Sister Wife is a 2000 documentary that follows the Hebrew Israelites, an African American community that immigrated to Israel and practices polygamy. The men can have up to seven wives. The film follows a couple that’s been married for 21 years as they decide to take on another wife.
Firstly, I am a believer in the Bible and the Torah. And Torah says that a man cannot lay with another man’s wife — that is adultery.
Now, mind you, polyandry does indeed occur in our human world. But it is RARE, unlike polygyny, which is openly practiced in 2/3rds of the world (and is covertly practiced in the Western World, sometimes honestly and other times in illicit forms, in a negative manner, like a man cheating on his wife, or having multiple baby mamas, or serial monogamy…) . It often occurs when there is a shortage of women, and two brothers agree to share a woman. OR, if it is somehow proven that the man is unable to give the woman children, he will bring in his brother.
But it is very uncommon.
I believe biologically we are not wired for polyandry —
- Women typically can only get pregnant by one man at a time.Meanwhile, a man can get more than one woman pregnant at the same time.
- By the age of 55, a woman’s ability to have children is pretty much gone. Men can make babies up into their 70s.
- A woman’s libido, on average, is less than a man’s.
- The rate of women emotionally, physically, intellectually NEEDING a relationship with more than one person of the opposite sex (to the point where they will cheat, betray their current relationship to be with another person) is, on average, less than a man’s.
So at that point, it’s just a matter of nature. *shrugs*
I dont push my views on people, typically people push their views on me. But I wanted you all to know that you wont ever see me supporting polyandry. You can DO what you WANT.
Because I’m gonna do what I want…
lol
SHALOM
Someone asked me that. So I decided to answer lol. Only took a sec.
Laila tov!
A khemetic sister. I “know” her, inasmuch as I know anyone online lol. I don’t know why I have not posted her videos on here before.
Speaking on the legalization of polygyny — which I have talked about before on here, but under a different title.
MeekaJael and Vauno are youtubers who typically gear their videos towards natural hair care for women of color (called the Real Queens Hair Regimen). They are Hebrew, but are not Hebrew Israelite, and, like us, are not affiliated with any Hebrew church, assembly, fellowship, or camp. They are just seekers of The Most High God.
That being said — they’ve made a Polygamy series!!! For Our Enjoyment!!!
Here:
I personally MISSED THIS?
I didn’t even see this on the radar?
But even if it’s just this video, I’m glad I saw it. I loved every minute of it, I loved the older family that’s been together 30+ years and how they’re doing well and they’re HAPPY and NORMAL, I loved seeing the spokesperson for the polygamy advocacy group… LOVED IT.
AWESOME.
Enjoy!!!
Okay so out of support I have been tuning in to the Sister Wives show on TLC. The Brown family seems like an okay bunch and I am happy that they are showing a modern side to polygyny, even tho they are Fundamental LDSers. I am glad we are not watching Warren Jeffs and his bunch because all of that makes it weird with the someone else choosing your spouses and sometimes minor females being married.
I don’t hate the FLDS (even tho they believe black people are black because they are evil and wicked and, according to The Book of Mormon, we’ll get lighter if we become righteous *HUGE eye roll on the racism*). I am always interested in a level of communal living for people who believe the same thing as each other. SOMETIMES I think such a life would be nice for myself. But I don’t know I don’t like a bunch of people being in my business that I am not closely related to in some way. We would have to be BEST friends lol, like my long time best friends, I think. In order for it to work.
Anyway, I am sorry they are being investigated by the police. I Really hope support for polygyny as a legal marital option comes on the radar because of it. I hope those that believe in polygyny/polygamy come out of the woodworks and start, like, storming DC lol. We’re Here, We’re Plyg, Get Used To It kind of thing rofl.
To be persecuted for being honest with The Word of The Most High (honest in the sense of “I love this other woman just as much as my current wife and I want to be with her and I am unable to stop this feeling. So instead of betraying the covenant I have with my current wife, I will marry this woman as well to curb the sinfulness of deceit…I also will not engage in fornication with this woman and make her to be a harlot so I will marry her…”) is just absolutely horrible. This is why I feel the government has no right to tell people who to marry. EVER. Perhaps some stipulations should be in order, but it’s like that old saying “What ‘God’ has put together let no man turn asunder” or something like that.
How you gonna stop them? Tell them no?? They’re gonna be together just give them the dammed licenses. Put all wives on the books as his wife. Even homosexuals — you think saying no to gay marriage is going to keep them away from each other? NO.
Remember when interracial dating amongst blacks and whites was ILLEGAL? DID THAT KEEP PEOPLE AWAY FROM ONE ANOTHER?? NO. AND IT NEVER WILL. SO THE GOVERNMENT JUST NEEDS TO STEP BACK BECAUSE THEY’RE NEVER GOING TO ACTUALLY BE ABLE TO KEEP PEOPLE FROM ONE ANOTHER. Ever.
It’s simply not their jurisdiction, altho they try to make it so. It’s not their authority.
If they want to do something, make regulations. A family with two spouses continues to get the tax break. A family with more than 4 spouses is taxed. (I mean if you MUST, you know?) A family with more than 3 spouses is ineligible for welfare. All spouses must be legal age of consent. A family with two spouses pays the minimum “family” rate for health insurance. A family with more than two spouses must pay X amount more per added spouse on health insurance.
Things like that.
It’s do-able!
Men have been caring for wives and baby mamas and mistresses and all their children for years. You think it’s going to be THAT hard?
