I'm always most perplexed by the "courting" of another woman in this situation. Like, how do you approach a single woman and sell the "I have three other wives and twelve kids, but I'd like to marry you" spiel?
The show just irritates me. I remember the first wife had a fling with another man and people were attacking her online for cheating. Like her husband is sleeping with 3 other women so I mean I don't blame her for trying to find love else where. I'm sad she ended up staying with her husband. I'm sad that any of the women do. Why is it okay for the men to have multiple wives but the women can only have one husband? Just ugh.
The "man" ended up being a woman who was catfishing and blackmailing her. Sounds like a shit situation, especially for someone who was clearly incredibly lonely and looking for someone to love her. She hasn't been happy with Kody for years.
+pinkysworn yeah I'm really sad that she got catfished. It just irritated me that everyone attacked her online for "cheating" when her husband has been sleeping for other women for years. Like give the woman a break, I can tell she has such an unhappy marriage with him and my heart just breaks for her.
Because, that is the norms in their religion? They don't want other husbands. If they want other husbands they can leave that religion and go to one that allows it, or no religion at all? People can be polyandrous, it is about whether you actually WANT to be.
Polyandry (one wife, multiple husbands.) Polygamy is one husband, multiple wives and polyamory is a mixed bag of multiples. Polyamory arrangements have been, historically, very fluid (people come and go, no fixed commitment.) Polyandry rarely works (men just can't share - unless they are gay and spelling each other.) There are nonreligious polygamous families (women join because one wants to be a stay at home mom, one wants to be a professional but also have children who have family care and one doesn't want to have children but likes having children under foot when she is home from work - everybody brings mutual support to each other and the man is there basically because he doesn't require batteries.)
+rosieoutlook With all due respect, you are right about polyamory but wrong about polygamy. To a native Greek speaker like me the differences are pretty obvious. Polygamy refers to marriage with more than one spouse regardless of sex. The word in Greek means literally "multiple marriages". While polyandry means "multiple men/husbands" and refers to the practice of marriage to more than one man. Polygyny is the word for marriage to more than one woman and, you guessed it, the literal translation is "multiple women/wifes".
A budget Owen Wilson that was pulled out of the trash and lightly dusted off after having been put washed by hand, hand wrung dry, put out for the dogs, beaten against the side of a house and put back down again.
Fun fact: While the title uses the word "wives", the male subject is only actually legally married to 1 female on this show as both US federal law in the form of the Edmunds-Tucker Act and the state constitution of Utah expressly ban multiple, concurrent marriages.
+Nadia Mohamed If I recall correctly, they got off because he's not technically trying to legally marry more than one woman. I think they left Utah more because of a bit of a flaming pitchfork sort of situation.
Fun Fact #2: There's a bit of a legal loophole in Saskatchewan provincial law that overrides the federal marriage laws (which prohibit polygamy), so technically you can be legally married to more than one person at a time here.
+pinkysworn Wasn't it too that some people were wondering if they were receiving federal aide like food stamps? If not them I've heard that criticism for the rest of the community. It also makes me think of how some are trying to use the 1978 ruling that allowed Peyote to be legal as long as it was during religious ceremonies BECAUSE it was part of a "religious doctrine" or what have you. Some in the FLDS have expressed interest in using that ruling as allowing for an exception since it's part of their religious beliefs. But pretty much no expert thinks they stand a chance trying to use that argument. They probably will never win.
They can't, they are FLDS. Mormon doctrine only allows a man to have multiple wives. They do this bc they believe they will be exalted to gods themselves.
I think because they don't always try to be politically correct. Don't get me wrong - I'm all for political correctness, but sometimes you want to be able to watch a string of videos where people are just blunt and honest, and everyone in the comments talks shit about the contributors or the subject matter like you get on Buzzfeed. Facts. kind of has the right idea in maybe just staying mainly with reaction videos and minimal social issue videos. Like their video in support of gay marriage in Ireland is one of a few like that. So less chances to get people pissed off. Most of the time.
I get what you're saying but sooner rather than later, Facts will go the same way. And the reason is this: people like the identity-political content. It's the reason why BuzzFeed over took College Humour despite beginning around the same time with similar content ideas. BuzzFeed gets billions of views per month, because people like their political stuff. Even REACT incorporates political content into their videos. People want to connect much deeper than a 5 minute video on "15 reasons we're laughing at this person's hoarder addiction on TLC". The left leaning multimdeium media empire is here to stay, so if you don't like, it there are other places online you can hang out. And enjoy Facts in its early days while they last.
+Ra Fie I don't know...It's possible, but there are some slight cultural/societal differences even between countries like America and Great Britain. If it does change, it'll probably take a decent amount of time.
+Magick O'Daly That's what it used to stand for. Probably ten years ago they stopped putting "The Learning Channel" underneath TLC. I remember when they had actual content you could learn from. My favorite show was one where they would show actual surgeries. Pretty neat stuff.
