I thought this would be an anti-polygamy site. Boy, was I in for a surprise. I think the creepiest thing about it is the personal ad section. ( :: shiver :: )

I don't know if this is the right forum for this or not; the site tries pretty hard to hide the fact that it has any religious affiliation. But it's there, all right.

Wow, now here's a persuasive ad that's bound to have the ladies just lining up!

Quote:
Me and My 5 wives have 32 children. We want one more wife to come and live with us so we can have more. We love God and the outdoors. We have 3 ferretts and 4 dogs.
Please respond,

Jessica, Kathy, Megan, Lindsy, Rebecca and Kieth Maltz
I think it's the "ferretts [sic]" that bring the whole piece together. Brilliant!

How could one resist an ad like this:

Quote:
We are a Torah observant household for the most part though I do not force my views on my wives ALL children will be raised with Torah in their lives and will be obediant to it so long as they are in my household. Wives will not be totally exempt either though not as held to it as much as I or the children.
Such a charming guy. Blech.

This site just straight up scares me.

However, I'm still waiting for a Polygamy site with personal ads where there are multiple HUSBANDS One woman cracking her whip wanting more than one husband . . now THAT is something I'd click my mouse for

Any takers?

Use the search (and descriptive) term polyandry (multiple husbands to one wife), not polygamy, which solely means multiple wives to one husband.

We've only just met, you and I.
Shouldn't we at least talk a wee while first before arranging polyandrous matrimony ?
