Why Do Men Take Second Wives?

Some men take second wives or third wives or keep a harem. If the women does not submit to being the second or third wives, then there is really no question about this issue.

Are today's modern and liberated women any different from their peers of eon's ago? Have today's educated and emancipated women able to break away from their traditionalist thinking's ?

Most of today's women are more independent minded, ambitious and career oriented and some may even make more than the men. This has lead to a dire situation where there are few compatible men as women would rather marry upwards or prefer those on the same level as them. .Women of today are getting married later or not getting married at all  because of the present situation.

It may not be a bad preposition to be the second wife or third as long as their needs are well taken care off .They live peacefully and are happy to be in that situation. There are of course two sides of this issue.

What is the point of being the only wife when she does not enjoy what she is entitled to under a marriage ? One man one wife concept may deem fair but the world does not evolve that way.

Many men and women are tempted to cheat while being married and this is the cause of the high divorce rate.Rather than cheat on the sideline, it would be better to make it legitimate and solve all those heartaches and problems of a cheating spouse.

It is a culture or religion in some societies to have several wives . In the olden times , the women from those poor families offered their daughters in marriage to those rich men as they could not afford to feed them and it was the only way for their daughters to escape from poverty and enjoy a fruitful and blessed life. Some of them became servants to those rich people who later married them .

Some people cannot even afford to marry  but those who are rich and powerful have many wives , mistresses ,lovers and whatnots.

 As long as they are happy  , what is there to prevent the men from marrying more than one wife and women being the other wives. What if there are more women than men?
