As a woman I noticed how A LOT of women especially Black American women get real offended about conversations about polygamy, when a lot of these same women will lay up and have children out of wedlock. These same women will also be a side chic and have children by married men in a heartbeat. Not only that, someone being polygamous is none of anyone’s business if you are not involved in that relationship.
This is true. If we all operated with this type of radical honesty, the world would be such a better place… it’s the Eurocentric system of love that has people here triggered when this topic is bought up… It’s bizarre
Okay, now flip the coin and see that the women opposite of those low standards still may come off "offended" by the topic... humans are selfish and can often be possessive, I'm not sharing my man and he should not be giving himself to anyone else
Jay Take Profits: WOW someone finally hit the nail on the head Bingo. His logic of reasoning is beyond Ridiculous when it comes to God, Morality etc…. But he like to talk to those nobody’s he have on bcuz they agree with him
He's muslim but he never once mention that being a good husband and partake in polygamy requiert to be a firm believer in Allah. He never once said that he had a conviction from Allah to be polygamist neither.That's very telling
I think the divorce rate stats mention is a little misleading.. women in other countries Eg in the global south don’t necessarily have the legal or cultural freedom to leave a marriage. Many other contributing factors IMO. Also saying humans are the only mammals who practice monogamy is... objectively false and easily disprovable :( e.g. wolves.
The divorce rate is the lowest it has ever been especially in America. Specifically in the African American community marriages lasted longer during slavery than they do today.
What Mike says about lying and cheating on your woman hit home. I was literally saying this the other day. I don’t trust any dude who cheats on his lady or lies about nut shit. You can be honest with women. Are they always gonna like it? No, maybe not but a woman of value will ALWAYS respect the fact that she can trust you enough to keep it real and reciprocate that back to you.
His comments about “men can’t control themselves” in the workplace was incredibly irresponsible and ridiculous. That’s like saying “cashiers can’t control themselves around money, you should expect the to steal”. Grown men are perfectly capable, but because of enablement like this, they see nothing wrong with it. Sexual harassment comes in so many different forms. You’re at work to work. Continuous sexual advances is crazy. People see what they want to see and take things to far and become killers, sexual assault era, and stalkers. Considering there are such things as maternal leave and parental leave for men, advancing in your career is your business and you can pursue a promotion and get paid more. A lot of men get paid more money just because they have a penis… they did nothing better or more glorious . As someone who works in HR those particular comments annoyed the hell out of me.
19:35 so Omar was correct a few eisodes back. This guy says he doesn’t get joy from a woman’s love. Omar said something to the notion of he doesn’t see the benefit of polygamy due to the bond, emotional taxation and feelings it takes to manage one woman. If you don’t desire love and find peace in a woman’s love and want to build in that then yeah dating multiple women is anything. You’re not even interested in what she can give you besides children.
To be fair his way of thinking is rare and only a small percentage of men can even manage to pull off what he is speaking of… So why are black women still not being made wives?
@@Mr2FlyDesmond123 I think the question is: Why aren’t the men marrying their women? . We both need each other.. . So as we both become the men & women we want to be (mentally, emotionally, physically, financially etc) we should be naturally sharing our lives with each other.. . Bringing together families is so important.. ❤️🙏🏾
@@Mr2FlyDesmond123 it’s rare in America for. What’s common is for people to lie and cheat. Being honest about wanting multiple women is rare. Shouldn’t be though. I bet every women who publicly disagrees, will say she’s never been cheated on…. Women get cheated on so much because men aren’t comfortable telling women what they want… so they do it behind their backs…. An honest man stands on his truth and y’all get upset… fascinating
@@MikeRashidOfficial You implied humanity had not been civilized long and then pointed to the fact that black people were enslaved 100 yrs ago as if us being victimized was a reflection that we were uncivilized. The whole statement was BS. You further went on to say that was "how long people have been nice to eachother" Not true we were living peacefully long before slavery not sure where you're getting the majority of your information but its definitely not rooted in fact. 3:47
It’s actually comical how insanely incorrect he was on his statements. even just starting out with how we are one of two species to have one mate. secondly, there is sexual harassment in the workplace EVERYWHERE! There were so many things wrong. Especially the accountability on men. Honestly we can just note the fact that he, himself couldn’t successfully carry out a polygamist relationship. 🤷🏾♀️
Even tho i didn’t agree with most if his statements i'm glad this platform is allowing people with different way of living to tell their story and share their opinions
Y’all need to have Jidenna on the show. He has been in many a poly relationships and his perspective is soooooo much more respectable and enlightening for BOTH men and women…. 💛
Ok so y’all woke up this day and chose VIOLENCE!! This needs a ⚠️TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️. This man has the right to live however he chooses but there was a bit of revisionist history and remixing in his explanations. Also, the way the guys held their tongues and just let him say controversial things - wisdom 😂
Mike Rashid is coming from a place of experience. Men think they want polygamy but really don’t understand it has it’s ups and downs. You have to be knowledgeable and be willing to deal with the good and the bad as a real man should.
My phone went mute 70% into this. I identified numerous I'll spirits from this man and pray the spirit of God grants us all high discernment to know that not everything that sounds logical is right. God bless 🙏🏾
"Men can't control themselves in the workplace" is just a fact. That comment was so obviously made to bring up the point that women need protection because simply, many men harass, like it or not. Doesn't mean women should just accept it and be passive about it, nor does it mean that men are just supposed to behave that way. Every single day I'm amazed how simple statements are ridiculously misconstrued.
We are not animals and or insects. God made us in his image. Animal where created for the earth to prosper… not for us to act like them or base our relationships off of them…..Do animals work a job??? Do animals have responsibilities???? Do animals have to learn how to read, write, drive etc… I really dislike when they make this point and compare humans to animals….. we are not animal and we should not live like them….
We actually are animals. We have animal DNA. Thats a peer reviewed genetic and scientific fact. The only thing that separates us from other animals on this planet is our neocortex.
I’ve only been in one relationship, though logically poly relationships with purpose make sense. Like he said, I’ve been Americanized and I’ve definitely been one to want my man to myself. However, I’m constantly taking self-inventory and working on self. I’m not for nor against poly relationships, whatever works for folks works, but I’m not necessarily closed to it.
