Is the wife going to change her ways because you gave a light tap that has no pain? If you say yes it must be a magic light touch because otherwise talking would instead be sufficient. Your excuses are bullshit.
Response: Yes a person can be influenced to change their mind by being tapped, so your rebuttal is full of it. No one can subject themselves to constantly being tapped, nor can you prove otherwise. So your excuses are weak and proves nothing.

Response: Men are allowed to marry any female, as long as she has reached puberty and maturity, no matter the age. And since you can name a single harm in consensual marriage with someone who is mature and reached puberty, then your logic is completely invalid.
