Polygamy

I have accessed http://www.hop.com/biglove This site belongs to HBO TV station. It contains several links like the one that shows the programs presented at the screen. Big Love is one the programs that is presented now, and is talking about the polygamy. In addition, there is a link that talks about the big love show. Also there are some interviews with some actors who work for big love show.

Polygamy is when you have more than one wife at the same time. There are many views about polygamy around the world. In my opinion religions are behind these differences. However, some religions like ISLAM allowed polygamy for many reasons. On the other hand, it has many difficult conditions to ensure the interactions and rights of all parties, particularly justice, equality, food, clothing, expense and mercy. At the time many societies denied it. As a result, prohibited and illegal sexual relationships became acceptable. Therefore these societies often have illegitimate children or foundlings more then the societies that accept it.

The web site that I visited was http://www.slowlane.com Generally SLOWLANE is talking about the fathers who stay home with their children. However the site contains stories about stay-at-home dads, SAHD, from around the country to help other SAHDs. Also the site indicates a new book called "The man who would be Dad"by Hogan Hilling. It helps fathers to understand the meaning of being dad. In addition to that the site tries to clarify the picture to the husband about the mothers and what they may feel by recommending a book called, "Anatomy of a Working Mom's Brain" Nevertheless the site has many links that may help SAHDs to be familiar with the recent developments in this area.

In my opinion this site might be useful for some, but it is not my cup of tea. I think if the father stays at home while wives drive to work it is fully opposite of nature. I am not against the womens rights, but every person must carry out his/her natural duties. Nonetheless, cooperation between the spouses is required. On the other hand if the wife is not around for any reason the husband for sure will take place of the mother. As a result, the fathers will look for help around.
