PM,
"Having your husband take a 2nd wife is about the greatest dishonor you can do a woman..."
This is what is not expected from a muslim woman and the reason for my participation in this discussion. Don't ever think that those women in polygamous relationship are dishonored which is an insult to those who by choice are in such a relationship. For example, middle eastern women consider it a God given right to men to have more wives. They treat such women with equal honor. There are instances where these wifes live together in the same premise by choice. And there are instances where a younger wife nurses the ailing elder wife in bed. It is her choice, perhaps driven by faith....
