I didn’t call you names.

I said that the idea that people can’t stop having sex is retarded.

I should also have said any adult who is trying to excuse sex with children is probably someone who should be on a watch list.

Here is something else you said in your first comment to me.


I realize that libertarians don’t like any age limits for drugs and sex and crap, but they are all insane.

but the article says this.

In February 2009, a law was created in Yemen that set the minimum age for marriage at 17. Unfortunately, it was repealed after more conservative lawmakers called it un-Islamic.

And you are blaming the libertarians, GEE.

That is Yemen the words like “Liberal” and “conservative” have very different meanings in different countries. Look at Australia for instance.

I blame libertarians for what they are doing and trying to do in this country.

No one has to be a mathematical genius to figure this out, most people know that age to be around 14 years of age, an 8 year old girl is not of that age, its all about human nature.

I’m not sure what you are trying to say. Are you saying that “the flower of” a woman’s age is 14 years old and that if she isn’t married by then, she’s an old maid? Or are you saying that a woman starts menstruating, "passing her flower?" at age 14 therefore should be able to get married?

Either way, you are wrong.

The average age of menarche in humans is 12–13 years, but is normal anywhere between ages 8 and 16. The average age of menarche is about 12.5 years in the United States.

And there are several interpretations and translations of 1 Corinthians 7:36 and none seem to support what you seem to be saying:

On the other hand most of the stupid western culture wants their daughters to go to college before they get married so they can say ; oh, hey , look what a great job i did raising my kids.

On the other hand they could marry off their 12 or 14 year old daughters and say; oh, hey , look what a great job I did pawning my kid off to a man twice or three or more times her age.

Explain yourself then.

When have the libertarians even been in power, how in the world can you blame them for anything when they have not even had a chance.

I don,t know how many babies have been murdered since sex education in schools started, instigated by democrat and republican liberals but according to many reports there have been many millions in just a few years.

Any one who think that is better than letting girls marry younger is nuts.

I thought what i said was pretty plain but i suppose i can say it plainer.

I would much rather a daughter of mine was screwing one man who was her husband rather than screwing any tom dick and harry that happened to have his pants unzipped.

And if her husband was not the only one she was screwing at least the poor little child would have a name.

We might be shocked to learn how common child marriage is among Muslims not only in places like Yemen, but in Western Europe and even the US.

Not a peep from the left about this Islamic tradition.

If the kid is old enough for sex they are old enough to take care of themselves.

Why should parents pay for her birth control when they oughtta kick her out of the house since she is an adult in your eyes?

Any adult who sees a 14 year old as a sex object has a screw loose.


I do not agree on kicking a daughter out of the house just to save a little money on a wedding.
