Don't think being a grown man stopped them?
In Florida, 16,400 children, some as young as 13, were married from 2000-2017, which is the second highest incidence of child marriage after Texas.
In Texas from 2000 to 2014, almost 40,000 children were married.

But lets not get too far off topic.
You don't think an 18 year old kissing 17 year old is a crime?
What about if it was a 16 year? A fifteen year old, when do things become a crime?
