Is polygamy dangerous? Does it create harm for the females psychologically?

Twice · F
IDK. depends who's the husband and who are the females.
Ladyofemotions · 31-35, F
@Twice Well, true. And if they are consenting females
SW-User
Depends. Some women are forced into it. If everyone involved is a freely consenting adult, I think it's a great option.

@SW-User I thins so too. Being tricked into it can cause psychological harm, especially to a woman raised in a monogamous household
MasterLee · 56-60, M
Of course not
Ladyofemotions · 31-35, F
@MasterLee And why is that?
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@Ladyofemotions been in it for all my life and the only poly that is as you suggest is when religion is applied to it.

its only dangerous if one party abuses it. It can harm anyone that doesnt fully believe or can't handle that life.
SW-User
Which wife does he really love more?
Ladyofemotions · 31-35, F
@MasterLee Exactly, there are those questions.

@SW-User Beware of articles written by the "scientists" of today. Ass, elbow; they're unclear upon the difference & can't find either without a guidebook.

I have been in and seen many poly relationships. I have observed many girls take guys who would have been better off as my 3rd wife than being 1st wife to the 1 they ended up with.
The parameters to treating multiple wives are the same as for 1. Everyone needs to be honest & kind & caring.

I'd be more concerned for the males who have to go without a mate because of this.
Ladyofemotions · 31-35, F
@SW-User Lols. Certain males would tell you that y\there are more women than men on this earth, so there's plenty to go around.
SW-User
@Ladyofemotions I suppose.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@SW-User that hurt my eyes
SW-User
No, not dangerous but maybe causes hurt rather than harm
Ladyofemotions · 31-35, F
@SW-User It can create a lot of harm. As a woman I wouldn't accept it. I was near to but thought against it as I'm too emotional
SW-User
@Ladyofemotions Then you wanted a yes answer?! It's a common practice.
GJOFJ3 · 61-69, M
No. It can be abused but no inherit harm.
Ladyofemotions · 31-35, F
@GJOFJ3 Abused how?
GJOFJ3 · 61-69, M
@Ladyofemotions where women are kept against their will or physically abused.
SW-User
Only if it's against her will
Ladyofemotions · 31-35, F
@SW-User Mnay have been tricked into it. I almost was, until the guy's sister let me know what was going on
SW-User
@Ladyofemotions In that case if someone is being tricked it is a harmful thing and not okay.
SW-User
It sounds confusing
Ladyofemotions · 31-35, F
@SW-User The question?
SW-User
@Ladyofemotions no polygamy

If it was just relationship rules not, involving God and treating the women as property etc making them have more kids than they can take care of etc it would be okay but normally that is not how it is performed. Normally it is a toxic place for women and children.
