Indeed surprising for me, the trick being that it’s not 18 when considering “marriage with parents and judicial approval”, which are probably pretty rare but definitely possible in way more countries than i would have bet
Mostly the same in the US, most of the states that are 18 below require parental consent. Still not awesome but it’s not like a bunch of teenagers are getting married willy nilly.
Allowing children to be sold off as child brides with parents consent is not an improvement. Especially since they cannot legally get divorced until they are 18
Let’s be honest here, the United States aren’t the standard they claim to be.
You European? They don’t have a leg to stand on here. Marriage age is buck wild over there! Europe! What’s up with that?!
If not, check your country! Bet money that neither marriage nor age of consent is pegged at 18.
French Canadian.
Ah! 16 across the board. I assume that’s national not provincial law?

This country is littered with pedophiles and 48 year olds who say “age is just a number!” Just before they marry a 14 yr old.

I think you’re arguing with someone who completely agrees with you.
