Sister Wives...really??


Yes, I can't help myself. I have to comment on the show, Sister Wives. I have only seen it twice, but I definitely feel the need to say something about it. My first reaction was total shock that they would even glorify this lifestyle by giving it a show. The second thoughts were how sad that these poor women have such low self esteems that they don't even think they deserve one man all to themselves. It's actually one of the saddest things I've seen in awhile. Maybe it's because it's my Anniversary tomorrow, but it's got me thinking about my life. I thoroughly enjoy being the queen of my own castle, be it ever so humble. I mean, I have the attention, love and nurture from one man, and he from me. Isn't that so beautiful of God's design? My life's accomplishment is met when he is happy, loved, and cared for. That's not my whole life, but you understand what I mean. He has the same goal. I can only imagine what a true mess that situation really is that we don't know about. I can tell by watching that some of the "sisters" are jealous of each other. Yeah, that's a big shock. And not to be mean, but you have to look at the obvious. The ones he's had awhile have lost their looks, and figures a little, and look at the newest edition. She's pretty and fit. I'm only pointing that out because it really shows what this guy, Kody, is all about....himself. I saw the episode where he took one of his wives on a trip with just "their family". She was so needy and desperate. She kept thanking him for making the trip happen to spend time with them all. It was so obvious that this woman was starved for his attention,insecure about the new wife, and saying she was happy without looking like she was. How pathetic for these women to grovel at this man's feet as if he's the one doing them the favor. It really makes me sick. It makes you wonder what kind of teaching they believe that makes this somehow a good idea to them. It's basically legalized cheating where you also bring your affair home to meet the kids and stay awhile. Some setup they have going...for the man.