Omg I thought I was the only one wondering what happened to TLC. Since the Duggars and Gosslins rolled out onto the scene I wasn't even sure if I just imagined that TLC was once upon a time actually informative and interesting.
The comments the guys and gals were making, made me double over in laughter. Especially that last one. I wish I could meet these lovely people in person. I'd have a ball.
oh my god that Cody guy from the show is insufferable.. how the hell did he get married once let alone 3 at the same time? these women could've done so much better than him
He did not marry 3 at the same time. He married over the course of years. He IS married to more than one woman at the same time, but that is a different thing than GETTING married to more than one woman at the same time.
I absolutely love you guys. Your reaction videos always make me laugh. Being in the military it’s nice to find something on RUclips that isn’t so mundane and incredibly hilarious. Yes I’m addicted to this channel.
As long as the relationships are between consenting adults I don't give a rat's ass what they do, it's their life to live not mine. If you drag youngsters into it that's another story.
Haven't watched yet but I'm so happy this is a thing. I watched this show recently and instantly thought it would make a great episode for this segment.
In Texas we would call Mr. Brown a Hog Hunter. Lol, love the reactions that the Irish have during this episode. Keep it up and you will probably need a few pints to forget seeing that show.
There's nothing to enforce. There's no law against living with and having kids with multiple women. Adultery laws would be thrown out as unconstitutional if they tried to enforce any that did exist.
+Steven Clark Actually in states that recognize common law marriage, like Utah apparently, it is illegal to live with more than one woman, and you DO get arrested for it. They were under investigation for polygamy when this show began, and they talk about how many families they saw get split up and how secret the polygamist culture has to be there because of it. That was why they had to move to Las Vegas in the 2nd season.
Matthew Thompson Nope, but being corrected on something that a 3rd grader could research in 10 seconds gets old. Polygamy, the act of marrying (as in legal marriage) more then one person is illegal.
Fundamentalist Mormonism. Regular Mormons think this crap is weird too. I have a lot of Mormon In-Laws (they're sad I won't be joining them in the same after life) and none of them are part of the Fundamentalist branch. Some of the nicest Christians I've ever met.
This is still in the mainstream Mormon doctrine. The difference is they will practice polygamy in the afterlife. The FLDS just don't accept the revelation from the SLC mormons that ended polygamy on earth. Btw, Mormons aren't Christian. They say they are, but they have their own definition of what it means. Basically they believe the Bible is not translated correctly, that they have a correct revelation of true Christianity & they don't believe Jesus is God....so no, they dont follow the orthodox definition of Christianity..
Ah good old TLC. Where practices from other cultures or from more primitive time periods are considered irresponsible at best and barbaric at worst are just considered quirky when applied to white Americans who can afford large homes! Give em a TV show!
Facts, Facts, Facts...you have let us down!!! Why is Ryan not in this video??? Nonetheless, I loved Dermot's comment-some men collect stamps, others collect wives!
I don't have a problem with polygamy for the most part (although I think it does deserve careful consideration) but what I do have a problem with is that I do not think it would be okay for any of those wives to get another husband.
Romana Amatucci you misunderstood me dude, I said (or at least tried to) that I didn't think it wouldn't be okay for _them_ - as in they wouldn't approve if any of them got another husband. That's not how _I_ feel about it - the problem I have with it is that I think that the women should be allowed another husband too, like the men are allowed additional wives.
There's been cases of women marrying several brothers for the purpose of keeping the land from constantly being divided up (this is in the Himalayas). But this is an economic thing so I can't see this happening else where since the issue of 'who's the father?' would probably be a problem for many....
Hey, nothing wrong with everybody being aware and honest and happy with the situation, that's fine...But how does he have time to date another woman when he already has three relationships and an army of children to attend to? Something tells me someone isn't pulling his weight.
Conservative? The Irish people voted for marriage equality in a referendum where the people actually voted and not their officials. That's pretty liberal to me, which is good.
Ireland has always been more pagan than Catholic. Religion is nearly extinct in the country. Even when we were Catholic there's a reason why we had/have massive families.
I guess I've always thought of Ireland as VERY Catholic, which is why I was shocked at the Facts gang's attitudes. I appreciate the gentle correction. :)
oh my goodness, my mom and I met this guy once, and he was so creepy. something about him was so off. He was acting so weird around my mom. (This was years ago, so I had no idea what was going on. Now that I think about it I think he was flirting.) Something about this man is just terrifying. Also this guy is not a Mormon. I think he is FLDS which is like a break off of the LDS church. These guys kept the polygamy, and follow someone else. Anyways creepy. He freaks me out.
They follow some president in their distinct sect of Mormonism. I think this particular group is in the Apostolic_United_Brethren. They do this bc of a doctrine that JSmith & BYoung gave about polygamy. The mainstream LDS (mormon) church doesnt practice it, even though it is still in their doctrine & they are silent about if the practice will be in place in the afterlife. In essence all these groups including the mainstream group believe that you have to be married in order to reach the highest level of heaven. Their entire doctrine has many conflicts with the Bible. No body outside their religion considers them Christian.
