The movement for more wives catches on in Egypt. From the AP:

CAIRO, Egypt – Hayam Dorbek wants her husband to get married. Again.
In urging him – and the rest of Egypt – to be more open to polygamy as approved by Islam, the 42-year-old journalist has set off a lively debate in her country and the rest of the Arab world tuning in on satellite TV.
Dorbek says she felt her work was keeping her so busy that her husband needed a second wife. She says he refused, ”but my son is helping me promote the idea,” she said.
She feels the Islamic concept of polygamy is the answer to many of Egypt’s social ills. She has written articles with titles like ”One wife is not enough,” and has helped form an association called ”Al-Tayseer,” or facilitation, that promotes polygamy.
