Sister Wives. Who knew those two little words would have such a controversial translation. The TLC series Sister Wives is just like a real-life HBO Big Love show...although it's got less sex and arguably less drama. However, that's because the family isn't running a home improvement store, trying to run a casino on an Indian reservation, and Kody Brown, unlike the fictional Bill Henrickson, isn't running for a public office.Polygamy is illegal in Utah, and you can be a polygamist even if you aren't "legally" married to multiple partners. Co-habitation can also indicate a polygamist lifestyle. As such, the state of Utah is investigating Kody Brown and his entourage of wives for polygamy.
The Sister Wives also appeared on the Oprah show - a sure fire indication that they have "made it" to viral popularity status. Honestly, I didn't think that I would like the show. However, now it's one of my guilty pleasures.
The family discussed a lot on Oprah yesterday. You can read all about sister wives here, and see a video about the show below.
Disgusting and degrading, I hope they are charged criminally. Those kids are being raised to think women are worth less than men and it's repulsive. I would never watch the show.
ReplyDeletewow a whole lot of hate out there on this one
ReplyDeleteits not that women are worth less, its that they are worth too much to be forced to settle for a man who is not as good as they deserve just because the one who is the best for them already has a wife
Why is it okay for a married man to have his several misstresses have children by them and not even care for them, but for someone who is supporting all his wives and children it is wrong. Everyone overlooks the one night stand the grouping and all the immoral crap that goes on in America
ReplyDeleteMy motto is to each their own...I just think it's interesting that the mormon religion which is so against gay marriage can't find the compassion when families like this face discrimination also
ReplyDeleteJust some info for ANON...The Mormon Church does not approve of polygamy. They actually excommunicate those who practice it.
