Asking this as a Qatari with a polygamous father. My father’s second wife is Swedish and I know it was a tough pill to swallow for her family and friends back home.

      Historically, most forms of polygamy are very misogynistic. It’s not just because of Christianity, it’s more due to how it was implemented.

      It is absolutely possible to have a great polygamous relationship, but especially recent history has been filled with examples of it being used as a way to subjugate, not free people.