+JrJr Diablo interesting thank you. I've seen a few documentaries on the flds and the Mormon church and I was curious about this family as they don't follow some of the things I've seen on there.
i love marvel i thank the apeal is that they can do anything on a ranch. you canset off explosivs or shoot 6 inch pesis of aluminium with a 50 caniber rifle from hafe a mile away. and many outher things that wouldnt be permitted in a flat.
I'm atheist, but if people immediately give you the attitude because they think the "Sister Wives" is representative of everyone - they got a few screws loose. I study religion even though I absolutely have never believed in it, but the FLDS is far smaller than people seem to realize sometimes. And complaining that it was once official doctrine...Well nearly every denomination of Christianity has had something in their doctrine they'd rather not talk about. Kind of lying insisting otherwise. I can't condone slapping someone upside the head (assault charges are a non-no), but perhaps mentally imagining slapping them up the head will suffice. And if other atheists act like asses - I apologize. Unless someone is being horrid to me (like the religious person who said I should be put to death...) I generally see no reason to be asses about the whole thing.
+Kimberly Haines Funny you say this because usually the first thing out of someones mouth upon realizing you are/were Mormon is "how many wives are part of the family?" Polygamy has never been answered to me properly, along with many other questions. I can't label myself into one category of belief system. I am learning as I move through life. I choose to be kind and happy. I try to help others along my path. I won't degrade someone for their belief system. I also do not feel ones beliefs should be forced upon another. Logic to always be used. I do appreciate the fact that this video is light hearted. Life is too short not to laugh.
+Danell Parkhurst You don't get that as much here, since our city has a really big Mormon population even though we're in the middle of California. I rarely hear anyone say that even as a joke. But I have a good number of friends kind of like you. They believe in a higher power, but can't agree with organized religion, and so they simply say they are "spiritual" - but they're just as happy as my friends that go to church. I do wonder if some people are trying to be funny, and/or witty with the wives question. Or maybe they're just a fucking idiot...
Yeah< I grew up in Florida. Not many Mormons out there. Now I live in Idaho. Tons here. So the Polygamy subject is not brought up much here. I am not even sure I would call myself "Spiritual". I am just very against overbearing Patriarchy.
+Danell Parkhurst And that patriarchy is always more interesting I feel when it crops up in religion. Like in Catholicism - though I'm one of those who feel they should follow the custom of the Anglican (and even Eastern Orthodox to some degree) Church allowing marriage for priests. Relegating women to pretty much just nuns (and saints), and other issues, isn't exactly helping. I think the patriarchy still in many religions is what might be turning some away.
Furisca Fynn If you watched the show you'd see how messed up their relationship is. It's not about mutual happiness, it's all about making Cody happy. Oh and the wives definitely cannot have another relationship of their own, Cody says he'd get too "jealous" 🙄
If all party members are okay with it, who am I to judge? Thing is I hate seeing people who supposedly support this yet are quick to attack a woman if she tried to do the same thing.
Polyamory is all OK by me, as long as everyone involved is informed and consenting. The thing that weirds me out about the religious sort of polyamory/polygamy is the whole traditional thing with the multiple wives being submissive to the husband, with him being able to have multiple women when if the woman so much as looked at another man they would be cheating. If they're happy like this then fine, but I feel like there's a big difference between religious and non-religious polyamory.
Their daughters are usually married off to cousins and uncles , typically between 14-18. But I guess as long as they're happy with pedophile husbands that's all that matters eh?
+Hallie B. Yea I'm aware of that I'm not that ignorant but that doesn't mean it's everyone that believes in polygamy, and that's why I said legal and consenting. If they're not hurting anyone, why pass judgement? It's non of you business anyway. And please read correctly before commenting.
+Nadia Mohamed I'm aware I just don't like to pass judgement on anyone. As long as they're happy and not hurting themselves or anyone else I think it's fine.
Is it sad that all that went through my head was “Single he told me single my ass not only was he married but he had 6 wife’s one of those Mormons you know”
he has more wives than I have friends
That is sad, he has the same amount of wives as I have friends though
same lol
same here
ME TOO 🤣
Leather guy and Long hair together. Perfect!
power couple
A match made for RUclips.
a match made in heaven
It is strange that they generally don't say everyone's names. Even the React channel gives first names.
+Anton Chigurh Same!!! Lol. And I love that they're partnered in this video.
"At what stage does this become a cult?" I wasn't prepared for this shocking truth.
I'm always most perplexed by the "courting" of another woman in this situation. Like, how do you approach a single woman and sell the "I have three other wives and twelve kids, but I'd like to marry you" spiel?
They're all from the same type of community.
blows my mind.
"...One for every day of the week. Do Thursdays work for you?"
Pretty sure only Alan Rickman could have gotten away with a line like that.
And he's incredibly homely.. I mean he's not the only man in town -any one of those women could have done much better than him..
The show just irritates me. I remember the first wife had a fling with another man and people were attacking her online for cheating.

