I don't think 'enjoy' would be the word for having multiple husbands to look after and try to keep happy. Sounds like hard work for me. I believe it's still practiced in Nepal and Tibet and I read a book recently set in Ladakh (India) although I don't think that was very well researched.

Are you speaking of polygamy (a man marrying several women) or of polyandry (a woman marrying several men) ? In the first case, with a lot of children you can have interesting group rates to visit Disneyland.

i meant polyandry for sure, where female is the core of the family.
