El varón polígamo es un ensayo de Esther Vilar que explora las dinámicas de las relaciones amorosas desde una perspectiva provocadora. Vilar argumenta que, a diferencia de la mujer, el hombre tiene la capacidad de mantener relaciones íntimas simultáneas con varias compañeras, motivado por el comportamiento de la mujer, que busca seguridad y protección, induciendo al hombre a adoptar un rol de proveedor y necesitando este una amante. Esta obra, publicada en 1975, invita a la reflexión sobre los roles de género y las complejidades del amor y el matrimonio.

Esther Margareta Vilar is an Argentine-German writer. She trained and practised as a medical doctor before establishing herself as an author. She is best known for her 1971 book The Manipulated Man and its various follow-ups, which argue that, contrary to common feminist and women's rights rhetoric, women in industrialized cultures are not oppressed, but rather exploit a well-established system of manipulating men.