Why is it okay for the men to have multiple wives but the women can only have one husband? Just ugh.
The "man" ended up being a woman who was catfishing and blackmailing her. Sounds like a shit situation, especially for someone who was clearly incredibly lonely and looking for someone to love her. She hasn't been happy with Kody for years.
+pinkysworn yeah I'm really sad that she got catfished. It just irritated me that everyone attacked her online for "cheating" when her husband has been sleeping for other women for years.

It's not ok, they're all fucked in the head.
Because, that is the norms in their religion? They don't want other husbands. If they want other husbands they can leave that religion and go to one that allows it, or no religion at all? People can be polyandrous, it is about whether you actually WANT to be.
Because it's the religion they chose to follow as consenting adults? It isn't everybody's cup of tea for sure, but it seems to be theirs.
The guy with the shoulder length black hair cracks me the hell up. We need more of him haha
He has his own channel now, called AreYa HavingThat :)

The husband from that show creeps me out so much. I bet people cross the street when he walks towards him on the sidewalk
When he's out with his family, of course I do. Not enough room for me on his side.
+I Boarshock Boom!
The people who don't cross the street to avoid him end up having to marry him...

Whenever I see Black Leather Guy and Long Hair guy together, I have polygamy thoughts myself...

The husband looks like a budget Owen Wilson
ROFL omg he does!
A budget Owen Wilson that accidentally thrown in the trash, pulled out and lightly dusted off.
A budget Owen Wilson that was shaved then they took the hair they shaved off and glued it back on.

