El varón polígamo is an essay by Esther Vilar that explores the dynamics of love relationships from a provocative perspective. Vilar argues that, unlike women, men have the ability to maintain simultaneous intimate relationships with several partners, motivated by the behavior of women, who seek security and protection, inducing men to adopt a provider role and needing a lover. This work, published in 1975, invites reflection on gender roles and the complexities of love and marriage.
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.
