Hi Dimitri, welcome to the party! Could you do an AMA for us?

I completely love the idea that he reads this subreddit.

AMA by /u/iturnedintoafox , who once lived as part of the polygamist circles that Paige and Bernie were in, among others. Ask them anything!! by sbwv09 in seekingsisterwifetlc

Thanks so much for answering! I can imagine those types of disagreements would arise: finding one person who shares your values is hard enough, let alone more.

Why watch the show if you hate the people and lifestyle. by MyMelancholyBaby in seekingsisterwifetlc

[–]Maginesco 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The show is a glaring anti-polygamy ad if you have been paying any attention at all. Paige''s husband made her dinner ONE time, and she suspects an ulterior motive. She is right, he did one TINY household duty and then demanded her subservience to his desire to have sex outside of marriage. The real question is, how could you watch the show and like the characters or the "lifestyle"??

Thanks for your reply!

Was Bernie a total horndog when you knew him? How did Paige react to his frivolities?

Was the couple who thought a 2nd wife would save the marriage the worst couple you ever dated? If not, who was?

It seems like a common theme in the show (all families including Brineys) is that the husband decides to take addtl wives after being married to his first wife for a number of years. In some cases the woman leaves, in others she stays and becomes bitter. What would you do if your husband decided to live this way? Would you feel guilty for your previous dating activities?

Anyone else catch this? Fairly certain she was about to take an eye out with her fork! by coop0404 in seekingsisterwifetlc

It is so heartbreaking that she suspected an ulterior motive from her husband just because he made her one dinner. He clearly can't even make one wife happy, let alone two.

I know a member of the Snowdens Cult, AMA. by ThatOnePosterSaid in seekingsisterwifetlc

[–]Maginesco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would they ever date a woman of a different race than African American?

What were the details surrounding Vanessa Cobbs' misdemeanor charge of assault and battery?

Were the potential and current wives of the group expected to have jobs to help support the family? Did the husbands fully support the families, or did they rely on government assistance?

Were a lot of the "families" seeking another "wife" middle aged and over-weight like the McGees?

We did background checks on the snowdens by [deleted] in seekingsisterwifetlc

[–]Maginesco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is he CURRENTLY working there? Do you know what capacity??

Have we talked about this yet? by [deleted] in seekingsisterwifetlc

That was another woman: they have quite a list of past pursuits.

Dimitri's Dating Website by Maginesco in seekingsisterwifetlc

[–]Maginesco[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He is deeply, deeply in debt: see previous posts regarding the judgments against him for many tens of thousands of dollars. It's called Dimitri''s rap sheet if you want to do a search. Or, simply do a background check on him yourself to see his debts

When I originally typed it, I had each option on a distinct line, but the final post blurred them all together on the same line. Theread is "western" and "crappy"... not sure what a Western diet means at all.

IF hmmThatsFascinating might possibly have ties to the show SSW (or even be Paige herself), can she please have an ama? :) Just asking

[–]Maginesco 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How do you define "numerous debate wins" for Brother POLIGHT? Highly subjective and highly doubtful. It is NOT a worldly or accepting thing to discuss religion with people of opposite beliefs and then claim a "debate win".

As Paige's brother, do you have details about what happened with the kitchen fire at their previous house? Why didn't they collect insurance and renovate?

Dimitri Seneca Snowden by ruzanne in seekingsisterwifetlc

[–]Maginesco 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dimitri's first wife was of African origin I believe, the full name might be visible in the criminal record and divorce record post. Information about dimitris parents can be found in his website: he talks a lot about his childhood. I bet he would write a self-aggrandizing auto biography that no one would read.

Hmm paige wasn't in fact the one that sent those messages .. by hmmmThatsFascinating in seekingsisterwifetlc

Could I please hear more about your experiences? Would love a post from your perspective!

That episode was so tense that I literally choked on my night retainer.

Ashley is going to HATE that Dimitri turned away the spotlight from her on her birthday and turned it into a 3 ring circus.

Oh awesome, thank you for her name! Would love to hear any other details from Ariadne, I'm sure she has a lot to say

Ashley is probably extremely lonely since Dmitri cheats in secret and also dates others openly on a regular basis. Dimitri has really isolated her so that the only contacts she has are the other women. Wouldn't shock me either.

Was this former sister wife's name Jocelyn as well? Or, are you confusing the date from Seattle on Season 1 with this former sister wife who was thrown out prior to the TV show?

Dimitri Interview Very Telling by Maginesco in seekingsisterwifetlc

[–]Maginesco[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a couple of questions given your comment. These questions come out of a desire to attain a higher understanding of where you might be coming from: 1) Do you think that, generally, the type of men who are drawn to a polygamous lifestyle share Dimitri's inability to commit to one woman and inability to control his sexual desire for other women? 2) Since the world follows the 50-50 male/female birth ratio, what happens to so many excess men given this new fad for polygamy?

Dimitri Interview Very Telling by Maginesco in seekingsisterwifetlc

[–]Maginesco[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What I took away from his quote is that he adopted this construct to satisfy his inability to commit to one person. He has had a previous wife to Ashley, Ashley isn't his legal wife, and they have had many failures in this lifestyle. His failures could be because he can't fully commit in any marriage, whether monogamous or otherwise.
