ORIGINAL: freedomdwarf1 Are you aware that in their ideology/culture, it is quite normal (and accepted/encouraged) for men to take very young (pre-teen) wives? As soon as a female menstruates, they are allowed to have them as wives and for them to bear children. In the western world, that is considered pedophilia and is illegal. Yet you welcome this evil ideology into your midst? I would call your attention to austria, albania, bolivia, bosnia/hertsogovinia, brazil, china, estonia, germany, hungary, italy, japan, lichtinstien, macedonia, montenegro, paraguay, peru, phillipinenes, portugal and san marino. All are 14 except the phillippines at 12, and japan at 13. You will also note that in most of the islamic countries marriage is the primary prerequisite. https://www.ageofconsent.net/world In 1880, the age of consent was set at 10 or 12 in most states, with the exception of Delaware where it was 7.[2] The ages of consent were raised across the U.S. during the late 19th century and the early 20th century.[3][4] By 1920 ages of consent generally rose to 16-18 and small adjustments to these laws occurred after 1920. As of 2015 the final state to raise its age of general consent was Hawaii, which changed it from 14 to 16 in 2001. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_the_United_States That belief makes me sick - and I'm not a christian. Because, even in their own country, they are being barbaric towards women and children (particularly girls) and we in the west want to poke our oar in to fix it to our ideology. Why do you feel it is your business to "poke your oar" into someone elses business in a country you do not live in and do not plan to visit?
