A challenge about women and marriage in Islam
RE: A challenge about women and marriage in Islam

The arrangement is performed by the parent, and most times do not have the child's needs or desires at the forefront. Most of the time, it is for each families best interest. Also, many arrange marriages are a young female child to an Adult Male. I call those men pedophiles.

That's the point of an arranged marriage. It's arranged by parents/guardians, and those in said arrangement may choose to go along with it, or deny it, with associated consequences for either action.

I don't call people pedophiles unless they have pedophilia... simply marrying a child does not state precisely what that entails. Given that most arranged marriages are for sociopolitical or economic[ reasons: fucking each other in an arranged marriage is often quite irrelevant to the intentions of modern-day arranged marriages. In the past, just about every marriage a prince and a princess underwent was one arranged by their parents, and the peasant class did not even posses the ability to marry one another.

One does not have to fuck someone in marriage Smile At least... not anymore Dodgy

Quote:At the end of it, the child has no say in the relationship or marriage.
If that is force, I am not sure what is then.

The child can refuse, but there are consequences for doing so (parents angry with them, etc), just as if the child did something the parents did not want them to do.

It's not forced unless it is, and once it is forced it's an abuse case. Simple distinction.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
