Man why would you crash the Party, having him going all steam was so beautiful, like TT on Oxy.
It's pretty funny how half of the posters just take timetravellers retarded rants for truth.
Even through it states so in the article which timetraveller HIMSELF posted that child marriage is ILLEGAL in India. Now ofcourse that doesn't mean that it doesn't happen, or isn't accepted in rural areas but the fact stands that the Indian goverment is trying to curb down on it.
You can bet that timetraveller just read the title and not one word of the article and then decided to make up his own retarded title for the forum.
You should take a step back and realise that not everything that is being said here is always serious, and maybe tone it down with the stupid rhetoric.
BTW child marriage is also legal in some "western" countries.
In both the US and Canada children under 16 years can marry with parental consent and a court order. That one actor from the green mile in his 50ties just recently married a 16 year old - Legally in the US.
How crazy is that ?
In Germany and other european countries it also starts at age 16 - Still too young in my eyes.

Arranged marriages happen and when it comes to Child marriages they do happen even if it's deemed illegal in such Countries like India the practice still happens .
What is written as law is merely in most cases ignored or even presented to give the impression that such practices isn't allowed full stop but when people are jailed for committing crimes against children whilst in some nations it's not even regarded as a crime yet a kid can marry at 16 .. not even old enough to buy drink in a pub ..
There is hypocrisy and double standards when it comes laws regarding child rights when some countries allow kids aged 16 to get married ..further more hypocrisy if a kid aged 16 is regarded as a child by a model agency and the goverment , how can that child be regarded as an Adult if allowed to be married , Consider the backlash of the recent pics published by Kim kardashian of her relation aged 14 if am not mistaken .
@Macs
I'm not going to say it's okay when a 50 years old slob goes to marry a 16-years-old. However, that's still a whole lot different from a kid being forced to marry another kid at one-digit ages and all the repercussions those kids have to face who try to break out from forced marriages. The fact that India has a ban on these kind of marriages in effect has no significance whatsoever. Other countries don't, and in either case the societies don't follow the law.You're about the only one who's looking like a fool in here. Which is quite an achievement in a thread started by timetraveller.
Every single one of you mother ****ers would ride that Stodden chick into the sunset, hitting it like a screendoor in a cat 5 hurricane.
Go ahead and lie.
^ And it would be legal here too, so i wouldnt feel bad.
I would just need the permission from the president to marry (yes, law says so).
That Stodden chick is almost 18, I fail to see the basis of comparison. Stop being such jackasses, the lot of you.
Laxmi Sargara, 18, wed Rakesh when she was just one and he was three.
Your thread title is wrong and misleading. That is the point. No one here was denying that it is not happening.
I am in no way saying that forceful (child) marriage is in any way good, just presenting the fact that it is indeed illegal by law in India, and not openly allowed as timetraveller stated.
As sad as it is, it's still only 10% in Rajastan that get forcefully married under the age of 18, and not the majority. (talking about the age here)
Wouldn't it be automatically rape to have *** with a female under 18 years old in the US ? Good luck.
I'd like to see your face if you had a 16 year old daugther that showed up with a boyfriend that is 10 years older than you right now.
She was 16 when she married a 50 year old man. I do believe that this should raise alot of concerns, and it's pretty sick. Especially considering that ****** intercourse would be a serious crime, and that a 16 year old isn't even a full legal person, yet can go such a big step.
Just the fact that they can marry, but ****** intercourse would OFFICIALLY be a serious offense shows how absurd it is.
You know why this thread should be closed?
"Since child marriages are not legal under India's Prohibition of Child Marriage Act"Is it time to crack down on Nations that openly allow Child marriages ...

simple disgusting
we shouldn't crack down, b/c its simply not our problem
if we criticize and condemn another country that we do business or have some other kind of relationship with, we wouldn't be able to do anything
no country would want to be associated with us also
