—”one of at least thirteen wives of King Fahd”

Nothing but more trouble ... probably on the order of two to the thirteenth, compared to an ordinary twosome.

The old ones knew:
“The Man and His Two Wives” is an Aesop fable about a middle-aged man who has two mistresses, one older and one younger, who both try to make him look their age:
The younger mistress: Plucks out the man’s gray hairs so he looks younger
The older mistress: Plucks out the man’s dark hair so she doesn’t look older than him.
Between the two, he was left bald ...
The moral: It’s impossible to please everyone.

“The moral: It’s impossible to please everyone.”

The wives only had to please one person.
