Mauritian social habits changing

The Mauritanian professor and women's rights advocate Torba Mint Ammar confirmed that polygamy should be considered in favour of “spinsterhood” in Mauritius. In an interview with Arabstoday Amma said: "I think that poor social habits in Mauritanian society are changing.” Amma stated one of these habits as: “The non-acceptance of some families to marry their daughters or sons to other families,” and admitted that although some social circles will remain vulnerable from this change: “The fastest development is the acceptance of multiplicity of wives.” Amma explained that: “Every lady who has exceeded the age of thirty is afraid of spinsterhood,” confirming that pluralism is just the medication that may be needed.
