polygamy
Forms of polygamy:
Polygamy exists in three specific forms:
polygyny(一夫多妻) - wherein a man has multiple simultaneous wives;
polyandry (一妻多夫)- wherein a woman has multiple simultaneous husbands;
group marriage (群婚)- wherein the family unit consists of multiple husbands and multiple wives.
It was traditionally practiced among nomadic Tibetans in Nepal, parts of China and part of northern India, in which two or more brothers are married to the same wife, with the wife having equal 'sexual access' to them.
The Indian epic the Mahabharata includes the polyandrous marriage of Draupadi to the five Pandava brothers.
一妻多夫传统上存在于尼泊尔,中国部分地区和印度北部部分地区的游牧藏族人中,其中两个或两个以上的兄弟和同一个女子结婚。印度史诗《摩诃婆罗多》中就有一妻多夫的婚姻的描述,即德卢帕迪和潘杜兄弟五个的婚姻。