That's Luke Wilson you're thinking of

That's what I thought. He can't legally marry more than one woman in America. They other ladies are side chicks I guess.
It doesn't have to be legal to use the word "wife".
+Nadia Mohamed If I recall correctly, they got off because he's not technically trying to legally marry more than one woman. I think they left Utah more because of a bit of a flaming pitchfork sort of situation.

"Three things you should never combine: relationships, religion, and stupid." Lol.
see polyamorous relationship stuff seems ok but these women should be able to have other husbands bc this isnt fair
It's fair if they voluntarily agreed to it.
Exactly. He wouldn't have it if one of his wives fell in love with another man and wanted to marry him as well.
Dear God... Who wants more than one husband? That's too much work. 😂
They can't, they are FLDS. Mormon doctrine only allows a man to have multiple wives. They do this bc they believe they will be exalted to gods themselves.
+JrJr Diablo yeah its kinda wierd lol
"When has that ever worked?! I was the third!"
Explains a lot.
I thought the exact same thing. Lol
I burst out laughing at that.

The way I laughed Lmao XD

Its not even that funny you stupid bitch.

"His specialty move is the shish kabob."
HOLY HELL YES 😂
I've watched all 8 seasons. They're a very loving family. Their kids are all really well brought up. Nothing but love for the Browns.
It's odd seeing this clip. Everyone looks so young!

+Ginger Weatherbee Mabe it's a proof that there's a shortage of sufferable bachelirs aut there...
Technically he only can marry one at a time.
He's good at finding really nice women that he can manipulate into putting up with his shit.

He did not marry 3 at the same time. He married over the course of years. He IS married to more than one woman at the same time, but that is a different thing than GETTING married to more than one woman at the same time.

Haha!! I know what you mean! I love AlphaOmegaSin!
I THOUGHT HE WAS TOO
Last guy I expected to hear about in this comment section XD
Leopard Gecko, I kinda just fan-girled seeing your username commenting on a video I also watched! 💕
I absolutely love you guys. Your reaction videos always make me laugh. Being in the military it’s nice to find something on RUclips that isn’t so mundane and incredibly hilarious. Yes I’m addicted to this channel.
In these scenarios love is only multiplied for the single man marrying the 6 wives, love is divided for the 6 wives and their children.
The Husband is about to go on a journey to catch all 151 and become the league champion.
This comment killed me. like, funniest shit I've read all day! Which wife is Pikachu??
his first one obviously
React to "bad girls club" that would be hilarious for them to see lol
Especially the Tanisha moment, "I didn't get no sleep cause of ya'll. You ain't get no sleep cause of me!"

YESSSSSS 😂😂
YESSSSSS 😂😂
The guy at the end that said "His special move is the shish kabob" is my absolute favorite person!

