There has been a growing trend over the last several years of high-profile men openly talking about, or actively pursuing, having children with multiple women. Andrew Tate is often mentioned in this context, and Nick Cannon is the celebrity example most people know. The idea alone triggers strong reactions, so it’s worth slowing down and actually thinking through the reality instead of reacting emotionally.

My position on this is more nuanced than most people expect.

At a basic level, there is nothing inherently immoral about having children with more than one woman—if certain conditions are met. If you want children, can afford them, and most importantly, have the time and structure to actually be a good father to all of them, then having kids with multiple women is not automatically a problem.

The real issue isn’t multiple women.
The real issue is too many children.

The Real Limiting Factor: Time, Not Biology

Men often forget that biology gives them the ability to create many children, but it does not give them the capacity to raise them well. Being a good father requires time—real, present, one-on-one time. Not just paying bills. Not just showing up for birthdays. Not just FaceTiming while traveling.

If a man has ten, fifteen, or twenty children spread across different households, the math simply doesn’t work. There are only so many hours in a week. You cannot be deeply involved in that many children’s lives, no matter how much money you have.

That’s where my criticism comes in.

If you knowingly create more children than you can reasonably spend time with, you are not being edgy or alpha. You are creating future broken adults and injecting more dysfunction into an already unstable world. That is not admirable.

Children—especially boys—need fathers who are present, consistent, and involved. A man who is rarely around is functionally absent, regardless of how famous or wealthy he is.

A Practical Boundary That Makes Sense

If someone told me they wanted to have, for example, three children with three different women—and they had the money, structure, and discipline to spend real time with all three kids—I see no issue with that. That’s manageable.

Where it becomes a problem is scale.

Seven women. Fourteen children. Twenty children. At that point, you are no longer raising children—you are outsourcing parenting to mothers, nannies, schools, screens, governments, and in some cases, other men. That is not fatherhood, and it’s not responsible.

The question I always ask is simple:

How good of a father can you realistically be to each child?

If the honest answer is “not very,” then you are already past the line.

Sequential Families vs. Simultaneous Families

There is another model that makes far more sense and is already common, even if people don’t talk about it honestly.

A man gets married young, has a couple of kids, gets divorced. Later in life—when he is more mature, more financially stable, and emotionally grounded—he settles down again and has another one or two children with a second woman.

This is very different from having eight children with eight women at the same time.

In fact, older men often make better fathers. They have more patience, more money, and more perspective. From a purely practical standpoint, having children in phases across a lifetime is far more responsible than trying to create a small village all at once.

If a man is going to have children with multiple women intentionally, it must be done with full disclosure and agreement before anyone gets pregnant.

That means real conversations, not vague assumptions.

Every woman involved needs to understand:

• That there will be other mothers
• How many children are planned
• How time will be divided
• What financial and emotional support looks like
• What the long-term structure is

This cannot be handled with “we’ll figure it out later.” That is how resentment, lawsuits, chaos, and lifelong bitterness are created.

If a woman agrees to this structure upfront and later changes her mind years down the road, that is unfortunate—but it is not the man acting unethically. The ethical line is whether there was honesty and agreement before the children existed.

What is unethical is impregnating women casually and then trying to explain the situation after the fact. That is stupidity, not masculinity.

The Bottom Line

My position is simple:

• Having children with multiple women is fine provide you can afford it.
• Creating more children than you can actively raise is
• Time, presence, and involvement matter as much as money.
• Transparency and agreement must come before pregnancy, not after.
• Fewer, well-raised children are far better for the world than many neglected ones.

Alpha Male 2.0 is about long-term stability, responsibility, and conscious decision-making—not impulse, ego, or shock value. If you remove monogamy from the equation, the responsibility doesn’t disappear. It increases.

And if you’re not willing to carry that responsibility fully, then you shouldn’t be creating lives in the first place.
