Is it? I would think the opposite, that it's very rare indeed- I've only heard of 2 or 3 polygamous (arab) men in my life.

mormons practice it

[Al-Zaara]

If you want, you can also consider the concubines in different cultures. Not 'official' wives, but still slightly more rights than a mistress.

[Malaikah]

Apparently it happens in Canada.

And in the US it is practiced by the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints - an off-shot of the Mormons.

Indonesia.

But polygami in Indonesia is only for the brave husband who doesn't affraid to his wife.
And for the rich husband who affraid to his wife,..........I think you can guess.

The african culture here in SA used to practice polygamy, but not so much now.
