 200k years of what we consider to be human existence.

If you look at other primates, a polgynous harem system is almost universal. In contrast, human families in most societies more closely resemble wolf packs than chimpanzee troops. It's been suggested we adapted a lot of our social behavior from our dogs, but that's not really the sort of thing you can prove.

So monogamy is still new, relatively speaking. Which might explain why we're frequently kind of shit at it, as a species. We're still in sort of a transitional phase.

Though it bears mentioning that humanity has had two different (but not entirely separate, either) systems that we call 'monogamy'. Unfortunately, we don't have words to properly differentiate them, at least in English.

Monogamy, conceptually, is something of a social contract. The distinction lies in who that contract is between. We think of modern monogamy as a contract between men and women - that is to say, you don't want your partner to fuck anyone else, so you agree not to fuck other people yourself.

But for most of human history wherein monogamy has existed, it's been a contract between men. Unrestricted polygyny is a destabilizing factor for a structured society. It leaves men in perpetual competition with one another and hinders cooperation. This form of 'monogamy' was not about restricting who a man could fuck, but about who he could claim as his own. He could be with other women, but as far as society was concerned, only the one counted. It was only a crime for other men to fuck that one woman he claimed and only children with her really counted. This meant that once married, he was out of competition with other men, allowing more cooperation between adult males. That cooperation is the fabric of society.

Similar to this form of monogamy is restricted polygyny, that is to say, multiple wives are allowed, but there is a hard numerical limit on how many you can have. This is what you're seeing in most of these old Hebrew texts, and indeed in most societies that have practiced any sort of polygyny. It serves the same purpose as historical monogamy. If you want to see unrestricted polygyny, look at some of the fundamentalist mormon cults. They're a fucking mess (though not just for this reason).

The more organized a society is, the more likely it'll have some form of historical monogamy or restricted polygyny, and the more free a society, the more likely it will practice modern monogamy. It has less to do with religion and more to do with having a functioning society.

There *have* been examples of Christian societies that have practiced restricted polygyny. For example, during the Frankish Merovingian dynasty (early medieval), a man was allowed to have two wives. This changed when the Carolingian dynasty took over, but so far as I know it was their change, not something imposed by the church.

If one is looking for room to justify some sort of polygyny in practice while being Christian, I don't think the religion is really against it so much as the customs of the places that practice it are.

The problem is if you want it to be legally or religiously official in any way. Of all the countries that have legal polygamy, I wouldn't want to live in any of them. Besides, as others have mentioned, they're likely to have their own religious rules about it. So living in a place where the government recognizes all your wives is going to be a problem. If you just mean religiously, as in some religious institution recognizes your marriage, even if the government does not, that's going to be hard, too. Aside from the mormon cults, I don't know of any Christian groups that recognize it today. Unless you want to start your own denomination. So you run into the situation of what you feel constitutes 'wedlock'. Christian texts may not talk much about the acceptance of polygyny, but the whole should-be-married thing is a bit more clear. It all depends on how much is about simple faith versus institution.

Probably monogamy in the end triumphs as civilizational system because if followed adequately it provides stronger civilizational body that outcompetes and erases the polygenous one.

Also drills extra mental discipline that later is reflected on military performance should military showdown come to it.

See monogamy as a contract between men, it means more tribes cooperating, the other tribes keep quarreling for dominance. Guess which one has higher chances of imposing itself and writing history.

It's also worth noting that even in strictly monogamous societies, the practice of keeping mistresses stayed around. This meant that a women kept as a mistress effectively acted as a second or third wife to the man who kept her, but received no recognition or protection afforded to a wife by law or custom.

Writers from polygynous cultures frequently point this out and criticise it as hypocritical and a raw deal for the mistress. The phrase African writers use is "white man's polygyny" and Muslim writers refer to "polygyny Kaffir-style". I also know that in Thai culture, a "major" wife is recognised and heads over several possible "minor" wives.

As you say, we're in a transitional phase where the collective advantages afforded by monogamy are giving a competitive advantage at a societal level, but these sorts of memetic-to-genetic evolutionary transitions take tens of thousands of years to have an effect at the genetic level, so we're still working it out. Only a long stretch of time will tell.

>even in more monogamous contexts it is often allowed for victorious soldiers to fuck and sometimes take enslaved women of other tribes even if married already.

Interestingly, this hybrid structure seems to provide a boost to a young and aggressive society that makes its gains through conquest.

