My missus showed it to me and we have just spent the whole afternoon shaking our heads in total dismay.
We had a 9 year old Ukrainian girl stay with us, when we accommodated her family for a year and she was so innocent and so childlike, as obviously she should have been.
But even trying to imagine her as being married, just seems completely incredulous.
It's insane.
I agree with Earlsdon massively though@Sky Blue Pete might want to change Ur emoji mate
Expect better than age of consent set at 9 for starters.Yes it is awful but it’s a religion that thinks women are inferior so what does anyone really expect
I agree with Earlsdon massively though
Oh no not at all it’s fine thanksApologies Pete I was on about the op emoji as it was the love one, obviously I know U didn't mean that was just letting U that's all but now it's changed will delete both my comments. I've just had a stressful week and everything is annoying me at the moment apologies
That's fine though isn't it, because they can just go and get another wife.Fucking disgusting.
And also dangerous. The likelihood of a 9-10y-o surviving childbirth (or the child) is really low. And even if they did their bodies would be ruined.
No just you Dim lad. This an interesting grown up thread/conversation not deliberately stoking racial stereotypes, although you and a couple of others will try their upmost hardest. Any religion/church which supports an under age sex/marriage should be immediately and comprehensively banned. Anyone practising it or encouraging it in UK should be jailed immediately. No evidence that this is not the case.@SkyBlueCharlie9 will be along soon to call you all racist and offensive
Can nobody see the issue with thousands of Iranian blokes coming into the country?
Is it allowed to be mentioned about things here or is it only if it's miles away?
One of my best mates Iranian, what point are you trying to make?
The point is that if you have thousands of people coming into the country unvetted who have grown up thinking it's OK to marry / have sex with 9 year olds then it's a worry. Especially if they then claim to be teenagers and get placed in schools.
He doesn't believe any of that. Should I let him know to change his attitudes to fit your stereotype?
Which is why I have said it doesn't mean that every Iranian is a sex offender.
Like I said, amazing how it's racist and people have an issue when you mention people moving from that country to here.
You literally just edited your post after I had responded. Why have you pulled the "racist" card when it hasn't been mentioned?
All people are capable of freedom of thought to hold their own views and opinions, regardless of who they are or where they're from. Hence....
Catfish killer used my photo as bait for others – victim
I'm not sure what your point is, I never said that there aren't sex offenders that are white.
I haven't pulled any card, just pointing out you jumped in on me when I pointed out about people coming here (or anywhere else) from a country where it's OK to marry and have sex with a 9 year old.
Likewise if somebody is brought up in a country where they wanted gays to be killed (but now they just go to prison for a long time) then they are more likely to grow up in a culture with a completely different view to it than here.
It always amazes me how so many people on the left side of the political spectrum are so shit scared to criticise Islam. It's practices and attitudes towards women, LGBT, refugees etc are all absolutely appalling and go against everything that the left are supposed to be - yet there is always just silence or deflection, like we are seeing on this thread.
If that's aimed at me, I think you'll find I'm vehemently against everything that Islam stands for, but I happen to have the ability to separate the ideology of a religion from individuals.
Sorry, that one is my bad.
I assume in Iran it's illegal to marry children?
Fuck me.
The legal age of marriage in Iran is 13 for girls & 15 for boysGuess it's legal.
I think it's even lower in some other countries isn't it? Certainly used to be.The legal age of marriage in Iran is 13 for girls & 15 for boys
Nigeria is the lowest in the world Otis...11 years of age.I think it's even lower in some other countries isn't it? Certainly used to be.
I find it insane.
It's like in over 20 centuries we have learnt nothing.Nigeria is the lowest in the world Otis...11 years of age.
Betond belief tbh.

I haven't seen anyone who's scared to criticise this.
The real problem is with the people on the right who think that Muslims all across the world, including in the U.K., believe and act in exactly the same way, and then use the most extreme examples to foment fear and hatred. It's both really stupid and needlessly offensive.
Also, it's a bit rich being lectured on women's rights, LGBTQ issues, or refugees and their legal rights, by anyone on the right (where they commonly seem to struggle with these concepts). It's almost as if there's a massive, hypocritical, blind spot.
A shit tonne of people in most countries don't get to decide what the government thinks or what their policies are. And that's in a democracy, never mind an authoritarian regime.
For example, I didn't agree with the previous governments transphobic stance, many on here did. There you go, prime example of people being able to hold their own views and opinions.
On a side note, is there a particular reason why you're talking about Iran when the article is about Iraq?
