Go back and read your history. Confederate and Union veterans were marrying 14 & 16 year old girls in their 60’s,70’s and even 80’s.

It not unheard of for men to be marrying girls from 14 years old on up in a multitude of places all through history.

Lord you see men today in their 60’s or older marrying young girls 18 or older.

You must not be much of a student of history or an observer of society in general.

I had a business acquaintance who lived in an area of Kentucky where 18 year old women regularly married middle-aged guys. He was 45 and divorced at the time, and wanted no part of that (”I ended up re-marrying a woman who was 35, and I could barely keep up with her!”)

I know my history. You disagree with my foil.

Please, don’t make a fool of yourself here.

This isn’t DU.
