A 10 year age difference is a total red herring, Robertson said nothing of the kind - you just made it up.

What he did say is “You need to check with mom and dad about that of course.” Parental consent, got it?

He was 18 when he started dating his wife who was 14 then, and he married her when she was 16 and he was 20. If a 4 year age difference constitutes perversion then half the country is perverted.

I read somewhere that for the happiest and longest-lasting marriage, the age difference between bride and groom should be no more than 5 years.

It is worth pointing out that marrying later, and trying to have kids later, has led to a lot of fertility problems / couples frustrated at their inability to conceive. This should be discussed in this context, even though it will be discouraged by many.

“He was 18 when he started dating his wife who was 14 then, and he married her when she was 16 and he was 20.”

And he would’ve gotten my boot up his ass for trying to pull that on my kids!

But then, I suppose you support the Muslims that do this kind of thing, too, right?

Yeah, the country is full of all kinds of sick bastards nowadays!
