Polygamy for Chechenya--Polygamy - The Ultimate Feminist Lifestyle

Polygamy for Chechenya--Polygamy - The Ultimate Feminist Lifestyle

By Elizabeth Joseph

I've often said that if polygamy didn't exist, the modern American
career woman would have invented it. Because, despite its reputation,
polygamy is the one lifestyle that offers an independent woman a real
chance to "have it all".

One of my heroes is Dr. Martha Hughes Cannon, a physician and a
plural wife who in 1896 became the first woman legislator in any U.S.
state or territory. Dr. Cannon once said, "You show me a woman who
thinks about something besides cookstoves and washtubs and baby
flannels, and I will show you nine times out of ten a successful
mother". With all due respect, Gloria Steinem has nothing on Dr.
Cannon.

As a journalist, I work many unpredictable hours in a fast-paced
environment. The news determines my schedule. But am I calling home,
asking my husband to please pick up the kids and pop something in the
microwave and get them to bed on time just in case I'm really late?
Because of my plural marriage arrangement, I don't have to worry. I
know that when I have to work late my daughter will be at home
surrounded by loving adults with whom she is comfortable and who know
her schedule without my telling them. My eight-year-old has never
seen the inside of a day-care center, and my husband has never eaten
a TV dinner. And I know that when I get home from work, if I'm dog-
tired and stressed-out, I can be alone and guilt-free. It's a rare
day when all eight of my husband's wives are tired and stressed at
the same time.

It's helpful to think of polygamy in terms of a free-market approach
to marriage. Why shouldn't you or your daughters have the opportunity
to marry the best man available, regardless of his marital status?

I married the best man I ever met. The fact that he already had five
wives did not prevent me from doing that. For twenty-three years I
have observed how Alex's marriage to Margaret, Bo, Joanna, Diana,
Leslie, Dawn, and Delinda has enhanced his marriage to me. The guy
has hundreds of years of marital experience; as a result, he is a
very skilled husband.

It's no mystery to me why Alex loves his other wives. I'd worry about
him if he didn't. I did worry in the case of Delinda, whom I hired as
my secretary when I was practicing law in Salt Lake City. Alex was in
and out of my office a lot over the course of several months, and he
never said a word about her. Finally, late one night on our way home
from work, I said, "Why haven't you said anything about Delinda?"

He said, "Why should I?"

I said, "She's smart, she's beautiful. What, have you gone stupid on
me?"

They were married a few months later.

Polygamy is an empowering lifestyle for women. It provides me the
environment and opportunity to maximize my female potential without
all the tradeoffs and compromises that attend monogamy. The women in
my family are friends. You don't share two decades of experience, and
a man, without those friendships becoming very special.

I imagine that across America there are groups of young women
preparing to launch careers. They sit around tables, talking about
the ideal lifestyle to them in their aspirations for work,
motherhood, and personal fulfillment. "A man might be nice," they
might muse. "A man on our own terms," they might add. What they don't
realize is that there is an alternative that would allow their dreams
to come true. That alternative is polygamy, the ultimate feminist
lifestyle.

From a speech given by Elizabeth Joseph at "Creating a Dialogue:
Women Talking to Women", a conference organized by the Utah chapter
of the National Organization for Women. Joseph is an attorney, a
journalist, and lives in Big Water, Utah.

Beloved Ones:

I Am not promoting Polygamy. I Am sharing the fact that I agree with Divine Polygamy.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Divine Polygamy is for Wise self sacrificing womb-genders who understand unconditional loving, and knows this life is Not For Ourselves Alone, and are Kingdom builders, and not Man killers. Womb-genders who know what it takes to build an Empire/Pyramid/Nation. For a Nation will rise no higher than its womb-gender.

Wise women who are able to get along with her sisters with harmony and balance, and no envy, jealousy, malice, strife, confusion...and the likes of. Womb-genders who truly loves her sister.

We ask where is the Afrikan man. Where is this type of Afrikan womb-gender. She and she alone can make this happen if she only knew the power invested in her.

I will not turn my back on my Soul (Kevin Ervin)

Afrika is still paradise in spite of her conditions.

Here is loving Afrika

Goddess Isis

Chief Osiris writes: The womb-gender has powers that is of the Star-Sun, she is the very oneness of life Divine Being, allowing herself to be divided into two separate Genders, yet to function as One and serve as co-creator and producer of Life Being, she has the ability to hear the energy that is of the body Soul and reveal its intuitive power with the power of Discernment, knowing that which is only known by the Divine Mind, that is not yet made available to the conscious level of the body life.

The womb-gender possess a magnetic field that is capable of creating
such gravity that it will attract that which is of a Divine nature, or such power will repel energy that is of a deceiving and lying nature and can become as a vacuum in space, her space, which is capable of destroying that which serve not to be acceptable to the Divine Nature of which she is the primary model from.

Beloved, in plain words, without the womb-gender, the Staff-gender(man) is of no consequence to Life, he is only a by-product of the original, the womb-gender, the strength to her other part, the staff-gender.(man)

If the womb-gender only knew her power, the people call Black and
Afrikan will be in a state of ascension, instead of descending.

When the two genders return to be one in their Divinity with each
other, then the world will be required to acknowledge such enjoined
Companionship, between the two genders, yet is only the Divine One, forever and eternally connected to God, which is the One and Only Infinite Intelligent Energy, in or out of existence.
