Better idea: let your wife have a wife.

Then you only have to deal with one woman, but also get the benefit of watching her with other chicks and having occasional threesomes.

Just like having one wife, only with benefits

I know a "couple" where the lady of the house has both a husband and a wife. The wife has a child by a gay friend that is being raised by the lady of the house and her wife. The husband (he and the lady of the house had a child that died at age six, very tragic all around) has a girlfried who lives with all three who is a pseudo-submissive and has an additional boyfriend. She also has a child, by one of these two males. The kids seem fine, I gave up when I had to go 3-dimensional to figure out who is with who, when, and why (there are half a dozen other peripheal players as well). Oddly enough, there isn't really all that much sex going on beyond a normal marriage. Go figure.

They've avoided that to. It is definitely not my style, but the kids are fine, and cherished, and I can think of a heck of alot of straight couples who don't treat their children as well.

Well if there are only 3 people in the relationship it does (that's the definition of polygamy ). 2 men to one woman is polyandry and I'm not sure what a group of mixed would be, other than a Roman orgy .

I didn't know there was different words for this. You learn somethign everyday.

But.... according to merriam-webster online, Polygamy applies to multiple spouses of any sex, Polyandry to multiple husbands, and Polygyny to multiple wives.

Two husbands definately has more income potential. Plus you don't have to have sex as often, cuz let's face it, if you do it right, your wife will want sex more often than you can humanly perform.

Why on Earth would you use a condom with your wife? Seriously, just get her on the pill or give her a depro shot.

Because not all women appretiate having sole responsibility over such things?

To expect such an arrangment is quite mysoginst.


And personally, I would be more comfortable with a condom then medication - external vs. internal, inate vs. active. A condom makes alot more sense, unless you just can't be arsed with it and want to burden the woman.
