I think the picture here could be a screengrab of that "social experiment" video where they had two actors pose as an old man and his child bride doing a pre-wedding shoot, to see how bystanders will react. But yeah, absolutely f*****g VILE. Why are some people to hellbent on being allowed to marry children oh wait I know exactly why, don't I? *pukes*

This is not law yet, and let's hope it never becomes one. Approximately 25 female representatives are putting up a strong fight against it, but sadly, religious extremists hold the larger majority in the government. I can say with confidence that the majority of people in Iran do not support this. Having lived in the Middle East, I may not be an expert, but I have gained some understanding of the cultural and political landscape. People’s voices are often drowned out by the ruling powers, and while there are those who are trying to make a change, it’s an uphill battle.

Coming soon to a USA near you.

iraq just legalizace pedophilia....

I looked this up thinking it was fake. Sadly it's not. It gets worse the more you read. It wouldn't lower the age of marriage to 9 for just girls. Boys would also be able to be married at 9. It would legalize unregistered marriages which are often used to get around child marriage laws. It would also remove the rights of divorced women to stay in the marital home and get financial support from the ex-husband. Meanwhile "honor" killings, corporeal punishment of wife/kids, and marital r@pe are still legal. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2024/10/iraq-reject-changes-to-personal-status-law-which-would-allow-child-marriage-and-further-entrench-discrimination/

And child marriage is still legal in the majority of the US. So you can't be talking there OP

Sounds like parts of US

This picture was a publicity stunt I think in France to protest child mrriage in Lebanon not Iraq. Still bad.

This is incorrect https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2024/10/iraq-reject-changes-to-personal-status-law-which-would-allow-child-marriage-and-further-entrench-discrimination/

How could that ever be allowed?

Disgraceful, some parts of the world are beyond understanding, this is basically child abuse, but the child can't seek help to escape as it's part of the married laws under their belief system, that a husband is entitled to expect sex whenever he wants it, providing he is married to the female.. she has no say in the matter...

Coming soon to AMAGAca.

This goes for boys too?

This is today's fundamentalist Islam.

Absolutely perverted.

Is this an actual peado in the photo? It's implying it is.

Child abuse.

And that guy is no spring chicken either...

Sick

And yet I got called a bigot by some numbnuts on the architecture thread for saying its a s****y country due to the arseholes running it....
