Rape is harm.

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.Ironically, I did name a single harm (I assume that you made a typo).
Regardless, I could name tons of harms that could occur in a marriage. Just because the marriage was consensual doesn't mean someone can't harm their spouse. There are plenty of ways someone could be harmed by their spouse, not just rape. The above quote suggests you are arguing that if a marriage is consensual, then one cannot be harmed in it. It also seems to suggest that puberty = maturity, when it does not. If you would like to defend of disown either of these claims, please do so.
