ONE BIG FAMILY

Read this astonishing story in today's nstonline about a 49 year Kuala Terengganu grandfather with 3 wives who is about to marry another woman half is age. The ages of his current three wives range from 25 to 46.

According to the news report he has fathered 25 children ranging in age from 4 months to 25 years with his three wives.

Can't figure out why a man wants to complicate his life by marrying so many women and why a woman might want to share his man with other women. Posing together in the picture they all look so happy and at ease in one another's company.

On the other hand who am I to pass smug judgements on others? In some cultures polygamy is a completely acceptable practice so long as the man can provide adequately for all his women.

At the very least these women are legal wives in the eyes of the law of the society that they belong to and they can display their affections for each other openly without suffering from the public disdain of contemporary society. In contrast, the poor mistresses or kept women of some wealthy men who have no legal and social status and have to hide their illicit relationship from society really got the worst deal.

If they are so really delighted with this kind of arrangement bless them all!!!

Wishing them good health, joy and long life.
