That's very interesting! A very progressive tribal tradition when you compare it to other traditions that have a more barbaric flair to women.

I think its not a good one because the women could get pregnant from a partner she might not choose or a STD, and yes, polygamy makes males more prone to sexual agressive behavior.

    Hello, please remember to read the sub rules before commenting, as different subs here on SaidIt have different rules! This is a mod rule 4b sub and is meant only for female participants (which you state you aren't in another comment).

    If you'd like to repost your comment or discuss this topic in an appropriate space I might suggest a crosspost in the open-to-all subs /s/feminism or /s/women.

    I want to emphasize that it's my intention here to treat all participants with respect, including you. It is also my role here to enforce the rules which are meant to keep this space functioning as intended. The sub policy here is stated in the sidebar:

    Content known to be from male people is removed. Accounts that post here and are known to be male will have their ability to post here removed.

    This is the rule I will be acting in accordance with now. Please note that this is in no way a condemnation or endorsement of your contribution, and it's not a punishment, it's simply meant to keep the space functioning as it's meant to. And again, remember that you're free to post elsewhere if you like on this topic. The "other discussions" tab can make it easy to find discussions on the same topic in different subs so I'd encourage you to use that (I think posting a link to this post will do it) if you want to make it easy for interested people to find your discussion on this topic too. You should still be able to view the content of your comment on your userpage if you would like to post the text elsewhere.
