Agreed. And the folks should be educated on the matter.

Prove it.

Quote:but I know who I am and I'm entitled to my rage. Hypocritical as you may judge it to be.

Rage on.


Quote:Your argument is purely that the practice is widespread, and therefore should be tolerated.

No. It was not. My contention is morality is subjective. If it is acceptable and within that societies moral guidelines that girls get married at 12 then it is a morally accptable practice. It is not "WRONG" simply because it is not acceptable by YOUR moral standards.

Quote:Maybe you should demonstrate a little compassion for the voiceless children? Bought and sold? Abused and impregnated at an early age with no choice in the matter? By men three times their age? Get F***in real.

I agree. I don't like it. It is 'wrong' IMO based on MY moral constructs. My morality says sex with a 16 year old is 'wrong'. It's my contention she would be physically matured but far from 'grown-up' psycologically. My personal morality does not change with my geographical location. Am I justified in labeling the societies I find myself in "wrong" because their collective morality differs from mine?