Salute to Mike. Agree or disagree it’s a worthy conversation to be had. And lets be honest; The women who are “upset” by what he’s saying, in most cases have nothing to worry about, because the men they deal w/ don’t have the resources or ability to pull it off and they themselves don’t qualify for the type of man that can. 😂
Respectfully, self control & discipline is very attractive in a man. Especially when it’s one man with one woman, as a woman it shows that he can hold it down no matter what his fleshy desires are. That’s why a man leaves to join his wife, not wives. The kings long ago who had many wives biblically have fallen because of it, these woman worshipped other Gods. Everything these wives were doing had influence on this one man. One wasn’t enough to the flesh of man. But the to the Holy Spirit it is enough, for Adam. That is why when quantity is a priority it desensitizes the importance of quality in one person. Foundation and hierarchy is important before multiplication. Multiplication in children, not wives respectfully. 1 Corinthians 7:2
I think we should be accurate in terminology with these conversations. Polygamy is a person being MARRIED* ☝🏾 to more than one person. Which in America is illegal. It is a crime called Bigamy, and has been outlawed by and in this country since the 1830s. Polyamory is being in an intimate/sexual Relationship ** ☝🏾 with more than one person. Which is what EVERYONE in these conversations are participating in or debating. If they’re in America. Peace to the N&N podcast ✌🏾
I welcome more openly polygamous men into the dating pool. It gives other men the confidence to be honest about what they want. For whatever reason, men like to deny that they too “follow the leader,” but the reality is that it’s human nature to observe the risk of another person before deciding to take the risk (or not) for ourselves. For example, if witnessing the peace of a polygamous man is what it takes for men to be upfront and honest then men need more Mike’s to represent. Simultaneously, peacefully monogamous men should be found more easily 😅
The Eurocentric style of romance ‘monogomy’ is actually a new concept to black men… Before the transatlantic slave trade, polygamy in amongst our people where normal. Like it still is in countries that are predominantly black.
Diallo Smith: Exactly it’s Ridiculous and we have people like Mike that have Daughters pushing this Foolishness. Lot of things in this world is becoming normal in other words popular. Just bcuz something is popular don’t make it right especially morally. Same sex is popular, transgender, school shootings are popular etc… that don’t make it right I mean that’s common sense.
@@MikeRashidOfficial Not entirely true. This also is dependent on religious affiliations. Christians in carribean and Africa we were not participating in this mess lol. And Christianity is an eastern religion.
These are his personal beliefs and whichever woman/women he can find that wanna vibe with that, thats fine, but dont speak as if this is reasonable logic. I also dont believe that the fellas (who are usually very versed in perspectives in conversations) presented much of a challenege to his views. There are many points that he was misinformed on, but I will speak on this one a lil bit. The culture of the middle eastern people (not just the women) is different because they are more duty bound not because they are perfectly ok, they just dont complain and do what is expected as their cultural norms. That whole young men cant control themselves comment was reckless and should have been checked immediately. Ok bye.
Young men do need sexual discipline, they need discipline all around. I don’t know how you took that statement, but I was stating it out of protecting women. I’m extremely protective of women… If you really listen to what I said in this interview, I don’t think you’d really disagree. First of all, im speaking about my preferences. I do not think poly is for most people. I do not preach it. For a man to have that with his women, he needs to be honest, he needs to be able to take care of his women wholeheartedly and making them feel safe and secure… he needs to be a man of great resources, mentally, spiritually, emotionally and financially….
@@MikeRashidOfficialyoung men need to know they CAN control themselves...but telling them they can't will not motivate them to hold themselves accountable and to practice discipline. Hope you don't have sons.
Definitely! he make it sound so good and sweet just like the devil made eve eat the fruit of the forbideen tree and made seems like it was nothing because the tree had good looking fruit.
When I explored a polygamous relationship, it had nothing to do with lust, and everything to do with love. I loved my women enough to be 100% honest with them. I loved my women enough to take care of them in every way.. I loved my women enough to protect them…
pt1 was good intelligent talk, but I'm so glad ya'll doubled back and brought on a voice to the depth of the lifestyle and different styles of non-monogomy. great content guys!
I swear when you leave 🥷’s to get something done, they come back with another problem. Y’all went & got this man to speak on polygamy. The same man that doesn’t want his daughters to be in a situation like that. 🤣 This sh’t right here baffles me bruh. The BS you 🥷’s continue to pull with this topic. The lack of education y’all have around this topic is crazy bruh. Stop bringing up the “Old” days. You 🥷’s stay bringing that up because it’s something you “Heard” all your life, but don’t really know what it meant back then. There was a different type of respect back then, the true kings & queens understood the assignment & there weren’t all this hoopla over just having a another woman just because you wanna have the choice to go from 1 to the next. Most of you dudes don’t even know what it really takes to LEAD. Y’all can’t even figure out simple problems, you think you about to juggle more than 1 woman? Hang it up. Then it’s y’all talking about what “Women” need to stop doing, this is an ongoing problem society will forever have. How about teach more boys how to protect their sexual energy, that it’s NOT cool to run through women & just because you let this backwards society raise your children to believe that they aren’t important, & that their sexual energy isn’t important, doesn’t make it okay for little boys to grow up thinking this toxic mindset. Just as much as women’s sexual energy is important, the same goes for dudes. Y’all be wrapped up in what society has taught you, that it’s always one sided & a double standard when it comes to women & men. What 1 can do vs what the other can’t do. The typical mindset of a brainwashed human being. Stop following these ppl rules & taking it as a way of living. Your way of living doesn’t mean it should be that way. To add, let’s stop bringing up & using nature as an excuse to sleep with multiple women. Yeah, we are human beings that practice monogamy & naturally it isn’t that way when it comes to animals. It still doesn’t make it politically correct to say this is how we all should be living. Not everyone wants to deal with multiple women, not all of us want to live directly like nature itself when it comes to the true nature of animals. This is nothing more than a basic mindset that people stay using to justify why they want more than one woman, or should I say, a reason to say “That’s how we should be living” NO sir, you can live that way. What works for you, is for you. & what works for someone else is for someone else. People get to wrapped up in trying to make & pass this sh’t off as facts. Not everything is facts, & not everything is meant to be taken literal. You people struggle with discipline , you can’t expect to elevate to the next level if you can’t overcome the natural thing that was instilled in all of us, except it takes some ppl longer than others not conquer it. While there are some that are just naturally disciplined & don’t need to do all the extra sh’t to master it. This applies to everything else that you struggle with, & instead of doing better & overcoming the thing’s god instilled in you to overcome. You find ways to go around it & then wrap it up in a truth that you try to dissect with the BS you spew. At the end of the day rather you spray perfume on a pile of sh’t. It’s still sh’t at the end of the day, rather or not you are unable to control yourself, it doesn’t make you any better than before. You’re not facing the thing’s you need to face in order to evolve in area’s that you know you need to evolve in. Too many of y’all be weak out here & try to smash everything you see & wonder why your life be in shambles. Your focus is off, & your not aligned with the purpose god put you here for. You gotta 1st be honest with yourself about the thing’s you want, & the thing’s you want to be better in. Then actively work on those thing’s & challenge yourself more each time. Too many dudes be looking at the external of something & seeing multiple women as one big orgy party. In this day & age it will never workout that way no matter what information you spew out in the world. These dudes don’t understand what respect is, loyalty, communication, & everything else that it takes to have a long healthy relationship with 1 woman. So what the F these 🥷’s going to do with multiple? Save it. 🤣
I am a women who comes from a Muslim family, raised Muslim. Believe me these women ARE NOT happy. I’ve seen it first hand, they are jealous, and territorial. I can tell you many situations of men with multiple wives. For instance, the wives of the Iman, not liking each other and arguing, because of what, the man. No women deep down wants to share. Also, I have friends who are poly Ig content creator, they have them same problems. It always starts off ok, but once you see what you dealing with and emotions start flaring up. It rarely works. Furthermore, women in other countries don’t have rights like women over here, in some countries women are not able to go out in public without a man. Currently, women are in the process and starting to attain rights, such being able drive a car or receiving an education. Mind you, I’ve been around Muslims my whole life, and I’ve been around many cultures and those women never tell delightful or positive stories. I have Somalian friend right now, who will tell you what these women go through and how abusive some men are over in the EAST! Women are not treated the best in a lot of those countries, they have no choice. Society looks down upon these women who are not married, less valuable. Parents send them to marry whoever. I prefer not. One man, one women for ME. This man knows he isn’t fair, stop playing! Some of these men pick and choose what they want to follow from our ancestor, because y’all damn sure do not do everything our ancestors did. And who said that their actions were righht? Back in the day women had to depend on men, they didn’t work, so to survive she has to be with a man, so that he can provide. They had to accept anything. Women if you accept this, you may be taken care of, but one women will always lack and feel less than. Imagine having kids, working, businesses, working out, etc. When do you have time to fulfill the emotional needs of 2 different women. On top of all your other responsibilities . I rather work and be single and have my men, than to accept this Just say I don’t have the discipline or this monogamy isn’t what I want because his arguments are not strong! It’s bias, and lacks factual evidence of this whole natural thing
I'm married to two black queens, "Dimes" and we are very happy. Most of you women who have 2 or 3 kids by three different guys or vice versa, you already in a poly situation.
