If the 'limiting yourself' comment was aimed at me, I'll thank you not to imply that I would support medieval white europeans forcing little kids to marry them, or fucking children. I don't approve of children being sexually exploited full stop.
And there is no way in HELL that muhammid wasn't in an exploitative 'relationship'. I should know, I have been in a relationship with a girl a lot younger than myself once, so the nusances are something I'm not in the dark about. One of my two ex fiancees, and the girl I should , as we were going to, have married.
When not talking about paedophilia, such as pighammid forcing a 'betrothal' on a six (or nine, either way it doesn't fucking matter, either makes him a dirty nonce), but about (modern and bilaterally voluntary) relationships between older and younger partners, the key is PARTNER. I might, eventually have gotten a chance to say 'no', (for her age, I must confess, she was somewhat of a predatory bugger , and VERY 'forward' for an autie, like nothing else I've ever seen in anybody, ever, on or off the spectrum. She didn't ask me, she just walked on over and then went ahead and did as she felt like) and when we first met I didn't even get to SPEAK at first, before I found her tongue forced down my throat. Ok, I admit, I didn't fight back too hard, as my fiancee had me captivated, one of those instantly knowing a person is your soulmate situations.
Pighammid on the other hand...he was MUCH much older than a SMALL CHILD, whatever aisha's precise age, she herself says she was very young!, and she a child, whilst he, was a powerful barbarian warlord. That is not an exchange of tenderness, support and love, and each making an effort for the balance of power to be, and to remain as precisely bilateral as we could contrive together for it to be. Just think to yourself and ask 'what would have happened had that little preteen child aisha decided to say 'no, pighammid, I don't want you, I don't want anything to do with you and screw 'marriage', fuck off and die', and been unswerving in her desire not to have any form of interaction with this incalculably more powerful, commanding and well-able to back his demands with force dirty old paedophile 'man', muhammid, PBUH (porcine-faeces be upon him)
If he decided, as he obviously did, that he was going to take (and in the sense of 'take' here I mean as in the sense of 'taking' signified in the latin word 'raptus', cognate with 'raptor', 'rapture' and yes, 'rape') aisha, and the latter wanted the dirty disgusting smelly old warlord (Pork scratchings Be Up Him) to piss off and go find some other toddler to molest instead, just how much power would this small child have to effect that, taking into account the typical mysogynistic attitude in islam, and the way that the desires of women, adult females included are simply shit all over and viewed as worth less than dirt.
Little child.
Powerful and influential (and much older, filthy old pervert) barbarian warlord in command of an army and fanatical followers.
See a little imbalance of power here, maybe just a teeny tiny bit? if that kid had said no, it probably would never even have gotten out into the history books, because history, as history itself tells us so many times over, is written by the victors. He'd have (and IMO probably did) just take what he wanted, he did in pretty much every other respect, I don't see why shagging little children would be any different to the dirty bastard, Pour Bacon Upon Him.
Face it, the guy was a paedophile , and a dirty, disgusting old groper that ought to have been tied to a stake and publicly whipped until his nasty, child molesting little pencil dick was torn to little bloody shreds of meat, hanging off his flensed pelvis. And preferably set on fire, to give him some advance taste of what hell is like before he got there.
Middle ages? do I somehow have, for some reason to 'approve of' child rape in those days by the english and europeans, just because I decry pighammid's paedophilia? no, do I fuck. And that is not something I need to defend. I don't like nonces, no matter who, when or where they are.
