Afghanistan may lead the world in state-sanctioned pedophilia
At least 60 percent of all women are married as children
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - A new report on human rights in Afghanistan released by the U.S. State Department reveals that girls as young as six can be "married" away or betrothed and are the victims of frequent sexual abuse from older men, sometimes within their own families.
Although the Taliban have a reputation for religious conservatism, that conservatism does nothing to protect women and girls from the sexual depredations of men. Women and girls are commonly victimized and those that speak out are likely to be blamed themselves, regardless of age differences.
Afghan law requires that girls be 16 before they can marry and boys 18. Such laws are rarely respected and about 60 percent of all girls are forced to marry before 16. Since most of the marriages in Afghanistan are unregistered and few people even have birth certificates, it is virtually impossible for the government to enforce the law.
Other Afghan laws designed to protect women from abuse also have little enforcement.
In 2013, incidents of rape also increased in Afghanistan. Most of the victims were children.
The Taliban argue that restricting child marriages is "un-Islamic." In their culture, it is perfectly acceptable to marry children or to promise them in marriage. Traditionally a girl may be betrothed, but the marriages are supposed to be delayed until puberty. However, this is not always respected. Also, early onset of puberty can occur in some girls, sometimes as young as eight.
Not only are these girls younger and physically unable to engage in healthy sexual relationships within the context of marriage, they are also psychologically unprepared for marriage, sex, and motherhood.
Girls who are promised in marriage can also be abused by their own family, especially if the intended groom is also a child -the young boy cannot defend his child wife from the depredations of older men.
Child marriage is an ancient practice for the region and it is part of the dominant culture. Typically, money is exchanged for the bride-to-be. However, it is now understood that such practices are very harmful. Girls and women in these situations are usually treated poorly, with several being badly abused or even killed each year.
Given the Afghan government's lukewarm support of the official law and their inability to effectively rule outlying districts, it is unlikely these barbaric practices will change anytime soon.
Like everything else, you can learn this by reading Flashman. Buggery is quite common there.
“Afghan women are handsome rather than pretty, but they have this great advantage to them, that their own men don’t care for them overmuch. Afghan men would as soon be perverts as not, and have a great taste for young boys; it would sicken you to see them mooning over these painted youths as though they were girls, and our troops thought it a tremendous joke.”
Their religion was founded on child rape. Read about mohammed.
That guy looks like he just finished servicing his goats.
(no disrespect meant of course)
That poor girl in the photo - her “husband” no doubt beats her regularly and stinks like a goat. With apologies to goats. I despise these inbred creatures who have not advanced past pottery.
You can bet that the #2 nation in the practice of pedophilia is also Islamic.
Why we need to give up fighting for Islam.
Sir Harry Flashman’s experience with women of many cultures would make Giovanni di Casanova green with envy.
It is sickening to think about our American blood and treasure that has been poured into this medieval s***hole called Afghanistan.
A friend returned from deployment there (as infantry at village level) with descriptions of `Man-Boy Thursdays’ & `Bacha Bazi’ that were stomach turning. He saw the `trial’ of a man & woman in a normal relationship where the two were not married; it was terminated with the man beheaded and the woman shot & buried face down.
Disgusting savages, the lot of them.
Everything evil in the world may not be Islamic but everything Islamic is evil.
See tagline.
#1 is a real achievement when you consider that every other country in the area is tied for @2.
Females purpose is to be subservient to males and have their children, young males and goats are for their sexual pleasure.
islam. Nothing more needs to be said.
Not a joke about the predilection for boys. My son reported the the Afghan tribal leaders invited the US soldiers without a heavy beard to stay around. Even the Afghan army units traveled with their young boy “pets.” Some of the green on blue violence occurred when a US soldier would offend an Afghani, teasing him about being a homosexual(they deny that a male having sex with a male is homosexual behavior.) The “custom” of pederasty was introduced by Alexander the Great when he conquered that part of the world.
But at last in the end, our troops were allowed to carry loaded weapons on the bases and when they interacted with the natives.
Fixed it.
Islam is truly evil. They follow the teachings of their god to the letter, which makes their god evil as well.
To those who say that Judaism, Christianity, and islam serve the same God, have no idea what they are talking about, because they either; 1) are not willing to stand up and tell the truth out of fear of being called a bigot, or of the death threats from that shallow “religion” islam, or 2) they do not know who God is, they have never really took the time to get to know Him.
The one, true God has shown us who He is through His word, The Bible, through His Son, Jesus, and He continues to show the world who He is through those who have put their faith and trust in Jesus.
He is also showing the world that His word is true through the nation of Israel, that they even exist as a nation after almost 2,000yrs of being exiled, God brought them back as a nation as He said that He would.
There is only one God, and only one way to Him, through Jesus, The Christ.

Tell me why we are trying to drag that nation into
This century. Repulsive filthy old men.
Maybe we should have just let the Soviets keep it.