@@Entrepreneur1017 nobody said they were ! But among the thing we have in common there is sexual desire both have that ! Why can't women express their sexual desire of having multiple partner without being shame for it
@@Entrepreneur1017 ok so women in polygamy relationships where they have multiple men and the man has multiple women is not ok??? Or that’s the woman being too masculine?
That's cause he's full of sht. Ya'll better stop listening to these Black fools and do whatever you want to do. Men will only shame you if you let them. Start shaming them back. If you sit back and wait on a man while he's disrespecting you by sleeping with other women, then you're a fool. This idiot is trying to mix "love" with disrespect in his message and unintelligent women fall for it.
I definitely wouldn’t have a problem with it as long as he is an honorable man and going to be an honorable father because we were meant to multiply but granite he has to be a man of a lot of knowledge and recourses that can handle the type of legacy he’s choosing to build in the United States since we do not practice polygamy and the world and our needs to live has changed so much
I appreciate his perspective and insight. This is the type of polygamy that makes sense to me , it’s true that many Americans can not grasp the concept. It makes way more sense than the cheating etc that many are doing . However a lot of people still wouldn’t be able to handle it because it required discipline, communication and a lot of responsibility. Honesty is of upmost importance and the community it can build is also very important.
I F with Bro on a fitness level but y’all was not expecting this conversation (per the camera when y’all move and y’all got the straightest face) like the rest of us 🥴
My thing is if the essence of polygamy is so "natural" then why does it require such explanation? and why isn't it easy to maintain? (He even said it's a lot to manage, like it takes emotional and financial strength lol) I think this is packaged lust idk.
At 19:32 He talks about how much energy and time it takes, then he goes on to say ... his life is not predicated on a woman's love. So why would you even be in any kind of relationship"at all then? Just say you want concubines and move on lmao
It’s required explanation to those who ask me about it. I don’t go around doing seminars about poly life… I teach people how to make money, and be in shape. If I’m asked a question, I’ll answer it honestly…
Overall this was another really great interview. Mike almost pissed me off 😂 but I kept listening and heard some clarity in what confused me lol Very interesting!! Thanks y’all ❤
The fact only 1/4 of this show concerned polygamy and the comments are dragging this man for his views you can tell people dont watch things throughout and THATS what’s wrong with our people
Y’all look so uninterested in what he’s saying, and just like other commenters, looks like y’all tuned him out a lot and zoned out 😂. I usually listen on Spotify, but I had to come to RUclips on this one to see the comments. Glad to see I’m not the only one thinking this is BS.
This is so disappointing. One would look at this brother’s muscles and assume he is disciplined. However, there is much growth and maturity needed within him. The fact that he is strattling the fence is one thing. But to package it and try to feed this mess to millions is people is deplorable. I taught elementary children from a sister-wives relationship. The children are so traumatized and seeking attention and validation from a father that is spread then. Just so sad. At its core this is nothing but selfishness!
The most ideal man for a polygynous relationship is one who is responsible, honorable, thoughtful, caring, ambitious, and successful. Right? After watching this, I think a lot of women are offended by this conversation because they don't even have the ability to get that type of man for a monogamous relationship. They simply don't attract that. And that's cool!!! Ultimately, I think people just need to stay in their lanes for what works for them.
Nice and neat is a very positive podcast and I know Mike diverted from the subject but he’s not like them ya’ll that is his personal beliefs and they brought him in because he is in the space of polygamy
What an interesting and educational episode. Super illuminating. But man oh MAN do I have to scrunch my face and side-eye anyone who uses the "logic", "Humans are the only mammals to practice monogamy... iT's NoT iN oUr DnA" Yeah well, humans also don't go around eating their own shit, unlike many other animals. I respect his beliefs and practices as his own. If it works for you, it works for you. But that logic doe... we are sentient beings. There are a lot of things we do as humans that you don't see other creatures doing and vice versa.
This was a scary conversation lol… no judgement whatsoever, HOWEVER, can a woman have multiple partners like he does? Or is this still that misogynistic stereotypical mindset ? Yikes.. I just don’t think this guy looks at women as equal.
dang, i keep up with nice and neat every episode, but this guest guy was nottt on the level of the 3 nice and neat guys. he presents himself like he knows all and carries great wisdom but his facade crumbles when putting together what he is trying to say. our 3 hosts are great as always but this episode was so cringe bc of this guest.
OMG.. 6 min into the interview this man has not finished a thought ... went from animals, slaves, his daughters.Happiness.. divorces....No points has been made.. no question has been asked .. how you gonna do a monologue like this.. lord. People be going into peoples podcast just to talk LOL
He seems really smart but maybe too smart to where he could manipulate you so fast you’d be in this crazy relationship before you know it. I wonder if he likes to share
What’s crazy about it. And no I don’t share my women. I’m share my wealth, time, energy, protection, guidance with my women. That’s about all that I share
If done properly, any form of relationships will work. Whether it be monogamous or polygamous relationships. Different strokes for different folks. First you have to be a man of character, a man of understanding, a man who understands women intently and lastly a man of resource. IMO
I'm a black American in the US. I have 2 wives as of this year. This is standard biblical marriage. They just don't teach it. Some people will catch on.
Although I agree that polygamy is whoever’s business. Mike Rashid is very rudimentary in his ideology about this. What makes humans different from animals is humans have a high degree of cognitive emotional intelligence and communication ability that animals and mammals don’t have. Also all species have “rules” on how offspring is raised and cared for. So comparing humans to animals in terms of sex and procreation does not register and sounds ridiculous. Humans are not animals.
