This report examines polygyny, where one man is married to multiple wives, as practiced in some Asian, Middle Eastern and African countries. Some aspects may be similar to fundamentalist Mormon subcultures in the U.S. and Canada that have an authoritarian male-dominated family structure. However, the observations are unlikely to apply to egalitarian polygamous marriages in Western nations.

This report studies polygyny (one man married to multiple wives) as
practiced in Asian, Middle Eastern and African countries. Some of the observations may be similar to that found within Fundamentalist Mormon U.S. and Canadian subcultures which practice an authoritarian maledominated family structure. However, these observations are unlikely to be replicated in egalitarian polygamous marriages in Western countries.
