diminishing utility?..,mind you...

This morning, me and my friend,while finishing our breakfast, we spent some time browsing the net,in the sudden, we were then discussing intensely the "anggota DPR m***m",after some time browsing the news, we came to "gossip time", AA gym getting married for the second time, even I consider it as individual rights, and that doesn't bothered me at all. it occured to us,however,normally, men, tends to have an increasing beauty of scale in Polygami. the second wife tends to be better thatn the first, and the third one might be even better than the second.

Even I do agree that the term "better" is highly arguable, but still Economics is surely against such utility maximizing, well, so much with Marginal Diminishing utility...

i wonder, is it true that whenever we're considering women,then people is naturally irrational? yet, transitivity doesn't work as well..

There is nothing related to Diminishing Marginal Utility. It is just two difference cases.
You were saying that man tends to choose better girl for his next wife. That's normal. Happens to both man and woman.
If I have a chance to buy my second, say, laptop, I would prefer it better than my old one.
Yet, it will be different if we discuss the level of utility i got when i bought it. It might be not in the same level of happiness like it was. indeed, i'm still happy.
So do the case of wife!

hmm.. your point is true in the case that you won't use the older ones,if in case you must use both of your laptop in the same time,will you see it in the same ways?
the case that i used is beauty, if only our utility could be derived to beauty only, which means that beauty is equal to utility, than we suppose to say that people must have less additional beauty, if the diminishing marginal utility is valid, yes?

hahaha... it cant be done my friend. could u use both your wives in the same time? *ups* if u say yes, and so does the laptop case.
utility derived from beauty?
if that really the case, diminishing marginal utility still applies. if u happen to "utilize" your first wife, right after that, the beauty of the second one will mean nothing. believe me!!! It said by the Prophet, PBUH. If u know what I mean, hahahaha

that's the point bro, if ever the diminishing marginal of beauty should be less than the earlier wife, then you should have a more mature wife , for your second wife, instead of younger-childish-beautiful girl as a second wife..unless your earlier wife is not beautifull enough to solve satiation problem?
about the transitivity stuff, you kinda agree with me?

Menurut gw masalahnya bukan masalah kecantikan yang memudar wahai kawan-kawan, sebab laki-laki semakin tua juga semakin jelek kok. Jadi menurut gw, asal muasalnya lebih ke alasan ekonomi. Laki-laki identik dengan semakin tua semakin kaya, karena kehidupan laki-laki dirancang untuk mengejar karir dan kekayaan. Sehingga hal ini menyebabkan laki-laki dinilai "semakin tua semakin ok". Kalo saja kehidupan perempuan juga dirancang selayaknya laki-laki yaitu mengejar kekayaan dan karir maka gw yakin perempuan juga akan cenderung poliandri. Banyak kok contoh-contoh tante-tante kaya raya yang suka ngejar-ngejar laki-laki muda. hahaha....

remember, the diminishing utility is for one type of producy. if you are debatting about to compare the marginal utility between the second wife and the first wife, it is same with you compare orange with grape, that actually can not be compared. suppose the first wife is orange, and than after you ate 2kgs, you don't want eat it anymore. and then you'll buy grape and start to eat it and your utility still high.

then, that is the reason why the man find the second wife.

I think independence axiom is most important in this case since even though one may not "use" both of laptop (or wives) the utility is mainly derive from having them and knowing one can consume at appropriate time.

If we assume independence axiom is fullfulled, then as income increase with age the types of laptop (or woman) not reachable by PPB before become reachable. Thus (after legal proceeding) consumed.

If it is not, and experienced utilty is at play here, then the type of the first will affect one's choice of the type of the second. The second may not better in a preference relation than the first but simply different.

what kind of utility can be derived from beauty, boys?

temporer happiness? i guess..or sex? noo..among the photographers, phrase like.."the prettier, the worse in bed" are quiet popular.

before you can define what kind of utility can be derived from beauty, no further discussion on utility here yah.

ah..boys..