I very much respect and appreciate everything that was shared in this podcast... I just want to provide some perspective on some things. 1.) Women in the West are not without cause for not wanting to share. It is important to note that some women are wired in a way that allows them to share in a very intimate manner which is exactly what polygyny is it sharing in a very intimate manner... Other women are not wired that way so while I'm a very much respect the idea of polygyny I also respect the fact that it is not a good look for me as an individual and that's what those women are saying when they take issue with it. 2) Islamically, polygny is allowed but Quran states that it's impossible for a man to meet the requirements that he would need to have to truly be fair to his wives and because of this it's not a good idea for the man to marry more than one however, there are men with very strong appetites and it does allow them a honorable way to feed those appetites while not dishonoring a sister in the process. 3) people are quick to dismiss women in the West as having eurocentric values but the reality of it is is we've not been exposed to many men who can toggle between relationships in a healthy manner and because of this we know that someone is going to end up lacking or unfulfilled and we would rather exit then be apart of being the one who's unfulfilled. 4) while polygyny is the norm in other countries, women are not by default happy to be in polygamous relationships there either, many of them will tell you that they feel that their husband favors the other woman, or spends more time with the other woman etc. While they accept it because it is a norm, they have the same feelings that women in the West have they are just not as vocal about it partially because the rules are different in those countries and being too vocal could ultimately equate to death for many of them. 5) I commend the brother on the show for stating that he knows that he's not in a place to be able to be fair in a relationship right now with more than one person, it's important for a man to have emotional intelligence not just financial resources and for that I respect the gentleman greatly even though I don't feel the he dove into things in detail, but in all fairness this is a very complex topic and one hour just isn't enough to address all the layers. Overall I enjoyed it and thought that the topic was handled well. Blessings to all. Peace ☪️
Up until 1882, a married woman was the property of her husband. In 1882 the government enacted a law called The Married Women’s Property Act’ which gave women more freedom, like owning property etc… over time, women recieved more and more freedom…
I have a question for y’all @Duke @Omar @Jalon, do you think that if you hadn’t gone through your messing around stage in ur early twenties would you be loyal to one woman? Do you think that Rashid is right when he says it is men’s DNA to want to be with multiple women? Do you think it is possible for men to be in long term relationships/ marriages and not cheat ?
@@PUMPINGSHARK I'm not sure what that comment meant but the terms have different meanings. Polygamy - marriage between many peope which is illegal in the States vs Polyamoury - a romantic relationship involving multiple people. Polyamoury is legal and has a presence here while Polygamy is 'outlawed' or illegal
Mike Radshid, you're alright with me. Black women hold the power and don't use it to her best discernment. I like his political stance about actually doing research and not by watching the news as research only!!
I absolutely love the nice n neat podcast! With that said… one of the first things he said is “humans are the only ones except for penguins who practice monogamy…” As humans aren’t we supposed to be the superior species? Him making that comparison doesn’t really mean much because as human beings we’re supposed to be smarter than other mammals unless I’m not completely understanding, in that case, I apologize… just say you want more than one woman… It’s really that simple. If you wanna bring it back to biblical days, God allow that to happen for women who weren’t able to conceive their own children. Just because God allowed certain things to happen, doesn’t mean he likes it… I.e. look at this world we’re living in today, you think God like this, but he’s allowing it to come to fruition because it’s part of a much bigger plan….
You speak of God in such a personal way, as if you understand Gods intentions. You speak of God as he… all interesting.. Are you qualified to articulate Gods perspective to others? What’s it to you, how someone chooses to live thier life?
Ok my fault… I finished the conversation and second half of the conversation was much better than the first half. The first half he was way too aggressive w his words for me. But second half I started to understand where those beliefs come from 🙏🏽
As a woman I noticed how A LOT of women especially Black American women get real offended about conversations about polygamy, when a lot of these same women will lay up and have children out of wedlock. These same women will also be a side chic and have children by married men in a heartbeat. Not only that, someone being polygamous is none of anyone’s business if you are not involved in that relationship.
This is true. If we all operated with this type of radical honesty, the world would be such a better place… it’s the Eurocentric system of love that has people here triggered when this topic is bought up… It’s bizarre
You are preaching, they are talking about morale and honesty, but these women seem to prefer immorality and lies...
Add in 30% of births are not by her husband. 80% of divorces are filed by black women. Higher if they're college educated.
Okay, now flip the coin and see that the women opposite of those low standards still may come off "offended" by the topic... humans are selfish and can often be possessive, I'm not sharing my man and he should not be giving himself to anyone else
@@dynastygoddesshair6943Cook 🔥🔥🔥
i will never understand why this podcast hasn’t taken off yet 😭 it’s quality content and REAL conversations every episode!
Super Fact!
It will..
Once more men and woman start that actually looking for quality things online that feed into personal growth and not just fluff and gossip.
This man Mike basically just found away to be lustful. Don’t be fooled by this guys.
Jay Take Profits: WOW someone finally hit the nail on the head Bingo. His logic of reasoning is beyond Ridiculous when it comes to God, Morality etc…. But he like to talk to those nobody’s he have on bcuz they agree with him
Yep because he isnt basing within a religious structure.
Exactly!!!
Human beings have more female ancestors than male ancestors. Let that marinate.
That’s a weird thing to say.
As an African Man, This is just form of a relationship & it should be practiced in a righteous way
Precisely
Agreed!
He's muslim but he never once mention that being a good husband and partake in polygamy requiert to be a firm believer in Allah. He never once said that he had a conviction from Allah to be polygamist neither.That's very telling
Very!
I think the divorce rate stats mention is a little misleading..
women in other countries Eg in the global south don’t necessarily have the legal or cultural freedom to leave a marriage. Many other contributing factors IMO. Also saying humans are the only mammals who practice monogamy is... objectively false and easily disprovable :( e.g. wolves.
Great point!!
I won't lie,I'm looking for a good Woman ,that fully supports this discussion.Lets talk...🌍
The divorce rate is the lowest it has ever been especially in America.
Specifically in the African American community marriages lasted longer during slavery than they do today.
Somebody doesn't have google??!!
Male wolves are not monogamous 😂
Wolves aren't monogamous. Pairs stay together an average of 2 years. Some as ling as 9 years. Wolves live as long as 14 years, though..... so no
What Mike says about lying and cheating on your woman hit home. I was literally saying this the other day. I don’t trust any dude who cheats on his lady or lies about nut shit. You can be honest with women. Are they always gonna like it? No, maybe not but a woman of value will ALWAYS respect the fact that she can trust you enough to keep it real and reciprocate that back to you.

