The attorney Charles Adams has recently written two articles on polygamy (article 1, article 2) . The articles cover the history of polygamy and its current revival. The articles are informative and do not pull any punches. They provide the history and thinking behind this behavior. These are good articles for those wondering “How could they do that?” The articles also go into mistresses and concubines.

Although people often mention adultery, it is still surrounded with misconceptions. Hollywood and the porn movie world have made affairs look like something that is ‘ordinary’ and acceptable. They have presented it as an event that is part of everyday life. The reality is that it is filled with pain, fear, and rejection. It is not a recreational activity which people do for fun, such as the movies often portray. Affairs often involve revenge and a harshness of feelings. The movie “Fatal Attraction” was one of the few that did not glamorize affairs. If we are to understand and learn from affairs, there will need to be an honest dialog about what what occurred and the reasons for it. In England, BBC will be running a series called Mistresses which addresses how affairs effect the lives of people. I will be curious to see if the series actually does open up dialog on an issue that has needed open discussion for a long time. The mystique needs to be removed and people see it for what it is.
