 Re: Polygamy in Sudan (Re: Muna Khugali)

Hello friends,
Why do educated women with economic independence accept polygamy? A female Ph.D holder told me about her own experience in marriage, she was his second wife. She was in love with her husband twenty years ago, but they could not get married at that time, she stayed single because no suitable man demanded her hand in marriage, and of course it is always the man who proposes to woman, while he married another woman. They met again when she was in her forties and when he proposed to her this time she immediately accepted. She explained that she did not mind him having another wife although she was not happy about it. She accepted because she became “old” and her chances (if any existed) in the northern Sudanese society are only limited to married men or widowers. She explained that the marriage provides her with the opportunity to get some social independence from her family, happiness with the one she loved. She could have her own home in Khartoum, even though the husband is working abroad; having a home is just like having a complete identity. She and her husband meet few times during the year. For the society and for her, a married woman has a social status that would enable her to move with “some freedom”. But she complained, because she is always the second wife, while society tolerate polygamy, they also blame the second wife for taking a man from his family!! Her economic independence and her high education were not sufficient to give her the confidence and the security to reject such a marriage, because the pressure of the customs and the society is difficult to bear. this is one example to many similar cases, other factors are coming.
we continue