Man jalon was so quiet I thought bro left mid interview 😂
Jalon facial expressions are too funny
I literally forgot he was there 😂

🤣😂
His comments about “men can’t control themselves” in the workplace was incredibly irresponsible and ridiculous. That’s like saying “cashiers can’t control themselves around money, you should expect the to steal”. Grown men are perfectly capable, but because of enablement like this, they see nothing wrong with it. Sexual harassment comes in so many different forms. You’re at work to work. Continuous sexual advances is crazy. People see what they want to see and take things to far and become killers, sexual assault era, and stalkers. Considering there are such things as maternal leave and parental leave for men, advancing in your career is your business and you can pursue a promotion and get paid more. A lot of men get paid more money just because they have a penis… they did nothing better or more glorious . As someone who works in HR those particular comments annoyed the hell out of me.
Get out of your feelings 😂 he literally said “I’m not saying it’s right”. Listen to understand, instead of listening to judge

19:35 so Omar was correct a few eisodes back. This guy says he doesn’t get joy from a woman’s love. Omar said something to the notion of he doesn’t see the benefit of polygamy due to the bond, emotional taxation and feelings it takes to manage one woman. If you don’t desire love and find peace in a woman’s love and want to build in that then yeah dating multiple women is anything. You’re not even interested in what she can give you besides children.
Facts
Oh baby his argument and thinking…TOP TIER RIDICULOUS 😂 it sounded like fancy and articulate hoopla
To be fair his way of thinking is rare and only a small percentage of men can even manage to pull off what he is speaking of… So why are black women still not being made wives?
@@Mr2FlyDesmond123 I think the question is: Why aren’t the men marrying their women?
.
We both need each other..
.
So as we both become the men & women we want to be (mentally, emotionally, physically, financially etc) we should be naturally sharing our lives with each other..
.
Bringing together families is so important.. ❤️🙏🏾
Nah fr!!!
@@Mr2FlyDesmond123 it’s rare in America for. What’s common is for people to lie and cheat. Being honest about wanting multiple women is rare. Shouldn’t be though. I bet every women who publicly disagrees, will say she’s never been cheated on…. Women get cheated on so much because men aren’t comfortable telling women what they want… so they do it behind their backs…. An honest man stands on his truth and y’all get upset… fascinating
@@MikeRashidOfficial he simply said he requires honesty and morality.......some women prefer immorality and lies....smh
Our history didn't start at slavery. This was a whole lotta bs ✌🏽
Who said our history started as slavery?
@@MikeRashidOfficial You implied humanity had not been civilized long and then pointed to the fact that black people were enslaved 100 yrs ago as if us being victimized was a reflection that we were uncivilized. The whole statement was BS.
You further went on to say that was "how long people have been nice to eachother" Not true we were living peacefully long before slavery not sure where you're getting the majority of your information but its definitely not rooted in fact.

It’s actually comical how insanely incorrect he was on his statements. even just starting out with how we are one of two species to have one mate. secondly, there is sexual harassment in the workplace EVERYWHERE! There were so many things wrong. Especially the accountability on men. Honestly we can just note the fact that he, himself couldn’t successfully carry out a polygamist relationship. 🤷🏾♀️
exactly
In one now.
Haters gonna hate
Even tho i didn’t agree with most if his statements i'm glad this platform is allowing people with different way of living to tell their story and share their opinions
Y’all need to have Jidenna on the show. He has been in many a poly relationships and his perspective is soooooo much more respectable and enlightening for BOTH men and women…. 💛
Ok so y’all woke up this day and chose VIOLENCE!!
This needs a ⚠️TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️.
This man has the right to live however he chooses but there was a bit of revisionist history and remixing in his explanations.
Also, the way the guys held their tongues and just let him say controversial things - wisdom 😂
Mike Rashid is coming from a place of experience. Men think they want polygamy but really don’t understand it has it’s ups and downs. You have to be knowledgeable and be willing to deal with the good and the bad as a real man should.
First time ever seing Jalon so quiet lmfaooo😂😂😂😂
Seriously 😂😂😂
He was in the presence of a real boss alpha 🤷🏾♂️
Also the mention that its not surprising men sexually harass women in the workplace is kinda wild… men should be expected to have sexual discipline.
Get out of your feelings 😂 he literally said “I’m not saying it’s right”. Listen to understand, instead of listening to judge
@@masiomasio Where did I say he said it was right? Where did I pass judgement on him? Take your own advice.

YESSSSSSSS. Bring somebody that actually knows something! Lol
Yes cause she knows what she’s talking about and currently doing it in a marriage. This man just sounds nice.
"Men can't control themselves in the workplace" is just a fact. That comment was so obviously made to bring up the point that women need protection because simply, many men harass, like it or not. Doesn't mean women should just accept it and be passive about it, nor does it mean that men are just supposed to behave that way. Every single day I'm amazed how simple statements are ridiculously misconstrued.
It’s the facial expressions and SILENCE for me ⚰️
I like how he said he know he doesn’t NEED to have women pour into him, I like that he does know his limits and what he can take on fr. That’s mature.
We are not animals and or insects. God made us in his image. Animal where created for the earth to prosper… not for us to act like them or base our relationships off of them…..Do animals work a job??? Do animals have responsibilities???? Do animals have to learn how to read, write, drive etc… I really dislike when they make this point and compare humans to animals….. we are not animal and we should not live like them….
We actually are animals. We have animal DNA. Thats a peer reviewed genetic and scientific fact. The only thing that separates us from other animals on this planet is our neocortex.
Right like we're not superior beings 🙄 dumb af
Yessssssss thanks for saying it!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Science says we are some type of animal sorry. We eat, sleep and poop, just like animals.
I’ve only been in one relationship, though logically poly relationships with purpose make sense. Like he said, I’ve been Americanized and I’ve definitely been one to want my man to myself. However, I’m constantly taking self-inventory and working on self. I’m not for nor against poly relationships, whatever works for folks works, but I’m not necessarily closed to it.
Salute to Mike. Agree or disagree it’s a worthy conversation to be had.
And lets be honest; The women who are “upset” by what he’s saying, in most cases have nothing to worry about, because the men they deal w/ don’t have the resources or ability to pull it off and they themselves don’t qualify for the type of man that can. 😂
Facts
Duke was the funniest part of this episode 😂😂
Respectfully, self control & discipline is very attractive in a man. Especially when it’s one man with one woman, as a woman it shows that he can hold it down no matter what his fleshy desires are. That’s why a man leaves to join his wife, not wives. The kings long ago who had many wives biblically have fallen because of it, these woman worshipped other Gods. Everything these wives were doing had influence on this one man. One wasn’t enough to the flesh of man. But the to the Holy Spirit it is enough, for Adam. That is why when quantity is a priority it desensitizes the importance of quality in one person. Foundation and hierarchy is important before multiplication. Multiplication in children, not wives respectfully. 1 Corinthians 7:2
I love this dose of wisdom! ❤
Tell me which prophet in your bible wasn’t a polygamist. Quoting bible verses yet ignorant
why control something u gone naturally think about anyway
ehhh not the best but thanks for coming,
Big Mike! 😎 Dope episode, it's always refreshing to have different perspectives in the room.