This is exactly what the Romans - who were a strictly monogamous society - did. Slaves bought or conquered were property and therefore fucking one's own slave was not a violation of marriage vows. (Of course, if you fucked your slaves too much and it got in the way of keeping your shit together you were socially scorned because the Romans valued maintaining strict control over urges and maintaining a will to power.) So that was a kind of sexual polygyny, albeit without social or legal recognition.

Islam was also very big on encouraging men to fight and expand by encouraging sexual use of slaves. Society is instructed to help find men find their first wives (including discounts on dowries, social incentives to families, etc.) so that the fabric is maintained but any wife after the first is far more "expensive". But there's a safety catch: Almost every reference to sexual rules in the Qu'ran gives the green light to sex with wives and what translators euphemistically render as "what your right hand possesses" - your slaves. So a man is sexually incentivised to help Islam spread through conquest and Islam in turn tries to maintain an element of monogamy's social fabric by "discounting" first wives.

Mistresses served in a sexual role, but the fact that she did not have the same position as the wife is sort of the point. A man may have a mistress, but he doesn't 'own' a mistress in the same way that a wife belongs to him (either figuratively or literally, depending on the time period).

As a result, she did not have the same obligations that a wife would. While a man may be angry that his mistress decides to fuck someone else, society does not have his back on that. She wasn't his to claim to begin with, thus there is no actual rule broken.

If society afforded the mistress the same protections and obligations that a wife had, a man could claim as many women as would have him, and it brings us back to the stupid endless competition caveman shit that monogamy was invented to put a stop to.

In some cases people might interpret it as unfair for mistresses to be in a sort of second-class like that, but this utterly denies their agency as human beings. And indeed, a mistress would have more freedom than a married woman would have. She could have married someone, but chose to be a hanger-on instead. The reasons for this could vary, from wanting the aforementioned freedom, to affection for the man, to wanting to place herself higher in the social system - since a higher placed man may take a woman as a mistress that he would not consider as a wife, granting a social mobility that lower class men did not have.

And this has actually had net advantages for some women, historically. Classical Greece had situations wherein prostitutes were afforded certain social rights that married women would be denied. Almost like a jester's privilege, since nobody owned them, what they did was not considered to matter in the same way that it would for a wife.

It might sometimes be a 'raw deal' for the mistress, but it's something that they know they're getting into and it has its advantages. In contrast, it's always detrimental to most men and by extension to the function of society in general.

To be clear, I don't agree with the writers referred to before - they're using the mistress comparison in a rhetorical way to segue into an explanation of their own polygynous systems rather than to deeply compare the mechanisms of either.

My point was more that even in societies nominally arranged around strictly monogamous lines, powerful men still find a way to practice sexual and emotional polygyny - often with the willing co-operation of the women on the side. In some periods of history (e.g. late middle-ages France) and even now (e.g. China) this sort of thing was practiced so semi-openly that a man's mistresses were/are a status symbol, deliberately held out as such.

Interesting discussion. Why hasn't anybody said anything about concubines? They are different than a mistress and I believe that some of this discussion is about them rather than mistresses.

Well, concubine is a term without a real strict meaning. In *can* mean the same thing as mistress.

A concubine is generally a man's not-wife, or at least not his 'primary' wife, if he's in a polygamist society.

'Concubine' is commonly used to describe a woman that a man has a personal and sexual relationship with, which he is not able to marry for legal or social reasons. This can be because he's already married and in a monogamist society, but it can also be for other reasons - a man does not have to be married to have a concubine.

It could be, for example, because of social class. If a nobleman has a romantic relationship with a commoner, he can't really marry her, either because it isn't allowed or because it would be detrimental to himself and his family to do so. So that might be considered a concubine.

It could also describe women who are slaves kept for their owner's sexual needs. In this case, he owns them, but in a different capacity than a wife. I don't think prostitutes would count (not that all prostitutes are necessarily slaves, but it is common, even today), because even though they might be owned, they serve primarily to fulfill the owner's financial interests, not his sexual ones.

It can be used to describe a legal wife in a polygamist system, but it always describes a 'lesser' wife in some manner of legal definition or pecking order, one that lacks some sort of rights or respect that the main wife enjoys. This could mean that her children are not considered legal heirs to their father in the same way that the main wife's children are, or it could be something as simple as not being socially recognized and respected in the same way as the main wife.