I think part of it is some level of jealousy. Because some men are like “Not every man is going to get more than one wife.” And it’s like perhaps NOT EVERY MAN NEEDS OR DESERVES MORE THAN ONE WIFE!
You don’t know my ex boyfriend (WOW from like 9 years ago lol) but if you knew him you’d say he wasn’t worthy of EVEN one because he’s so deadbeat. He doesn’t like to work, he’s lazy, he doesn’t know how to be a man and stay out of legal trouble his decision making process is horrible, SOME woman SOMEWHERE had to tell him what to do and sometimes he didnt’ WANT to do it anyway so he’d just muck it up.
He is a child in his mind (because only children are run by women and if a man is being run by his woman he is nothing but a child) and he doesn’t even KNOW it.
Some men though, are just weak and unable. NOT ALL, tho.
I think if we legalized polygamy only like 12% of the population would become polygynous, either by acknowledging and making honest women of people’s 4 baby-mama’s, and acts like that. Some women don’t even realize how naturally hard-wired they already ARE for polygyny — being aware of their husband’s mistress and yet not saying anything and not REALLY having a problem with it.
We’ve been PROGRAMMED to consider monogamy as the ONLY way. What about all those people that are “serial-monogamists”, divorcing and remarrying constantly? Poor people. perhaps they realize that they loved each of their spouses but could not figure out a way to be honest and keep everyone together. So they were honest and made the choice to divorce instead.
There are alot of doors that I feel will be opened because of this show. I pray it’s mostly positive backlash. I pray that a change is going to come — even tho really I think it’s like 10 to 20 years away, really.
ALRIGHT time to get on with my day! Just wanted to say that because I realized I have yet to address the show (as if I’m even posting frequent enough for people to wonder about my view.)
Boker Tov!
These people are SO hilariously funny!!Can’t wait for the next webisodes.
Shalom!
I created two new videos that revolve around jealousy and the poly mindset.
The first one is
And the second upload is this one (with my face on it lol)
I’m kind of frustrated right now. This society would accept me if I were a lesbian. They would accept me if I was a swinger. They would accept me cheating on my husband, or my husband cheating on me.
My husband is like “I don’t want the kids to get picked on.” How many kids these days are coming from households where they have just “two mommies” or “two daddies”??
And you know that, if you see a family like that at your child’s school, you’d better not say NOTHING. “Oh that’s her partner”. Yeah.
But when a man makes a commitment to two women, to be faithful to them both –
And when they are friends and sisterly toward one another –
Oh no, that’s wickedness. The kids need to be taken away, THAT family needs to be investigated!!
*silence*
This society is sick.
The Potential – I like her. Really, I do. She’s smart, she’s attractive (I don’t like to hang out with ugly girls lol. Shallow, maybe but it’s at least the honest truth! I’m not perfect!). She is able to debate with as much strength as we debate. She is reading/has read a ton of books. I really think she has a lot of value and a lot of skills that could be brought to the family.
I know I didn’t feel any kind of way when they were on the phone. Will I feel some kind of way when she visits? Or if he visits her? When they go out? If they kiss? If they fall in love? If they have sex with each other while I’m in the other room?
I don’t know. We have all said it before: we are taking it ONE DAY AT A TIME. We are TAKING IT SLOW.
I don’t know WHAT I’ll feel. Let’s be honest; when I was of the world I shared men before, I’ve been the other woman, I’ve been the booty call, I’ve been cheated on, I’ve been in the “we’re all friends so I can do him and you can do him and we’ll just all be friends” thing. I have never really felt anything against a woman who was involved with a man I was involved with. (not even the cheated on situation; whenever I found out, I was always cordial with ole girl) Why? I don’t know. Maybe it’s because I’m comfortable in myself. I know I’m attractive. I know the brothers are always looking at me. But I think I find comfort in knowing my place in the man’s life. When I KNOW that whatever our relationship is, is what it is, I’m cool. I am NOT cool when I think the relationship is one way but come to find out it’s a totally different way.
Examples – with B.J. (how many of you know BJ?? How many of you have “known” BJ? Hmm?? More than a few of my “Friends” have known him lol) we were all friends and it was cool. When I got cheated on (Merrison, Malcolm), I spoke to the ladies and we were actually quite friendly (still friends with one… you know who you are, sister-girl). When I was the “other” woman, I didn’t necessarily do it to hurt anyone. I just wanted what I wanted…and was pretty childish about it, trust that I know it. When it comes to covert relationships like that the “other” woman typically has no loyalty to The Universal Sisterhood of Women… I know that now, and I am truly sorry for the times where I was that woman…
So I feel that I’ll be cool, even in a situation where I am sharing a man at this day in age. I have always DONE ME, whatever that was; I have never cared what people think about who I’m doing, what I’m doing, or how I’m doing it. I have two words for the haters F—Yall. If anything I do with MY life makes you h8 me or not want to be around me, you were NEVER my friend to begin with so what does it matter? F—Yall. Forreal lol. *Don’t make me put on the dress lol*
I’ve let you be gay I’ve let you be a hoe about it I’ve let you cheat in your lives and while I *may* say my say that doesn’t ever mean I have foresook you as a friend. I DON’T HAVE HATE IN ME. I love you however you are. That is ALL I expect in return from any of you knuckleheads.
But – if that’s too much –
Thou knowest what thou canst do.
KICK ROX lol.
