Some cultures sexualize girls early....super cold climate folk and nomads and isolated islanders.....some Hassidim fairly early arranged marriage..and of course FLDS......our rural areas once married off girls early..my maternal grandma was 15.

Papa was barely 18

1920

She didn’t even know what sex was literally....she used to recount to me when it was just she and I in her 70s and 80s....poor thing...she was lucky my grandpa was a tender hearted boy

Nine months after that honeymoon buggy ride by the spring under the moon ona Mississippi hot summer night and she was making paper dolls for herself and her baby

And fixing to get pregnant again.

They had to grow up fast....my great grandma and grandpa let them live in the tack house cabin

They moved to the city in 1924.....like most rural folk then

I stayed some weekends with that great grandma in preschool years....no running water and an outhouse

Kid u not

Fried pies and she chewed her own tobacco rope and shot and rode her saddlebred in her late 70s

260 acres and that and tobacco allotments was their means of life

Crazy

Kids today have no idea

I at least got a taste of it

My great grandpa died in that front parlor and was lain there in an alcohol drenched coffin till his burial for folks to come by before the wagon took him down the pike to Burns Mississippi Presbyterian antebellum graveyard

Farms long gone..can’t find it now...the land is all Scott Paper

Our culture is so so bad

In our lifetimes a cliff dive

Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh...you missed my point, which is unusual for you. Was I that unclear? If so, I am very sorry!

You said so yourself....at 15, your grandmother had NO idea what SEX was.

Today, in some places in the USA, they know what it is at 5 or at least by 8 and by 15, are "old hands" at it; not married, mind you, but 'round the block and back so often, it's sickening.

The Hassidim marry early, but not THAT early and usually it's the kids of the BIG TIME Rabbis, who marry the earliest and it's akin to long past royal weddings...mergers and such, for territory and breeding stock.
