Both individuals were adult and had visited other countries. The bride and groom wanted their marriage arranged and seemed happy. An arranged marriage does not automatically mean rape as long as both people consent.I agree, and was speaking in general. Surely you agree that there are arranged marriages in which the bride's consent is not considered? Do those result in rape?
