Norway's Directorate of Immigration (UDI) reports that despite being illegal, there are an increasing number of men with multiple wives in Norway.
The reason is married men travel to countries where polygamy is legal and then add a wife, NRK (Norwegian Broadcasting) reports.
"This is something that Norwegian authorities cannot prevent," said UDI divisional director Karl Erik Sjøholt.
In connection with new marriage laws, the UDI will also try to tighten rules to discourage bigamy or polygamy. Their suggestion is that married men who enter into a new marriage without first divorcing in Norway be permanently prevented from reuniting their family here. So far men have been allowed to bring their second wife into Norway.
The UDI wants the proposal integrated into the new Marriage Act currently under consideration at the Ministry of Children and Family Affairs.
Here in the good old US --Half of my Muslim male students (college) have multiple wives...one here in the US and the other/s back in Yemen or Sonalia or wherever the hell they came from.
I know this from a few people (mainly disgruntled wives) have confessed this to me privately. And in some cases...they bring their "sisters" here who are really second wives. Lovely...
Not.
Ick that is just nasty!
Very nasty indeed and not only nasty...we are talking about lots and lots of kids. They do not want to hear about birth control. And most of them are getting all kinds of social services: food stamps, tuition aid, payments, etc.
You 100% right to say what you want and what is the fact, but there is no defferences between you and that people who arrive in Norway, cause they grow in such country and culture, can't u beleive if u was born on that countries u might be like them.. not like what u r now... I wish soon everything get more safe and become much better the first peron that return home that would me us me and all AFGHAN.