>Historically, it's due to jewish-christian heritage. Christianity is strongly monogamous, these are the two most monogamous religions in human history, except for mormons, and this kind of marriage has been enforced ever since its spread in late roman empire.

As has been discussed elsewhere on this board though, that isn't based on anything actually in the Bible, which endorses polygyny and never condemns it.

It's actually a simple process of natural selection. The ratio of men to women is 1:1,1 or thereabout, which pretty much means that for every man there is a woman. Now, if you introduce polygamy you really start to mess up the social fabric of a given nation/culture. This is because older, richer and better established men snag up all the women, leaving those that "came late" with nothing, and if you live in a society that tells men they are expected to marry and establish a family (and that's pretty much every society on the planet) but take away their ability to do so, this will lead to stress on their part, which will sooner or later transfer into destructive behavior.

That being said, even in the West polygny is tacitly accepted for rich men that usually have a wife and a few mistresses. This is usually tolerated because there's not all that many rich men that can afford such a setup so they are not impacting the rate of available mates too much.

Now, polygny was more prevalent in the past because it is a great way to motivate men to go conquer shit. If you have a bunch of restless young men you can very easily turn them into highly motivated soldiers with promise of conquering some other country and stealing all their women. Even better, warfare will ensure many of these young men will die, thus relieving pressure on society and having less men that need to be given their "reward". This is all fine and dandy so long as you have clay to conquer and the momentum to do so, but once you have expanded as much as possible and there are no more outsiders to take women from is when problems start to occur.

I stipulate that a large reason why most Middle Easter countries are so unstable is that they haven't eliminated polygny out of their culture. You'll note that all major world powers, past and present, or at least those that tended to last longer than a century, phased out polygny in favor of monogamy, simply because monogamy ensures a far more stable society and a loyal pool of men that will work diligently and defend the borders because they have a stake in the society (in the form of a wife and children) or a motivator in the form of a promise they will get a wife if they work hard enough.

>I will say it's fascinating that for a group that obviously subscribes to cultural relativism, feminists forget all about tolerance and acceptance when it comes to how other cultures expected women to behave.

That's because you take Marxists such as them at face value, which is a mistake. Feminists hate men, and specifically, they hate white, heterosexual men (and now faggots too). Their only goal in life is making sure white men are as miserable as possible. I'm not even exaggerating, this is basically why they come across as hypocrites when they shit on Western men for one thing while simultaneously turning a blind eye to what Muslim men get up to.

Men fight in wars. Many die.

Men do dangerous work. Many die.

Both lead to bad health. Many die early.

This leads to a surplus of women for there are no men to wed them in a monogamous society unless they become mistresses.

You do have an argument assuming a peaceful world and an egalitarian work load between the sexes.

You clearly haven't done any research on these cultures that allow polygyny. It was something that was allowed, not a widespread practice. It was already hard enough being responsible for one wife, imagine having ten?

I am currently living in a GCC Arab country that allows polygyny and most of the men are still monogamous because they simply don't want to have many wives, even though they aren't poor. These countries are more stable and prosperous than some European countries that only permit monogamy. What's more, for some reason the women here are usually the ones who are left unmarried, not the men, maybe this is due to a lot men getting married to immigrants.

The further in history you go the less this is true. Also, you only saw massive losses in battle during antiquity and past the Middle Ages. Feudal societies could never hope to scrape together armies numbering tens of thousand (10,000 was already pushing it even for the most powerful kingdoms) and conflict was usually avoided if possible because armies were expensive. By the time you go back to battles with actually massive casualties you already have population numbers to sustain them. There's a reason we didn't go back to polygny despite Europe bleeding itself dry throughout the whole of the 19th and 20th century.

Now you're just being retarded. If you're talking about the shitholes on the Arabian peninsula they are only "stable" because the government is beyond draconian, the ruling families bribe any and all radicals to keep quiet and also bribe the populace not to start shit. Once the oil money runs dry they'll descend into the same savagery they came from. We are talking about populations with a nigger tier average IQ.

Personally, I always thought of a concubine as something distinct from a wife or a mistress. My idea of polygyny has always been something along the lines of a primary wife at the top, with secondary wives in the middle, and concubines at the bottom, along with maybe one or more mistresses existing outside the official hierarchy.

Especially that one muslim lady up there. Her stories were really endearing and the way she speaks about her husband and co-wives was cute.

Makes me wish to find multiple wives too but that's really unheard of here where I live, and finding women into it would be really hard.
