Polygyny, according to Webster Dictionary is “the state or practice of having two or more wives at the same time.” We wonder why certain women can stay in that situation. There are at least ten reasons which support this situation:
- The woman is so deeply in love with her husband. Especially if the hubby is her first love too. Since she was a child she had fallen for him and so comfortable with him. Hence, she could not love other guy but her husband only.
- Clinging Vine. As long as their marriage, the wife is not conditioned of making her own money, while hubby is able to fulfill anything she wants, her children want, and even her parents and relatives want. Therefore, it’s hard for her to live away from her husband.
- Stupidity. On this condition, hubby is so powerful in order to influence or even wash his wife’s brain with any he wants. Eventually, because of her stupidity, she agrees with all of her hubby’s word. Probably, this is because of her lack of information and socialization.
- Children. This is the most common reason for women to keep staying on polygyny. The main objective is to protect her children though it is so painful for her. Most of the time, this situation is not also comfortable for the children. They could feel any confusing even hatred to the father.
- Religious. In some religious, polygyny is not prohibited yet suggested in order to help the widows with their children or to reach the higher level in their belief.
- There is no other choice. The woman had neither kith nor kin. Though she has family and friends, but they have not intention of helping her to get out from that situation. Even they support and half force her for not going anywhere and keep staying with her husband.
- Afraid of being lonely. Actually, this is the combination of love, children, had neither kith nor kin, or maybe she is too ugly and not have any self-confidence at all.
- Immature. Similar with stupidity but covered childish feature lack of father’s love and hope and want to accept it from her husband. And yes, she got it from her husband, feel comfortable with him no matter her husband has divided his love with other one/s.
- Certain Condition. Especially for man who still believe in mystical world for his physical or even financial power. One of the condition (the guru’s command) is he has to marry more women.
- Barren wife. For this situation, moreover if the husband has only little love for his wife, and in the other side, the wife has no other choice; then all she can do is just accept and surrender to all of her husband opinion and decision.
My question now is on what category are you(?)? Or is there any category I miss? Please add more.

Around one hour ago, I received a call from my home neighbor. I didn’t recognize the voice, she said, “I am your neighbor, Ms. Yati.”
“Ms. Yati who?” I really didn’t realize at all. Isn’t it too much?
I and family have been moving to a new neighborhood just for couple of months because our home is being constructed. The undeserved thing is I rarely to socialize with my home neighborhood; it’s not the worst, because the worst thing is it’s hard for me to recall the name of my home neighbors. Therefore, when Ms. Yati called, I need some minutes to recall who is she.
Ms. Yati informed me that Mr. Tris (the one who has a store) just died this morning. It’s hard to believe, because I saw him almost everyday with his familiar regards and smile. While this morning he just passed away suddenly. Everyone in my neighborhood was really shocked.
Behind this condolence, there is a red line in my home neighborhood; that I can call my home neighborhood as ‘widow’ alley. Why? Because in my home neighborhood (it’s in alley landscaping), there are nine widows from about twenty five families.
When I called hubby about this condolence, he said, “There are so many sad widow in our neighborhood.”
“You think that the widow must be sad? Probably some of them could be laugh in their heart.” I asked him back (just for playing my and his mind)
“How bout you, are you going to laugh or cry?”
“don’t ask like that….baby.”

Probably, you have heard about this. But I would like to share this to they who haven’t known this before.
This is about Ms. Bertha. A woman around 50’s, but still charming. She has a 20’s years skin and wonderful nose and eyes and chin and everything of her part of body.
Ms. Bertha’s gorgeous is not a gifted but by operation. Yes, she’s been operated for sooo many times, till she becomes confused about what else need to be operated. She is always changing year by year even sometime by months.
Then one day, something is happened. Her nephew, the one that she has been caring since baby got illness and need to be stayed in the hospital. So, she goes to hospital everyday for her baby. The room is on the second floor. Sometime she just presses the lift button, but in another time she enjoys stairs for the sake of her health.
The worst thing happen, when she is on the stair, she got slipped and her head crash the stairs then the floor. She is unconscious till death.
Next at last part of her journey to heaven after the death, she is in front of the heaven’s gate now, which is guarded by two angels who just called her name, “Ms. Bertha, please enter the heaven.” But when she starts her first step the same two of angels hinder her. She asks,” why do forbid me to enter?” The two angels says,”Because you are different with the figure of Ms. Bertha in our data.”
So, Ms. Bertha fails to be in heaven for being too changing
