This evening's dose of rage, brought to you by the front page of Youtube:

You have to ask yourself what is wrong with some cultures on this planet, that forcing a child into marriage with an adult man is considered acceptable. Let alone threatening her with death if she tries to get away.

Eleven years old is no age to be thinking about regular beatings and suicide.

I hope she gets out of there, and lives a long happy life.

As for her parents, and the disgusting patriarchal culture behind this? Fuck it... You know what I think. :x

Oh I forgot to add: fuck cultural relativism. I know my country has (huge) problems, but this is crazy shit.

This sorry episode brought to you by the country where a 10 year old got a divorce- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nujood_Ali

Also GJ, I've yet to hear of anyone defend this as a "cultural relativism" thing. If I do I'll smack 'em.
