Look at russian newspapers. Their politics intend to allow multiple wives and marriages.
Reason: more women in russia than men. Part of the russian men are alcholics or die early. In some moment appears that to every 2 women there is only a man.
this become domographic problem and this decision could solve it. And French president Miteran live with 2 wives.
Peoples are different :-)
For some of us one woman is more than needed, for other need more than one
