Considering people under 18 children is exaggerating, 13 (or whenever you hit puberty) is about the age when people can get a job, get married, and fight in war if it weren’t for society brainwashing and labeling them as children, history is with me on this one.
In many countries minors (<18) can be in military service. In Israel and the US it is from 17 years. Why should exactly HAMAS in a population with about half children (persons under 18 years) make a difference?
I am not encouraging 13 year olds - or people of any age - to marry people outside their age group, I think that’s wrong under normal circumstances.
Edit: considering how fast people grow at the age of 13 their age group would be… 14 Year olds max I guess?
Edit 2: duo to how the laws of a nation cover a very wide range of people, I think we should - for the purposes of law - go the safe route and give these rights at 16, if nations normalize 16 year olds having sex then allowing marriage should be a no brainer.
Also someone else mentioned alchohol so I have to elaborate, in my perfect country, alcohol would be banned in all its - non medical - forms regardless of age.
Edit 3 : I have no idea what would qualify as an “abnormal circumstance” before anyone asks.
Edit 4 : I think porn should be banned in all its forms as well before anyone asks.
Edit 5 : I just googled IDF and libertarians and understood the meme, I just saw “12 year olds are not children” and decided to share an opinion that I still hold.
Edit 6 : If you think about it in the context of restructuring society in the way I want it to be - which isn’t detailed in this comment - it sounds like a really good idea, but sadly society is corrupted and almost beyond repair.
So you agree with sexualising children as long as they’re being paired together??? But only 16 at which point it should be ‘normalised’?? This whole ‘opinion’ is disgusting.
I don’t expect many to agree, as my opinion is based on me not considering 13 and 14 Year olds children, what is really the difference between 16 - again, to be on the safe side - year olds and 18 year olds that give the latter that much more freedom?
Also I despise pre marriage sex if that adds anything to the conversation.
Adding that you want to bang children but only once a priest gives you ownership does not make it better no. Why on earth would you think it would? Gross.
