I watched a couple of times. I think the guy is creepy,and I think the women have a self esteem problem.Its almost as though they dont feel worthy enough to have a husband that is devoted only to them.I cant imagine being married to a guy who had to have other women too.Its their business,but personally it makes my stomach wobble!!!

They aren't Mormons. Mormons DO NOT practice polygamy. We believe in following the laws of the country. These people (Sister Wives) call themselves Fundalmentalist Mormons, meaning they have left the Church and are living their own lifestyle.

As far as I know, he is not claiming the "wives" as dependants so what laws are they actually breaking?
Like I said, I would never share, but how is this different from a guy having a mistress who doesn't live with him vs. a "wife" who does and the real wife doesn't mind? Educate me.

It isn't a religion that I would or could believe in but they do. Edie
