You are dead wrong. I'm a woman and I'm polygamist, and I never get jealous. You are putting a stereotypical monogamous woman into a position of polygamy. What you said is simply not true. Polygamy rocks. Also, humans are biologically polygamous. The first humans had many "wives" and "husbands". Another thing is that other primate species are polygamous, and so are we, but religion had told us we are monogamous when we are not.
In the west it is true women who enter into polygamist relationships are like yourself. However in a lot of places where polygamy is practiced it is not that way, hence what I have said about it.
About humans versus other primate species, while we are primates (great apes to be exact) that does not mean we share their social organisational structures. Chimps for example don’t socialize in the ‘herds’ we humans do, their social group is based around extended families.
