So, Famicommander, almost every allegation you made was false. I'm not expecting an apology, I know we won't get it, but you could bow your head in shame MoFo.

It was a different time. The average age for marriage was 20 for women and 22 for men. Can't judge by today's standards, especially since the age of consent now is only a year higher.

Actually read that girls got married at a younger age and that it was normal in those days
Many of those were fixed marriages of course
The times they are a changing’

[Chaos]

I was guessing
Is that a fact
Forget just read that in Mississippi 13 was of legal age in the 60’s
Even without legal consent

If you marry a 17 year old that you met when she was 10, you are a scumbag.

Period.

I take comfort in the fact that you therefore agree that Dotard is a scumbag for telling a prepubescent child in 1992 (when he was 46) that he'd date her in ten years.

None of them were underage you pathetic lying mutt, and he wasn't that much older at the time. The first was 3 years younger than him, but you conveniently ignore that to spew your bs.

Jealousy will get you nowhere, mongo.

Parental consent

Hence legal.

If Jerry Lee Lewis could legally marry a 13 year old then how can 17 be illegal?

Parental consent

Not sure what the legal age was back then
I thought it was 18
