A challenge about women and marriage in Islam

[paulpablo]

One man speaks Islam

What do you mean one man speaks Islam?

---

By maturity I basically mean less reliant on a guardian. Sexually mature and so on.

---

Every Muslim I've spoke with about this topic does believe Muhammad married a 9 year old, including the poster of this thread.

I'll give you that their bodies are typically smaller and weaker than that of a healthy adult, but are they so much smaller and weaker than a 12 year old? How much larger and stronger are they than a 5 year old? Why does smallness impact vulnerability? There are plenty of benefits to being small, which make one less vulnerable in many scenarios... Why do you count smallness among one's vulnerabilities? Is not largeness also a vulnerability?

No, smallness impacts vulnerability because it's easier for a bigger person to hit a smaller person and beat them up, it's pretty self explanatory there's no need for me to go into the physics or biological reasons for this.

*Why* do you think 9-year olds should be more focused on education over having sex and becoming pregnant and raising a child?

It's a pretty good idea to educate children.

What was the actual point you were trying to make by posting that graph? It just showed that the very countries you said had a high amount of people below 18 years old giving birth were also the countries with a high amount of deaths caused by child birth? Are you arguing for me or against me?

C-sections save lives Smile

Education and good parenting saves more lives.

I know you are trying to call me retarded by posting that youtube video but I feel that I cannot carry on this debate or whatever you want to call it if I have to explain why educating people when they are young is a good idea vs letting them get pregnant and just giving them C sections afterwards. Or explaining how bigger more muscular 16 year olds typically are less vulnerable than 9 year olds. It's more of a waste of my time than all the other things I argue about on here which are pretty much a waste of time too but this is seriously a boring waste of time.

Don't think of my wanting to stop this convo as a good thing, don't think that you are actually getting your point across to me, it's simply that I cannot be bothered to even start explaining these things to you in detail, I'm sure you already know these things already but you are in denial about them for whatever reason, maybe you had sex when you were a young boy under some strange circumstances I don't know.
