Sister Wives is Back

Are you watching "Sister Wives" or have you watched it in the past? Lauren at realitytea.com has a very detailed recap of the start of the new season.

As we've noted, polygamy, and the wider spectrum of polyamory, looks different with different people. Some viewers are unavoidably going to watch shows like this and conclude that "This is how is how polygamy is."

For some people, it is.

But polygamy is more than polygyny, and even polygynous relationships are different in different families.

This is one situation.

This is one situation presented literally through a lens that limits our perspective.

Your mileage may vary. (Sorry, I don't know if there is an equivalent saying with kilometers.)

I'm glad the show is raising awareness, especially since the Browns have challenged the ridiculous law in Utah criminalizing polyfidelity.
