We've been watching this show since it came on....it's weird, it's kinda like watching a train wreck. My wife says that I'd love to have 3 wives for the....er, benefits. But I think I put up with enough crap from just her! Trust me, one wife is all I can handle.
Same here. I can barely handle one wife
Our stay in Salt Lake City amounted to only two days, and therefore we had no time to make the customary inquisition into the workings of polygamy and get up the usual statistics and deductions preparatory to calling the attention of the nation at large once more to the matter. I had the will to do it. With the gushing self-sufficiency of youth I was feverish to plunge in headlong and achieve a great reform here - until I saw the Mormon women. Then I was touched. My heart was wiser than my head. It warmed toward these poor, ungainly and pathetically "homely" creatures, and as I turned to hide the generous moisture in my eyes, I said, "No - the man that marries one of them has done an act of Christian charity which entitles him to the kindly applause of mankind, not their harsh censure - and the man that marries sixty of them has done a deed of open-handed generosity so sublime that the nations should stand uncovered in his presence and worship in silence."
-- Mark Twain
We watch it too, and we like it.
I think my husband would say that one is all he could handle, too. He was happily married for 23 years and lost his first beloved wife to disease. Now after almost 9 years of marriage, he says that his propensity to find feisty, out-spoken women is a pattern. He's now had two, fortunately not at the same time, and that's enough! Ha!!
I thought the Sopranos were disfunctional until I met the Hendricksons.
Had the same conversation with my wife. 'Cept I brought it up, not her.
I was just...agog at the notion of living with 3 women. One makes me want to throw myself off a tall building sometimes.
Mega-Dittoes on all you said my good man.
