Marriage to four women
Being from Europe, I traveled with my family to Egypt for my summer vacation. It was one of the most wonderful places I've ever visited, and the people there are truly amazing. However, I also saw other foreigners in Egypt, like Saudis. I found a man, literally married to four women, sitting on the beach with four other women dressed entirely in black!
I was truly surprised at the time, how could four women be so happy? This is the complete opposite of the idea of equality and participation.
What is the real motivation behind this, and why do they accept it willingly, saying it's God's will, and defend this idea—both Saudi women and men on social media?
Because this has nothing to do with love or the partnership.. With all due respect to what everyone wants, ofc.
[ Edit ]
What I mean is not polyamory itself, but rather that a man has the right to marry up to four wives while women do not. I have no problem with a mature man and woman practicing polyamory with each other's consent. However, the situation here is different; it allows the man to do this and divorce them at any time, replacing them with four others. The problem is that I see women agreeing to polygamy , and of course, they are free as long as it is with their consent. But this equates a woman to a quarter of a man, and she can only be with one man.
For me, I do not agree with this because it is against equality and partnership between the two parties. However, if a man and a woman both practice polyamory with each other's consent, this is equality, not enslavement or one party having exclusive rights over the other.
