Q: Is there paligamy in china?

i cant believe i spelled it right. I'm in love with 4 women on this site (avatar photos). possibly 6 even the dumb one with the austrian bf.
I read an article about 2 old women who were married to the same guy here in china and they are the best of buddies at their old age, is it still allowed?

You're not allowed to be married to more than one person at once but polygamy happens all the time if you have money. You ever hear about rich government officials or CEOs who have mistresses? That counts as polygamy.

There are far flung places that have it but it's from "before" the change... Now if you count kept women, yes it's an EXTREMELY common practice in China....

I mean why would you bother? It's difficult enough to keep one happy why increase the stress trying to keep two, three or four of them happy?

A: Chinese are generally pretty tolerant friendly and accepting whatever
A:Chinese are generally pretty tolerant friendly and accepting whatever foreigners do.  I spent 15 years in China but I wouldn't say there are that many don'ts....Don't assume that many people speak English though and learn some Chinese. Don't speak much about politics unless you want to praise Chinese system.  -- Natalie363
