Virus curfew complicates lives of Kuwaiti polygamists
2020-05-20
Pity the poor rich polygamist who must choose between staying safely indoors with the one who is clearly his favourite wife and children, or chancing the gods of the copybook headings by venturing out to divide his time between the ladies’ separate but equal households.
[AlAhram] Abu Othman, like thousands of Kuwaiti men, has struggled to split his time between two wives living in separate homes amid the Gulf state's strict lockdown to combat the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
"My life has become so complicated," the 45-year-old, who has 10 children between the two women, told AFP.
It always was this complicated, habibi. You just were too busy to notice.
"I am constantly on the move between them," he said, stressing that he could never choose one wife over the other.

#2  Oh no, g(r)omgoru. The divorced dad only need amuse his children for a bit. In this case he also has a needy wife who will not be placated with the adult equivalent of a big lollipop and a ride on the rollercoaster instead of proper husbandly appreciation. And both need to be taken care of within 60 minutes...
