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.

Would you want to share a wife with other men?
Most instances of middle eastern polygamy have a heavy element of materialism to them. The women mostly agree because it gives them a higher standard of living, not because they like the concept.
People of Sweden have a relatively high living standard as a baseline so when your father’s second wife decided to do this it was like giving up ‘real’ partnership for some fancy hand bags.
Some people do. If they’re not harming anyone, who the fuck cares what their relationships look like.
