Polygamy can be a pretty sensitive issue to discuss, especially in front of our partners.
One man in Malaysia, though, handled such a question perfectly, even sending his wife into a fit of laughter over his answer.
When asked about his thoughts on polygamy, he said that he preferred owning multiple cars instead.
His quick-witted response has since gone viral, with many TikTok users praising him for his gentlemanly behaviour.
TikTok content creator Ezie Joely RK aka @eziejoelyrk posted footage of the interview on the social media platform.
The video starts with him approaching a couple and raising the recent topic of an influencer who became viral for marrying a second wife.
Holding his small mic specifically to the man in the couple, Ezie asked for their personal opinion on the matter and if they agreed with the practice of polygamy.
With his wife listening attentively for his answer, the man took up the brave task of answering the bold question.
He first shared that he was formerly a commando, having retired 16 years ago.

“For me, I prefer cars [to] wives,” he said. “Because of that I have one wife.”
Grinning widely, the man went on to prove his love for cars by stating that he owned not just one, but three — an Alphard, a Mercedes and a BMW.
At this point, his wife struggled to contain her laughter, covering her mouth while giggling away.

He added that polygamy seems to be a headache to manage, so having other interests would be better.
Overcome with amusement, his wife dodged out of view of the camera. Evidently pleased with his answer, the man smiled and left the interview to catch up with her.

Indeed, the situation could have gone awry had the retired commando not had such an answer ready.
Fortunately for us — and his wife — he was more than up to the task of handling the tricky issue of polygamy.
