So they said Liz was going to be 16 in 3 months, but when did they give Joshua's age? I don't remember reading anything about him being old enough to be her father. I can't even remember Leonard's age tbh.
I do remember reading about the difference in lifespan for the elf prince & Miriam. But there's usually an age gap when an elf is involved.

Okay wait I'll stop you right here, 16 is not the most common age to be married in the US or in any western civilised country...
(even less 12!)
I'd invite you to look at this wiki page and to rethink what you're saying...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_age_at_first_marriage
In the US, women marry on average at 27 years old, while men marry on average at 29 years old.
Extremely far from the 16 you were implying is "common".
As for western European countries (I checked for UK, France and Germany but I'd wager others are the same), marriage for men and women both is on average above 30 years old.
You can't even marry in the US before you're 18, and in some states before you're 21! (same for aforementioned European countries)

@Allexio
I don't remember ever saying where there are marriages with 12 yo and I don't know how that lead you to believe it was some western country but since you want a place it is in "Asia".
Also there was a investigation that found that mariage of 16 yo are more common in the USA what you have there is the avarage age not the most common age nor the youngest age. I attempted to find the article but couldn't, it was from 2012 and most of those marriages are not made public by the cartory which could mean that they are not counted when taking those numbers for the wikipedia list.
Still I don't care whether you believe it or not and it doesn't matter, just verify your information before presenting it next time.
Another thing is that making assumptions on what someone else said is very stupid and shows you never had the intention of doing anything else than "proving the other wrong" without caring whether you were using wrong information or not.
@LVLBeginner
Nothing is right nor wrong, they are seen as right or wrong by the person based on the culture they live in. An example would be eating other humans, it is wrong in our culture but right in a cannibalistic tribe. I'm also not saying something is right nor wrong just that it happens. That you think that someone talking that something happens is advocating for said thing just show how pathetic you are.

@Allexio First, you actually can get married in the US in some states before 18 with parental consent so you're not exactly 100% right either. Also giving statistics about marriage now doesn't exactly change anything about what we said about the past. So really your argument amounts to nothing.
@LVLBeginner What you've said, is just really dumb. Firstly, marriage at such a young age in those times was out of necessity. Because women were pretty likely to die giving birth to a child. What's more wrong, marrying the woman early enough that she can have a couple of children safely(relative to the standards at the time), or waiting long enough that her first child is in the risky area that increases the mother's chance of dying?
Also, while I do not condone pedophilia, using that as an argument is really really dumb you know? The reason why is that the cut of age of 18, is an entirely arbitrary number that has nothing to do with body development. Genetic development stops after puberty. So genetically you would be an adult then. Physically people don't tend to stop growing at 20, so physically you'd be full grown then. And as for mentally? Your brain stops developing around the mid 20s so you'd be an adult then.
Notice how 18 is only close to one of those and 2 years early. You need to realize that the concept of when someone is a minor is a social construct of the time, and is less about true right and wrong, and more about what society finds acceptable at the time. This can be highlighted by the fact that in america people can legally drive(which means trusting them with their life and everyone else on the road) before they are allowed to make a decision about having sex. And last I checked them messing up sex isn't going to result in a bunch of people dead or hospitalized.
@Allexio @LVLBeginner And a final point for both you fools who think you've said something smart. This manage was written in Japan where some parts still have a legal age of consent as low as 13 with 16 to 18 being the more common choice of prefectures. So 16, even by modern standards in some parts of Japan is fine. So don't talk about legality or right and wrong, when all you know is your standards and no one else's.

@WillLi Just for the record, just because 18 is also legal in some places, 18 years old is still a child. I'm pretty sure I said right near the beginning of this that just because something is legal, doesn't mean it's right. Also this is a fantasy manga, written now. The reasons some old perverts made up before now has no bearing here.
@LVLBeginner If you're not going by law then you're going by your standards. And guess what? Your standards mean jack shit to the rest of the world. I've made my case how you're just wrong in legal matters. You can have your own standards, but realize your own standards and values are worthless to the audience and author and even country that the book was written in. And frankly no one gives a shit.

Actually, legal age of marriage in Japan is 16 for women. And that's *with* parental approval.
Nowhere do I see that in some parts of Japan can you marry at 13 years old.
"Article 731 to 737 of the Japanese Civil Code stipulates the following requirements:
The male partner must be 18 years of age or older and the female partner must be 16 years of age or older.
A person who is under 20 years of age cannot get married in Japan without a parent’s approval."
So errr, thanks for proving that you *do* pull your info straight outta your arse.
(for the record, you are right, some states in the US allow marriage at 14 YO, but there's only 2. There's only 3 states that allow at 15 YO. All the other ones have 16 YO as a minimum...)