Oh, ive never heard of a kabob.
+Ida128 I'm not 100% sure though I may be wrong on that
+Nadia Mohamed thanks :)
Well it could be worse. Instead of marrying three grown women. He could be one of those Mormon guys who marries three 12 year old girls.
Thank you! Exactly!
As long as the relationships are between consenting adults I don't give a rat's ass what they do, it's their life to live not mine. If you drag youngsters into it that's another story.
He might if he thought he could get away with it on some sort of religious grounds.
exactly!
Also, he's not a Mormon. The mormon church does not condone polygamy. He's FLDS
Have them react to 'Chrisley Knows Best'
yassssssssssss
yas yas yass
YES
Yes, please! I love that show.
i stopped watching Chrisley, has he come out of the closet yet?
2:31 "i was the third one" made me LMFAO
Haven't watched yet but I'm so happy this is a thing. I watched this show recently and instantly thought it would make a great episode for this segment.
"His favorite move is the sish kabob" I was laughing so hard
Even they learned that TLC have shitty shows.
"He's a shitlet" gotta be my favorite part!
In Texas we would call Mr. Brown a Hog Hunter. Lol, love the reactions that the Irish have during this episode. Keep it up and you will probably need a few pints to forget seeing that show.
Polygamy is illegal in the US. However general its not enforced much like adultery, but only one of the marriages will be recognized legally.
There's nothing to enforce. There's no law against living with and having kids with multiple women. Adultery laws would be thrown out as unconstitutional if they tried to enforce any that did exist.
+Steven Clark Actually in states that recognize common law marriage, like Utah apparently, it is illegal to live with more than one woman, and you DO get arrested for it. They were under investigation for polygamy when this show began, and they talk about how many families they saw get split up and how secret the polygamist culture has to be there because of it. That was why they had to move to Las Vegas in the 2nd season.
Steven Clark Actually federal law prohibits it. Maybe do literally a 30 second google search before running your mouth.
Richard calm dooown sheesh one might think you were insecure about your answer
Matthew Thompson Nope, but being corrected on something that a 3rd grader could research in 10 seconds gets old. Polygamy, the act of marrying (as in legal marriage) more then one person is illegal.
"You never call your wife #2! I don't care how many you have!" LMFAO! 😂😂😂
Can't wait for your collab with the Irish drag Queens.
" *Cody? a child's name* " (Irish accent) .. I was dead.
WHY would any woman agree to that?
As the Irish saying goes; 'It takes all sorts'.
They're religious
they're brainwashed into thinking it's great. recently though I think he divorced his first wife so he could marry the latest
Fundamentalist Mormonism. Regular Mormons think this crap is weird too. I have a lot of Mormon In-Laws (they're sad I won't be joining them in the same after life) and none of them are part of the Fundamentalist branch. Some of the nicest Christians I've ever met.
This is still in the mainstream Mormon doctrine. The difference is they will practice polygamy in the afterlife. The FLDS just don't accept the revelation from the SLC mormons that ended polygamy on earth. Btw, Mormons aren't Christian. They say they are, but they have their own definition of what it means. Basically they believe the Bible is not translated correctly, that they have a correct revelation of true Christianity & they don't believe Jesus is God....so no, they dont follow the orthodox definition of Christianity..
this is my favourite facts video
this is my favourite youtube channel, i s2g
I hear yar Irish . You guys rock . Class act . This show you watched is crazy . Rock on !.
I'm still trying to figure out how they can be in such a public polygamous marriage and NOT GO TO COURT
IT'S ILLEGAL HERE
because of this video i tracked it down a watched all of it i love this show now thanks
Ah good old TLC. Where practices from other cultures or from more primitive time periods are considered irresponsible at best and barbaric at worst are just considered quirky when applied to white Americans who can afford large homes! Give em a TV show!
One of the most enjoyable videos so far. :)
Facts, Facts, Facts...you have let us down!!! Why is Ryan not in this video??? Nonetheless, I loved Dermot's comment-some men collect stamps, others collect wives!
I've never seem this show but I loved the show Big Love.
I don't have a problem with polygamy for the most part (although I think it does deserve careful consideration) but what I do have a problem with is that I do not think it would be okay for any of those wives to get another husband.
so you think the guy should be the axis of the polygamous relationship and the women don't have any say on who they can introduce to it?
Romana Amatucci you misunderstood me dude, I said (or at least tried to) that I didn't think it wouldn't be okay for _them_ - as in they wouldn't approve if any of them got another husband. That's not how _I_ feel about it - the problem I have with it is that I think that the women should be allowed another husband too, like the men are allowed additional wives.
"3 things you should never have : relationship, religion and stupid" hhahahahhahahaha preach🙌🏽
