Why this recent trend of little girls i mean younger age in hurry about this ALTER thing even when they know little about marriage?

iice:

Is it recent? Thought that has been going on for years

abi o, what should we do, wait for u guys to use n dump us before marriage? abeg

@poster,
which age are u defining as "younger age"
if am 24 n married, is anything wrong wt that? perhaps to u
or u want me to wait until am 30 so i can have pregnancy complications

@ poster. she has a point man.

as weird as it is to me (though i understand to some point) 24 ain't too young to marry. with higher chances of all sort of health complications associated with late pregnancy and such, it would make sense.

i think what you're trying to point out is if they are physcologically prepared for marriage (which i think is seriously lacking)

yeah bro, maturity is all that matters

efuah:

yeah bro, maturity is all that matters

As much as maturity matters, the REAL Crux of the matter is how every virtue (courtesy of our generation) has now become relative. Ask a Sweet 16 who's more mature? An 18 yr BAD GUY who seems to be plucking money like tomorrow should take a hike and can deliver, or a 26yr old who's yet to reach any of these? Success of the fittest blinds them to true virtue.

i guess that 8yrs is enough for someone (her) to be "matured" for marriage (16 - 24)?. My thoughts, as always.
