Well what to say? I recently found this site and I'm interested in meeting new people and hopefully meet a woman who is interested in plural marriage.

Biblical Families is not a dating website. It is a forum to discuss issues relating to marriage and the Bible, and to offer guidance and support, not to find a wife. Click here for more information.

Seems to me godly and successful polygyny seems to be the exception rather than the rule, perhaps as rare as snow on a Miami beach.
This is very sad since this means that many women have chosen to be celibate of be sexually immoral, instead of being polygynous. They would rather do what is sinful and immoral than
obey Jesus and be married in Biblical Christian polygyny. From http://www.divorcemag.com/statistics/statsUS.shtml:
***35% of adults between 25 and 34 never married (1998),
clearly showing that the American way of marriage does not
ensure marriage for everyone, and may not be desired by everyone.
In 1999 28 % of Midwesterners never married
-------------28% of Northeasterners never married
-------------26% of Southerneres never married
-------------29% of Westerners never married
Clearly geographical and geosocial factors do not make a
difference.
**31.3% of males over 15 have never married
**25.1% of females over 15 have never married
Since more men than women never marry, that clearly shows
that there will not be one John for every Jane, and the only
hope of every Jane having a John is not in the American way
of marriage but in Jesus and His ways as opposed to our ways.
***25.5% of all USA households were occupied by one person in
1998. Obviously the American way of marriage is not preventing
this problem of being alone, while we know it is not good for people
to be alone without a helpmeet (Gen 1,2).
***10% of females have been widowed, and the young Christian
widows among them are under command to marry (1 Cor
7:1,2,8,9; 1 Tim 5:10-14)
***10.2% of females have been divorced, 45% of females
experience a drop in their standard of living after divorce, 9.2% of
all households are run by single moms, and are therefore bereft
presenting the ministry need of James 1:27.
Many Christian singles ministries have a ratio of
38% male, 62% female
[http://www.creativeye.com/singles/stats.htm].
Throughout the Presbyterian Church (USA) 59 percent of
members are female and 41 percent are male. ...

Options for Christian women are tough. There are obviously not enough "Christian" men for Christian women. That being the case, Christian women who want to marry and Christian women under command to marry - - - - - - - -
***1 Tim 5:14 Therefore, I want younger widows(5503) to marry, have children, manage their households, and give the adversary no opportunity to accuse us.
***1 Cor 7: 1* ¶ But concerning the things of which ye have written to me: It is good for a man not to continue -keep on - touching a woman; 2 but because of and to avoid sexual immorality each man should be [sexually] having his own woman, and each woman should be [sexually] having her own man. . . . 8To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is good for them to remain single as I am. 9 But if they do not [Strong's 3756] continue to have self-restraint [keep on abstaining from sex sin], they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with desire. - - - - - - -
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -or they may choose to do the following which are clearly sinful:
1. Marry the unsaved (2Cor 6; Malachi 2)
2. Marry carnal "Christians" snared in sin (2 Thess 3:6-14; 1 Cor 5:11)
3. Have sex outside of marriage (Ezek 23; Prov 5; 1 Cor 6)
4. Become lesbians (Rom 1:20-30)
5. Lust, i.e. desire what is forbidden by God, and do sex sin in their minds or with pornography (Matt 5:28; Ezek 23)
6. Self-stiimulate thinking of sex sin (Mat 5:28; Ezek 23)
Biblical Chrisitan polygyny is rejected by most unmarried women because they don't want to share a man, they don't trust men, or they would rather sin than obey Jesus and be involved in Christian polygyny.