I wanna see his show, but with genders reversed!
There will be polyamorous relationships out there with one woman and several men, but they're not a religious thing like this is
+aim-to-misbehave because in religion women are second class citizens.
Porn?
She'd just be called a slut and disowned by society... Because that's right... Boo.
There's been cases of women marrying several brothers for the purpose of keeping the land from constantly being divided up (this is in the Himalayas). But this is an economic thing so I can't see this happening else where since the issue of 'who's the father?' would probably be a problem for many....
"Never call your wife number two, I don't care how many you have!" XD
That long haired dude is my sprit animal :3
+Nadia Mohamed Both. Both is good.
+Kimberly Haines agreed
"Like at what stage does this become a cult" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hey, nothing wrong with everybody being aware and honest and happy with the situation, that's fine...But how does he have time to date another woman when he already has three relationships and an army of children to attend to? Something tells me someone isn't pulling his weight.
"His da was definitely shlupin' it to some other beour" is probably the most Dublin thing ever said on this channel
I honestly really love their attitudes towards polygamy. It's very refreshing, especially coming from a conservative, Catholic society. :D
Conservative? The Irish people voted for marriage equality in a referendum where the people actually voted and not their officials. That's pretty liberal to me, which is good.
Ireland has always been more pagan than Catholic. Religion is nearly extinct in the country. Even when we were Catholic there's a reason why we had/have massive families.
I guess I've always thought of Ireland as VERY Catholic, which is why I was shocked at the Facts gang's attitudes. I appreciate the gentle correction. :)
seeing paul go "my ma has six sisters!" while you know what th show is actually about it EVERYTHING
I have never even seen sister wives. I watched this for the guy with long hair, beard and blue shirt. My god, he makes me feel things.
My two favorite (Paul and Leather Jacket Guy) together! I just might explode with joy.
"I think love should be multiplied, not divided". Right...if you're a man. All the wives are expected to be faithful. what's in it for them?
"At what stage does this become a cult?" At the beginning.
oh my goodness, my mom and I met this guy once, and he was so creepy. something about him was so off.
He was acting so weird around my mom. (This was years ago, so I had no idea what was going on. Now that I think about it I think he was flirting.)
Something about this man is just terrifying.
Also this guy is not a Mormon. I think he is FLDS which is like a break off of the LDS church. These guys kept the polygamy, and follow someone else.
Anyways creepy. He freaks me out.
Who do they follow?
They follow some president in their distinct sect of Mormonism. I think this particular group is in the Apostolic_United_Brethren. They do this bc of a doctrine that JSmith & BYoung gave about polygamy. The mainstream LDS (mormon) church doesnt practice it, even though it is still in their doctrine & they are silent about if the practice will be in place in the afterlife. In essence all these groups including the mainstream group believe that you have to be married in order to reach the highest level of heaven. Their entire doctrine has many conflicts with the Bible. No body outside their religion considers them Christian.
+JrJr Diablo interesting thank you. I've seen a few documentaries on the flds and the Mormon church and I was curious about this family as they don't follow some of the things I've seen on there.
actually just a little fact he got kicked out of the flds Church for lets say a few *questionable* acts
He’s not FLDS he’s a break off of that because they don’t believe what Warren Jeffs did was right.
I don't understand why Irish people are so funny. They just have a natural talent for it and it's super fun.
Their reactions looool
Well done on half a million guys!!
What about brother husbands though...
"AT WHAT STAGE DOES THIS BECOME A CULT?" HAHAHAHAHA! 😂😂😂😒🙄...That dude read my mind!
irish people watch demolition ranch.
yes!
And Vet Ranch!!
AND Off The Ranch
rcove I'm not trying to insult anyone but what is it with Americans and their ranch shows.
i love marvel
i thank the apeal is that they can do anything on a ranch. you canset off explosivs or shoot 6 inch pesis of aluminium with a 50 caniber rifle from hafe a mile away. and many outher things that wouldnt be permitted in a flat.
" shish kabob" I'm dead
Where's Curley gone recently.
Yeah where the hell is curly?
ikr
This is the best one yet
he now has a forth wife and a new show
What new show? Did I miss something?
My favorite pairing ever! Keep Trent Reznor dude and long haired dude together for more things!
This is one of the many reasons I do not claim to be Mormon any longer let alone Christian.