I think we should be accurate in terminology with these conversations. Polygamy is a person being MARRIED* ☝🏾 to more than one person. Which in America is illegal. It is a crime called Bigamy, and has been outlawed by and in this country since the 1830s. Polyamory is being in an intimate/sexual Relationship ** ☝🏾 with more than one person. Which is what EVERYONE in these conversations are participating in or debating. If they’re in America. Peace to the N&N podcast ✌🏾
I welcome more openly polygamous men into the dating pool. It gives other men the confidence to be honest about what they want. For whatever reason, men like to deny that they too “follow the leader,” but the reality is that it’s human nature to observe the risk of another person before deciding to take the risk (or not) for ourselves. For example, if witnessing the peace of a polygamous man is what it takes for men to be upfront and honest then men need more Mike’s to represent. Simultaneously, peacefully monogamous men should be found more easily 😅
I love how the guys stayed quiet when he brought up the topic of being transgender. 😂 Could almost hear a pin drop
I hate that this conversation is starting to become very popular amongst black men.
The Eurocentric style of romance ‘monogomy’ is actually a new concept to black men… Before the transatlantic slave trade, polygamy in amongst our people where normal. Like it still is in countries that are predominantly black.
@@MikeRashidOfficial are you an ant, termite, bee, or a hornet?
@@jaajjerm Exactly I’ll like to hear his answer on this one.
Diallo Smith: Exactly it’s Ridiculous and we have people like Mike that have Daughters pushing this Foolishness. Lot of things in this world is becoming normal in other words popular. Just bcuz something is popular don’t make it right especially morally. Same sex is popular, transgender, school shootings are popular etc… that don’t make it right I mean that’s common sense.
@@MikeRashidOfficial Not entirely true. This also is dependent on religious affiliations. Christians in carribean and Africa we were not participating in this mess lol. And Christianity is an eastern religion.
I love this podcast so much!!! But please, don’t put his ass on here ever again 😂
Jalon said a total of 10 words😂😂
he was being respectful 😂
These are his personal beliefs and whichever woman/women he can find that wanna vibe with that, thats fine, but dont speak as if this is reasonable logic. I also dont believe that the fellas (who are usually very versed in perspectives in conversations) presented much of a challenege to his views. There are many points that he was misinformed on, but I will speak on this one a lil bit. The culture of the middle eastern people (not just the women) is different because they are more duty bound not because they are perfectly ok, they just dont complain and do what is expected as their cultural norms. That whole young men cant control themselves comment was reckless and should have been checked immediately. Ok bye.
1000% agree!
Young men do need sexual discipline, they need discipline all around. I don’t know how you took that statement, but I was stating it out of protecting women. I’m extremely protective of women… If you really listen to what I said in this interview, I don’t think you’d really disagree. First of all, im speaking about my preferences. I do not think poly is for most people. I do not preach it. For a man to have that with his women, he needs to be honest, he needs to be able to take care of his women wholeheartedly and making them feel safe and secure… he needs to be a man of great resources, mentally, spiritually, emotionally and financially….
@@MikeRashidOfficialyoung men need to know they CAN control themselves...but telling them they can't will not motivate them to hold themselves accountable and to practice discipline. Hope you don't have sons.
……I’m glad I have men in my life who don’t have this mindset.😂😂 it boils down to LUST!!
Definitely! he make it sound so good and sweet just like the devil made eve eat the fruit of the forbideen tree and made seems like it was nothing because the tree had good looking fruit.
@@AngelaElikya amen sister
When I explored a polygamous relationship, it had nothing to do with lust, and everything to do with love. I loved my women enough to be 100% honest with them. I loved my women enough to take care of them in every way.. I loved my women enough to protect them…
If all parties involved are in agreement and the man can provide and protect for the women then I don't see the problem.
@@MikeRashidOfficial talk ya sh🤫 Mike 💪🏽😤💎
This was absolute nonsense.
pt1 was good intelligent talk, but I'm so glad ya'll doubled back and brought on a voice to the depth of the lifestyle and different styles of non-monogomy. great content guys!
This whole episode is wild and doesn’t make sense 🤦🏻♀️
Him being a Pisces man explained a lot, sensitive.
Facts 😂 his ego is very fragile
I swear when you leave 🥷’s to get something done, they come back with another problem. Y’all went & got this man to speak on polygamy. The same man that doesn’t want his daughters to be in a situation like that. 🤣
This sh’t right here baffles me bruh. The BS you 🥷’s continue to pull with this topic. The lack of education y’all have around this topic is crazy bruh. Stop bringing up the “Old” days. You 🥷’s stay bringing that up because it’s something you “Heard” all your life, but don’t really know what it meant back then.
There was a different type of respect back then, the true kings & queens understood the assignment & there weren’t all this hoopla over just having a another woman just because you wanna have the choice to go from 1 to the next. Most of you dudes don’t even know what it really takes to LEAD. Y’all can’t even figure out simple problems, you think you about to juggle more than 1 woman? Hang it up.
Then it’s y’all talking about what “Women” need to stop doing, this is an ongoing problem society will forever have. How about teach more boys how to protect their sexual energy, that it’s NOT cool to run through women & just because you let this backwards society raise your children to believe that they aren’t important, & that their sexual energy isn’t important, doesn’t make it okay for little boys to grow up thinking this toxic mindset.
Just as much as women’s sexual energy is important, the same goes for dudes. Y’all be wrapped up in what society has taught you, that it’s always one sided & a double standard when it comes to women & men. What 1 can do vs what the other can’t do. The typical mindset of a brainwashed human being. Stop following these ppl rules & taking it as a way of living. Your way of living doesn’t mean it should be that way.
To add, let’s stop bringing up & using nature as an excuse to sleep with multiple women. Yeah, we are human beings that practice monogamy & naturally it isn’t that way when it comes to animals. It still doesn’t make it politically correct to say this is how we all should be living. Not everyone wants to deal with multiple women, not all of us want to live directly like nature itself when it comes to the true nature of animals.
This is nothing more than a basic mindset that people stay using to justify why they want more than one woman, or should I say, a reason to say “That’s how we should be living” NO sir, you can live that way. What works for you, is for you. & what works for someone else is for someone else. People get to wrapped up in trying to make & pass this sh’t off as facts. Not everything is facts, & not everything is meant to be taken literal.
You people struggle with discipline , you can’t expect to elevate to the next level if you can’t overcome the natural thing that was instilled in all of us, except it takes some ppl longer than others not conquer it. While there are some that are just naturally disciplined & don’t need to do all the extra sh’t to master it. This applies to everything else that you struggle with, & instead of doing better & overcoming the thing’s god instilled in you to overcome. You find ways to go around it & then wrap it up in a truth that you try to dissect with the BS you spew.
