While the United States has pledged to eliminate forced and child marriage by the year 2030, there are still 34 states where child marriage is still permitted.
This must be some shit that happens out in the sticks. I have lived my whole life in a metropolitan city and have never heard of a child marriage. 🤷♂️
Yeah but some of the victims do wind up in cities like my ex (I met her in her 30s after she divorced the adult man who married her when she was a teenager)
How can this still be a thing??
Republicans are pedophiles.
Considering it’s a thing in a great number of countries, including parts of Canada, my question to you is: how did you not know?
That wasn’t the point of my question.
I see, there needs to be like a /r for rhetorical
Yeah, that makes sense. I never thought of that.

I imagine that it is more common in rural areas with fewer eyeballs prying.
