Rising Hegemon
Looks like a season of Sister-Wives on vacation is in the offing.Kenya's President Uhuru Kenyatta has signed into law a controversial marriage bill legalising polygamy.It brings civil law, where a man was only allowed one wife, into line with customary law, where some cultures allow multiple partners.
Controversy surrounded an amendment to the bill, supported by many male MPs, allowing men to take more wives without consulting existing spouses.
Good job, once again, American Christian Right.

And, apparently, it's a direct violation of the Kenyan constitution, which guarantees (officially, anyway, not necessarily in practice) equal rights for all, including gender.
Polygamy, yes, polyandry, no. Ah, thank those wonderful patriarchal religions for this one.
But, they've also outlawed Homosexuality, on pain of death, so what are all the straight men who don't have money going to do when they can't find a suitable partner?
