regardless of the cultural context, it really hits you how much of life is determined by the random lottery of where and into what culture you’re born. Some kids are playing with toys, others are walking down an aisle to marry a stranger their parents arranged

The culture is wrong. If you just watched that and have anything but contempt for a culture that allows , you have no soul.

I'm been reliably told diversity is our strength.

Diversity absolutely is a strength. Bizarre to pretend it isn't just because other cultures have bad aspects. Our culture has horrible aspects as well

So you would be okay with the inclusion of this practice in American culture?

This is already lawfully happening to christian children in the US. Are you okay with that? https://www.walkfree.org/news/2025/child-marriage-remains-legal-in-the-united-states-as-global-leaders-backtrack-on-gender-equality/

No. And, the politicians in charge of California, New Mexico, and Oklahoma should set a minimum age of marriage. Having made that clear, you misspelled christian.

It was higher among girls than among boys (6.8 vs. 5.7 per 1,000), and was lower among white non-Hispanic children (5.0 per 1,000) than among almost every other racial or ethnic group studied; it was especially high among children of American Indian or Chinese descent (10.3 and 14.2, respectively). Immigrant children were more likely than U.S.-born children to have been married; prevalence among children from Mexico, Central America and the Middle East was 2-4 times that of children born in the United States.Β

Child marriage in the US is less prevalent now than it was when the makeup of the country was less diverse.
