African men, why marry one wife when it's a man's nature to be POLYGAMOUS? In nature, alpha males breed with as many females as possible to spread their genes, provide and protect females in their group. Polygamous men don't control and abuse women because they have many options. Their resources and lives don't revolve around obsessing over one woman. A POLYGAMOUS man is a philanthropist who distributes wealth among women in his harem to help the most vulnerable in society. Women also get to elevate above competitive jealousy, emulate each other and benefit from a committed husband.
