polygamy

In endorsing polygamy, these women, particularly those in remote rural areas without running water, may be less concerned with loneliness than with something more pragmatic: help with the chores..在签署一夫多妻协议时，这些女性，尤其是边远地区连自来水都没有的地方的女性，可能比起孤独更需要实际的东西：帮忙做家务。

However, Woodruff's pronouncement, theManifesto, forbade polygamy only in the United States, and for a decade or so it continued in Mexico and other places outside the U.S. government's jurisdiction..然而，伍德罗夫关于禁止一夫多妻的宣言仅在美国生效，在墨西哥和其他美利坚合众国政府管辖权之外的地区，这一制度仍继续存在了十年左右。