At the end of the day rather you spray perfume on a pile of sh’t. It’s still sh’t at the end of the day, rather or not you are unable to control yourself, it doesn’t make you any better than before. You’re not facing the thing’s you need to face in order to evolve in area’s that you know you need to evolve in. Too many of y’all be weak out here & try to smash everything you see & wonder why your life be in shambles. Your focus is off, & your not aligned with the purpose god put you here for. You gotta 1st be honest with yourself about the thing’s you want, & the thing’s you want to be better in. Then actively work on those thing’s & challenge yourself more each time.
Too many dudes be looking at the external of something & seeing multiple women as one big orgy party. In this day & age it will never workout that way no matter what information you spew out in the world. These dudes don’t understand what respect is, loyalty, communication, & everything else that it takes to have a long healthy relationship with 1 woman. So what the F these 🥷’s going to do with multiple? Save it. 🤣
he never said he didnt want his daughters doing itp
@@saintfreezy6914 Lol, all that, & the first thing you write is something about his daughters. You are the problem in this world. 🥷
I am a women who comes from a Muslim family, raised Muslim. Believe me these women ARE NOT happy. I’ve seen it first hand, they are jealous, and territorial. I can tell you many situations of men with multiple wives. For instance, the wives of the Iman, not liking each other and arguing, because of what, the man. No women deep down wants to share. Also, I have friends who are poly Ig content creator, they have them same problems. It always starts off ok, but once you see what you dealing with and emotions start flaring up. It rarely works. Furthermore, women in other countries don’t have rights like women over here, in some countries women are not able to go out in public without a man. Currently, women are in the process and starting to attain rights, such being able drive a car or receiving an education. Mind you, I’ve been around Muslims my whole life, and I’ve been around many cultures and those women never tell delightful or positive stories. I have Somalian friend right now, who will tell you what these women go through and how abusive some men are over in the EAST! Women are not treated the best in a lot of those countries, they have no choice. Society looks down upon these women who are not married, less valuable. Parents send them to marry whoever. I prefer not. One man, one women for ME. This man knows he isn’t fair, stop playing!
Some of these men pick and choose what they want to follow from our ancestor, because y’all damn sure do not do everything our ancestors did. And who said that their actions were righht? Back in the day women had to depend on men, they didn’t work, so to survive she has to be with a man, so that he can provide. They had to accept anything. Women if you accept this, you may be taken care of, but one women will always lack and feel less than. Imagine having kids, working, businesses, working out, etc. When do you have time to fulfill the emotional needs of 2 different women. On top of all your other responsibilities . I rather work and be single and have my men, than to accept this
Just say I don’t have the discipline or this monogamy isn’t what I want because his arguments are not strong! It’s bias, and lacks factual evidence of this whole natural thing
i know a lot of monogamous people in the same situation so🤷🏾♂️
THANKYOU !!! PPL NEED TO START BEING TRULY HONEST ABOUT THIS TOPIC SO MANY PEOPLE LIE TO THEMSELVES
I'm married to two black queens, "Dimes" and we are very happy. Most of you women who have 2 or 3 kids by three different guys or vice versa, you already in a poly situation.

This idiot is trying to mix "love" with disrespect in his message and unintelligent women fall for it.
I definitely wouldn’t have a problem with it as long as he is an honorable man and going to be an honorable father because we were meant to multiply but granite he has to be a man of a lot of knowledge and recourses that can handle the type of legacy he’s choosing to build in the United States since we do not practice polygamy and the world and our needs to live has changed so much
I appreciate his perspective and insight. This is the type of polygamy that makes sense to me , it’s true that many Americans can not grasp the concept. It makes way more sense than the cheating etc that many are doing . However a lot of people still wouldn’t be able to handle it because it required discipline, communication and a lot of responsibility. Honesty is of upmost importance and the community it can build is also very important.
You can definitely LOVE someone forever lol he’s hurt it seems. Has he ever gone to counseling?!
I F with Bro on a fitness level but y’all was not expecting this conversation (per the camera when y’all move and y’all got the straightest face) like the rest of us 🥴
My thing is if the essence of polygamy is so "natural" then why does it require such explanation? and why isn't it easy to maintain? (He even said it's a lot to manage, like it takes emotional and financial strength lol) I think this is packaged lust idk.
At 19:32 He talks about how much energy and time it takes, then he goes on to say ... his life is not predicated on a woman's love. So why would you even be in any kind of relationship"at all then? Just say you want concubines and move on lmao
It’s required explanation to those who ask me about it. I don’t go around doing seminars about poly life… I teach people how to make money, and be in shape. If I’m asked a question, I’ll answer it honestly…
Overall this was another really great interview. Mike almost pissed me off 😂 but I kept listening and heard some clarity in what confused me lol Very interesting!! Thanks y’all ❤
The fact only 1/4 of this show concerned polygamy and the comments are dragging this man for his views you can tell people dont watch things throughout and THATS what’s wrong with our people
Y’all look so uninterested in what he’s saying, and just like other commenters, looks like y’all tuned him out a lot and zoned out 😂. I usually listen on Spotify, but I had to come to RUclips on this one to see the comments. Glad to see I’m not the only one thinking this is BS.
They do not feel him but they respect his opinion and I love that
Do you even understand why God said man has Dominion over animals, Gen. 1:26-31🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is so disappointing. One would look at this brother’s muscles and assume he is disciplined. However, there is much growth and maturity needed within him. The fact that he is strattling the fence is one thing. But to package it and try to feed this mess to millions is people is deplorable. I taught elementary children from a sister-wives relationship. The children are so traumatized and seeking attention and validation from a father that is spread then. Just so sad. At its core this is nothing but selfishness!
Why duke always quick to end the intro music 😂😂 okay okay okay
Oh this is fire, def. reacting to this one. Major gems.
He says what a lotta ppl would like to say but would never communicate it publicly
As a women new in Polygamy this brought more knowledge to me.❤
The most ideal man for a polygynous relationship is one who is responsible, honorable, thoughtful, caring, ambitious, and successful. Right?
After watching this, I think a lot of women are offended by this conversation because they don't even have the ability to get that type of man for a monogamous relationship. They simply don't attract that. And that's cool!!!
Ultimately, I think people just need to stay in their lanes for what works for them.
Enjoyed this episode 54:22 ❤ I know the subscription is not for me , I love my dynamic but thank you for sharing.
Nice and neat is a very positive podcast and I know Mike diverted from the subject but he’s not like them ya’ll that is his personal beliefs and they brought him in because he is in the space of polygamy
The most high wasn’t mentioned in this interview. And he should’ve been.
It’s the way Duke puts his hand up every time the theme song drop 😂
What an interesting and educational episode. Super illuminating. But man oh MAN do I have to scrunch my face and side-eye anyone who uses the "logic", "Humans are the only mammals to practice monogamy... iT's NoT iN oUr DnA" Yeah well, humans also don't go around eating their own shit, unlike many other animals. I respect his beliefs and practices as his own. If it works for you, it works for you. But that logic doe... we are sentient beings. There are a lot of things we do as humans that you don't see other creatures doing and vice versa.
This was a scary conversation lol… no judgement whatsoever, HOWEVER, can a woman have multiple partners like he does?
