What does Mary have to do with modern day sex trafficking in relation to the Epstein fallout aling with other rings being exposed? Don’t be coy either, the narrative the past few days is a pathetic conditioning process.
GFY, lol? You have no comprehension skills anymore. So you promote underage sex trafficking and may be proud your grandma could have been prostituted? OK, lol. I hope this post pisses you off more, your lack of analysis deserves being triggered.
IMHO, factors in the U.S. for changing marriage age expectations are changes in average life spans (make babies while you can), changes in number of kids needed (make 'em early if your farming family needs labor in 10 or 20 years for your growing farm), and changes in what it means to be mature (i.e. finishing high school became the norm, not just for the few of the educated class).
As long as we live in a culture where kids are expected to be immature in responsibility longer than they used to (i.e. where I live boys are no longer expected to start full time work by 15 or so in the coal mines or the steel mill to be able to support a family), then it'd be inappropriate to have as low of an age of consent as we used to.
Massie has been a no vote on so many votes that are key Trump agenda items
That talking point gets repeated a lot, but there are no examples where Massie's vote changed the outcome, and in a number of examples Massie voted the same way as other Republicans.
Just to add, the hardest ancestor for me to trace was a woman who got older to get married, and then got younger as she got older in official records. Her reported age was not constant.
