Akon Speaks on Reason For Having Multiple Wives

Akon has 4 wives (not girlfriend's), and in a recent interview with TMZ, he justified his need to be polygamous. I think his explanation is very interesting.

















"If America adopted that [polygamy] culture there would be less domestic disputes. The average guy in the world has a main girl and they got a side chick. And then they got a jumpoff. At the end of the day as a male we are natural breeders by nature. We can’t even escape it if we wanted to. Let’s say you put 1,000 guys on one corner and one bad chick walk past. You gon’ see 1,000 heads go, ‘Damn.’ They don’t even know why they doing it. They’re natural breeders. It’s in their genes, they can’t help it. Even if you’re walking with your girl and you’re holding her hand and you see a bad chick walk by and she lookin’ at you like, ‘Boy you better not look,’ you gonna wanna look so bad and you don’t even know why that urge is there, but you’re a natural breeder. It’s what we do.Men are put on this earth to breed and the reason why God put multiple women on this earth is for that."



He also spoke on the union of Marriage-

"Marriage just solidifies a relationship between a man and a woman spiritually under God’s eyes.  So, I can be spiritually attached to her, and still be spiritually attached to [another woman], and still be spiritually attached to [yet another woman].

Now, when you’re talking about commitment, understanding, loyalty…that’s a different conversation because what happens now is that people are having relationships, boyfriend and girlfriend, and treating it like it’s actually marriage. You’re just dating. The whole purpose of dating is so you can date this one, and date this one, and date this one until you find out, ‘Okay, this is the person I want to spend the rest of my life with. Okay, now I commit to what’s called marriage.’ You find that one woman that supplies everything that you desire in a woman, of course that will be a motivation to stick with that one woman, but I don’t know no one woman that can satisfy every man’s one need. It’s impossible. Just like there’s not one man that can satisfy a woman’s every need, but women aren't built to breed like that or mate with more than one partner Women aren't built that way, men are."

Well, what can I say, I can't judge a man for how he chooses to live his life. If the women have no problem with him, then who are we to condemn his act. He is actually smart enough to keep his wives scattered around the world, or else he would have been tried and jailed for Bigamy. But on the real, he made some point there...it really is had for a man to stay with one woman for the rest of his life.