Or is this still that misogynistic stereotypical mindset ? Yikes..
I just don’t think this guy looks at women as equal.
no because a women wont know who the father is and multiple men will want to lead and itll be chaos
dang, i keep up with nice and neat every episode, but this guest guy was nottt on the level of the 3 nice and neat guys. he presents himself like he knows all and carries great wisdom but his facade crumbles when putting together what he is trying to say. our 3 hosts are great as always but this episode was so cringe bc of this guest.
💯
💯 My face was screwed up the whole way through smdh 🤦🏾♀️
OMG.. 6 min into the interview this man has not finished a thought ... went from animals, slaves, his daughters.Happiness.. divorces....No points has been made.. no question has been asked .. how you gonna do a monologue like this.. lord. People be going into peoples podcast just to talk LOL
Questionable episode…
He seems really smart but maybe too smart to where he could manipulate you so fast you’d be in this crazy relationship before you know it. I wonder if he likes to share
What’s crazy about it. And no I don’t share my women. I’m share my wealth, time, energy, protection, guidance with my women. That’s about all that I share
Need these conversations.
47:41 WOWWWWWWW!!!!! not i love my ppl… while incorporating identity politics & victim blaming?!
This! Like yikes. Saw his post on why men date younger women , and that told me all I needed to know. Interesting man though
I really appreciated this episode 🤝🏾💯
Lol I swear he sounded much more educated on the subject in Fresh and Fit podcast
I have to be honest, he’s hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
If done properly, any form of relationships will work. Whether it be monogamous or polygamous relationships. Different strokes for different folks. First you have to be a man of character, a man of understanding, a man who understands women intently and lastly a man of resource. IMO
I'm a black American in the US. I have 2 wives as of this year. This is standard biblical marriage. They just don't teach it. Some people will catch on.
Although I agree that polygamy is whoever’s business. Mike Rashid is very rudimentary in his ideology about this. What makes humans different from animals is humans have a high degree of cognitive emotional intelligence and communication ability that animals and mammals don’t have. Also all species have “rules” on how offspring is raised and cared for. So comparing humans to animals in terms of sex and procreation does not register and sounds ridiculous. Humans are not animals.
The Bible mentions King David as "a man after God's own heart"...he had eight wives.
I very much respect and appreciate everything that was shared in this podcast... I just want to provide some perspective on some things.
1.) Women in the West are not without cause for not wanting to share. It is important to note that some women are wired in a way that allows them to share in a very intimate manner which is exactly what polygyny is it sharing in a very intimate manner... Other women are not wired that way so while I'm a very much respect the idea of polygyny I also respect the fact that it is not a good look for me as an individual and that's what those women are saying when they take issue with it.
2) Islamically, polygny is allowed but Quran states that it's impossible for a man to meet the requirements that he would need to have to truly be fair to his wives and because of this it's not a good idea for the man to marry more than one however, there are men with very strong appetites and it does allow them a honorable way to feed those appetites while not dishonoring a sister in the process.
3) people are quick to dismiss women in the West as having eurocentric values but the reality of it is is we've not been exposed to many men who can toggle between relationships in a healthy manner and because of this we know that someone is going to end up lacking or unfulfilled and we would rather exit then be apart of being the one who's unfulfilled.
4) while polygyny is the norm in other countries, women are not by default happy to be in polygamous relationships there either, many of them will tell you that they feel that their husband favors the other woman, or spends more time with the other woman etc. While they accept it because it is a norm, they have the same feelings that women in the West have they are just not as vocal about it partially because the rules are different in those countries and being too vocal could ultimately equate to death for many of them.
5) I commend the brother on the show for stating that he knows that he's not in a place to be able to be fair in a relationship right now with more than one person, it's important for a man to have emotional intelligence not just financial resources and for that I respect the gentleman greatly even though I don't feel the he dove into things in detail, but in all fairness this is a very complex topic and one hour just isn't enough to address all the layers.
Overall I enjoyed it and thought that the topic was handled well. Blessings to all. Peace ☪️
I really liked this conversation
Not married. Looking to marry and have an open relationship. Need a married polygamist maybe. As he admitted it didn't work.
The first part about women were owned by men is not true i swear people love bringing up slavery when it comes to certain topics 😂
Up until 1882, a married woman was the property of her husband. In 1882 the government enacted a law called The Married Women’s Property Act’ which gave women more freedom, like owning property etc… over time, women recieved more and more freedom…
A wife was property of her husband once upon a time.
I logged off when he said the woman waiting “like a puppy dog” for him Smfh
I have a question for y’all @Duke @Omar @Jalon, do you think that if you hadn’t gone through your messing around stage in ur early twenties would you be loyal to one woman? Do you think that Rashid is right when he says it is men’s DNA to want to be with multiple women? Do you think it is possible for men to be in long term relationships/ marriages and not cheat ?
Mike Rashid is right, it's harder to be polygamous in the west/ america with our culture.
I think he meant polyamorous not polygamous.
@@yulnikita polyamory has been installed. Polygamy is installing to be misogynistic
@@PUMPINGSHARK I'm not sure what that comment meant but the terms have different meanings. Polygamy - marriage between many peope which is illegal in the States vs Polyamoury - a romantic relationship involving multiple people. Polyamoury is legal and has a presence here while Polygamy is 'outlawed' or illegal
@@yulnikita ok
Mike Radshid, you're alright with me. Black women hold the power and don't use it to her best discernment. I like his political stance about actually doing research and not by watching the news as research only!!
Jesus free him of this lifestyle
That was a dope conversation
Tf was he talking bout?
He just in a funny goofy mood. Just chatting
Not a damn thing
I love mike but bruh stick to fitness and the mental section of RUclips.
Swans are monogamous 🦢🦢
I see a lot of monogamous animals I am in nature a lot but I bet this man isn't so how would he know.
I absolutely love the nice n neat podcast! With that said… one of the first things he said is “humans are the only ones except for penguins who practice monogamy…” As humans aren’t we supposed to be the superior species? Him making that comparison doesn’t really mean much because as human beings we’re supposed to be smarter than other mammals unless I’m not completely understanding, in that case, I apologize… just say you want more than one woman… It’s really that simple. If you wanna bring it back to biblical days, God allow that to happen for women who weren’t able to conceive their own children. Just because God allowed certain things to happen, doesn’t mean he likes it… I.e. look at this world we’re living in today, you think God like this, but he’s allowing it to come to fruition because it’s part of a much bigger plan….
You speak of God in such a personal way, as if you understand Gods intentions. You speak of God as he… all interesting.. Are you qualified to articulate Gods perspective to others?
What’s it to you, how someone chooses to live thier life?
This is a cool perspective .
Ok my fault… I finished the conversation and second half of the conversation was much better than the first half. The first half he was way too aggressive w his words for me. But second half I started to understand where those beliefs come from 🙏🏽
The questions asked in this interview were very thoughtful.
If this is the standard I'll subscribe.
