Spoiler:I get the obsessed with having another son. But to honestly expect his wife to tolerate 'the other woman'? Shows that even smart men are stupid.
Someone made a joke the the vikings are the original klingons
Remember last season when they invited the priest into bed with them?Spoiler:I guess taking another wife was one step too far.sigpic

From how this reads, vikings were monogamous
http://www.arild-hauge.com/elife.htm
Spoiler:which basically means that ragnar did her wrong. now i'm sure, as with most societies, having a single mate was not the same as having a single sex partner. But I think he shamed her, not by getting the other woman pregnant but by welcoming that woman into her home and wanting to elevate her to be equal.
but we saw that ragnar was obsessed with having more sons, and I think that's what guided his actions. Since his wife couldn't have more he would find a woman that would.
It probably would have been less shameful to have gotten a female slave and use her as a broodmare than to welcome a foreign princess and suggest that she be equal wife

Spoiler:I think the fact that his new wife was basically Viking royalty made it even worse.sigpic
