A
43-year-old American, Brave Joe has double trouble and more. Joe is married to
42-year-old twins who share more than their physical looks. The man is also
involved in a polygamous marriage with the twins' cousin.
The
family is fundamentalist Mormon from Salt Lake City, Utah, and in their
religion "all three women are equally married" to their common
husband.

The
twins are not bothered about sharing their husband. In fact, during their teens
they say they used to be attracted to the same guys and even wondered if one
day they would be married to the same guy. They do realise that some siblings
might not be comfortable about sharing their spouse with each other.
Describing their joint dates, Joe said: "Since Alina and Vicki were
close friends and were interested in pursuing me together, the best thing I
could do was to nurture that combined friendship”.
The three were married in a
traditional religious service at home, followed by a civil register office
ceremony where Alina became Joe's legal wife, while Vicki acted as a witness.

But in the eyes of their
fundamentalist Mormon religion, all three women are equally married to Joe.
They each have their own bedroom,
and Joe alternates between the three rooms each evening.

Vicki and Alina had been married to Joe for ten
years when they both encouraged him to start pursuing a relationship with
Vicki's twin, Valerie.
Valerie had just
gone through a divorce after her marriage – to a man with six wives – broke
down due to his gambling and abusive treatment.

| So happy together ... Alina, Joe, Vicki and Valerie live in harmony in Utah |
Joe
married one of the twins and their cousin in 1990. He married the other twin in
2000.
Imagine Polygamy
is illegal in all 50 states of America and the strange Americans are legalizing same-sex marriage WTH!!!