I'm atheist, but if people immediately give you the attitude because they think the "Sister Wives" is representative of everyone - they got a few screws loose. I study religion even though I absolutely have never believed in it, but the FLDS is far smaller than people seem to realize sometimes. And complaining that it was once official doctrine...Well nearly every denomination of Christianity has had something in their doctrine they'd rather not talk about. Kind of lying insisting otherwise. I can't condone slapping someone upside the head (assault charges are a non-no), but perhaps mentally imagining slapping them up the head will suffice. And if other atheists act like asses - I apologize. Unless someone is being horrid to me (like the religious person who said I should be put to death...) I generally see no reason to be asses about the whole thing.
+Kimberly Haines Funny you say this because usually the first thing out of someones mouth upon realizing you are/were Mormon is "how many wives are part of the family?" Polygamy has never been answered to me properly, along with many other questions. I can't label myself into one category of belief system. I am learning as I move through life. I choose to be kind and happy. I try to help others along my path. I won't degrade someone for their belief system. I also do not feel ones beliefs should be forced upon another. Logic to always be used. I do appreciate the fact that this video is light hearted. Life is too short not to laugh.
+Danell Parkhurst You don't get that as much here, since our city has a really big Mormon population even though we're in the middle of California. I rarely hear anyone say that even as a joke. But I have a good number of friends kind of like you. They believe in a higher power, but can't agree with organized religion, and so they simply say they are "spiritual" - but they're just as happy as my friends that go to church.
I do wonder if some people are trying to be funny, and/or witty with the wives question. Or maybe they're just a fucking idiot...
Yeah< I grew up in Florida. Not many Mormons out there. Now I live in Idaho. Tons here. So the Polygamy subject is not brought up much here. I am not even sure I would call myself "Spiritual". I am just very against overbearing Patriarchy.
+Danell Parkhurst And that patriarchy is always more interesting I feel when it crops up in religion. Like in Catholicism - though I'm one of those who feel they should follow the custom of the Anglican (and even Eastern Orthodox to some degree) Church allowing marriage for priests. Relegating women to pretty much just nuns (and saints), and other issues, isn't exactly helping. I think the patriarchy still in many religions is what might be turning some away.
i love these people .I hav always dreamt of going to ireland cause its beautiful and i hav read so much abt it now i know the ppl are also amazing. :D
The guy in the jacket?
Furisca Fynn If you watched the show you'd see how messed up their relationship is. It's not about mutual happiness, it's all about making Cody happy. Oh and the wives definitely cannot have another relationship of their own, Cody says he'd get too "jealous" 🙄
Why am I not surprised?! The guy seems a bit of a creep. Doesn't shock me he's a selfish cowboy too.
Love this channel soo much
So if he thinks love should be multiplied then why don't his wives have other husbands?
yea hah why would any woman be a morman
"Cody, a child's name."
Shlippin' into some other beour 👌🏾👌🏾😂
"i think hes a bit of a player"
"oh ya think??!! hes got 70 wives " 😂😂😂 lmao
Am I the only one who thinks the guy in the leather looks like Sirius Black
Finally heard the word "beore" in one of these videos!
oh snap. This video has both long haired guys.
Omg this series is hilarious 👌🏻😂
Isn't polygamy illegal in all states?
It is. But it happens anyway.
It is, but it's not a felony in most states except Utah. That's why they moved to Nevada, so they wouldn't be in prison for being polygamists.
LMAOOOOOOO
LJG: They say, "oh you are having troubles with two kids, have another one!! When is that ever worked out??? I WAS THE THIRD"
If all party members are okay with it, who am I to judge? Thing is I hate seeing people who supposedly support this yet are quick to attack a woman if she tried to do the same thing.
Polyamory is all OK by me, as long as everyone involved is informed and consenting. The thing that weirds me out about the religious sort of polyamory/polygamy is the whole traditional thing with the multiple wives being submissive to the husband, with him being able to have multiple women when if the woman so much as looked at another man they would be cheating. If they're happy like this then fine, but I feel like there's a big difference between religious and non-religious polyamory.
"HIS SPECIAL MOVE IS THE SHISHKABOB!" HAHAHAHAHA! 😂😂😂...EEEEEWWWWW! 😳😱😝
See nothing, wrong with it as long as everyone is legal and consenting. You do you, whatever make you happy.
Their daughters are usually married off to cousins and uncles , typically between 14-18. But I guess as long as they're happy with pedophile husbands that's all that matters eh?
+Hallie B. Yea I'm aware of that I'm not that ignorant but that doesn't mean it's everyone that believes in polygamy, and that's why I said legal and consenting. If they're not hurting anyone, why pass judgement? It's non of you business anyway. And please read correctly before commenting.
+Nadia Mohamed I'm aware I just don't like to pass judgement on anyone. As long as they're happy and not hurting themselves or anyone else I think it's fine.
Is it sad that all that went through my head was
“Single he told me single my ass not only was he married but he had 6 wife’s one of those Mormons you know”
