Re: Sister Wives
I'm definitely intrigued so I will be watching it; however, I thought Polygamy was illegal in the US...how is he married to all of them??

guess we will find out, but usually the first one is legally the wife and the others are "figurative or spiritual" wives (not legally married but view each other as married)

Re: Sister Wives
I don't know how they do it and now they are adding another woman and her kids to the family? I just find this whole thing strange but to each its own.

Re: Sister Wives
Trying to keep ONE wife happy is hard enough, why would he want to add more to that equation!  
Maybe he figures that with wife #1, he's ALWAYS wrong already, so he can't be MORE wrong with more wives....

Re: Sister Wives
I really don't mean this to start any sort of drama, but the show concept honestly bothers me. You never see a female polygamist, only men. I feel like it's incredibly degrading to women, they seem more like cattle than wives. I'm sure a lot of you have seen the promo for it; I saw it too, and some things that the women say just seem so off to me. Everyone's entitled to their own opinions though, so more power to those who watch and enjoy the show!

Re: Sister Wives
I went into it thinking they were actually sisters,  I did find it very bizarre, although if it's the norm around those parts who am I to judge. A few of the kids seemed aprehensive when told their dad was "courting" another woman. I think I'd watch it again, it's such a foreign concept to me.

Re: Sister Wives
What I don't get is how he has time to even "court" another woman when he has already 3 wives and 13 kids that he splits his time between...

Re: Sister Wives
I caught some of it...I can't believe the ego this guy has or that these women buy into this. And the one wife thinks it's an awesome idea in case she ever died!!!

Re: Sister Wives
Darn! I forgot this was on. I didn't watch.
Do you think these ladies were open to the idea before they met him? Or are they so in love with THIS guy that they would do anything for him..!?

Agree 100%
And its disgusting that many marry girls who are half their age or sometimes still in their teens

If I remember correctly. The 1st wife, her father was a polygamist, so I guess to her its just normal.

The third wife also grew up in a polygamist family, and she said she specifically wanted to be a third wife.
While I find the concept interesting, this guy rubs me the wrong way.

Re: Sister Wives
Out of his 4 wives 3 grew up this way.
Ironically he did not grow up this way. He was introduced really to it as a way of life by the father of his #1 wife.
I thought I would find it sick the way they "share" but really I didnt. They all seem so happy with the situation, the kids seem pretty well adjusted and really everyone seems pretty "normal" at least in the first show.

I agree too. I also don't understand how the "wives" can be ok with him being intimate with one wife one night and then with them the next night. It just grosses me out. I don't think its really about jealousy so much as it has to do with his you know what being in someone else the night before. I don't know....just weird to me but to each their own.
