Tribes in Kenya Where Women are Allowed to Marry Other Women

448

Do you know there are tribes in Kenya where women are allowed to marry other women? About a year ago, a woman by the name Josephine discovered that she was barren. All efforts to get a child bore no fruits. Josephine approached her husband with a proposal to bring a visitor who would stay with the family forever. Shocked, the husband asked, โ€œwhich kind of a visitor?โ€. Prepared for the worst, she replied, โ€œyou know my condition, I want to bring a co-wifeโ€. A long silence filled the room, then the man cleared his throat, โ€œif thatโ€™s the case, I have no problemโ€

There are many such cases in Kenya especially where the couple is unable to bear a child.

Below is a list of tribes where women are allowed to marry other women:

  1. Kiss
  2. Luhya
  3. Luo
  4. Kalenjin
  5. Turkana
  6. Maasai

If you come from those tribes and you realize that your wife is barren, you can tell her to bring another wife for you.
