depends on the moment in history! harem are technically more regular in human history then no harem!
genetically speaking half of all the men ever born never reproduced and several archaeological proofs show that with the advent of agriculture where before it was regular for a man who reproduced to have 2-3 female partners it became as extreme as an average of 16 females partners so yes in today western society that might be "correct" and that is assuming we are ignoring lovers ... but apart from the western world harems are still the "norm" by either having concubines lovers or secondary wives... or are you being a cultural bigot and Islamophobic and so forth and so forth!
except for the judean-christian set of believes almost all other cultures admit several "wife's" for men who can afford them!
and even in the west if you consider lovers throuples are pretty standard even tough not the norm!
and it made sense in the past men died earlier so young men got a second hand older wife to start life with and depending on how good of a hunter or farmer or priest or king or whatever and he could afford them they would collect more wives along the way or loose their original 2nd hand wife due to life happening!
but in this game you are right its a game set in the western world with the western set of social rules!
This AVN takes place in New York, which is in The United States, so I'm not sure whether or not you'd find harems over there(at least not normally). In fact, I'm not sure if you'd find harems to be common anywhere in North or South America. As far as social rules are concerned... aside from the Islamic countries and some select Asian countries, harems are not common. I live in Europe, and if you're not Islamic, then the chances of you having a "harem" are pretty slim. Even then, judging by the Islamic friends I have, the men aren't having orgies with all of their wives. They aren't sleeping with one, then calling in the other right after, nor anything that relates to what a harem is seen as on this site.
Harems and concubines came about from kings and sultans possessing the ability to bring in women(willingly or unwillingly) to act according to their pleasures whenever they saw fit. To clarify what I meant when I talked about harems earlier, I meant it as it refers to having multiple wives and/or lovers at the same time with all of them knowing of each other. There's a reason why this practice has practically died out.
Personally, I'm a monogamous girl. I do not identify with harem stories... at all. From a writing standpoint, I cannot find many that are artistically displayed. I see harem stories as childish because it is childish to believe that you can get with multiple women at the same time, develop a strong emotional bond with each of them, then expect them to just accept that they're going to have to share you. I'm 23, engaged, and have never met a woman like that. A woman that sits quietly while the love of her life shares his "gift" with the world? That's not normal. The MC's penis is somehow so magical that this strong, attractive, angel of a lady is willing to share him with the world? Yeah... no. No woman that respects herself or is secure with herself would be ok with this. It's just not realistic, I'm sorry. There's a difference between being submissive and having no self-respect. But that's just my opinion, anyway.
P.S: This isn't an attack on anyone interested in harems. If you're interested in harems, that's great. These are just my reasons for why I dislike those kinds of stories. But I'm sorry if I have offended anyone ❤
