A Swedish Love Story

A 14-year-old child bride from Syria came to Sweden and became pregnant with her husband, who is also her cousin. Now a Swedish court has approved of her marriage, because she appears "mature," and for religious and cultural reasons.
The girl was married off to a cousin when she was only twelve years old. In Sweden, she has been placed with his aunt and her family.
The social service authorities in Sweden thought her marriage is completely outrageous and took it to the justice system.
But the judge does not think there is anything wrong with it, since she was brought up with another religious and cultural perception of what is right and wrong.
In addition, the girl, according to court, is precocious for her age and early matured, so the court does not see anything wrong.

Sounds like a normal day in Florida.

Curious what the courts would do in the same case but with Swiss citizens who were born in the country and not religious.

All cultures are equal. Who are we to criticize another culture?

Courts here would do the same thing and anyone that thinks different is a damned fool.

They have relations brother to sister. A cousin would be considered not related enough.

I'm surprised he waited so long to marry her. She's almost passed her prime according to Muhammad.
Haji scum.

They can keep their disgusting culture in their own country and live out their days. By your logic, I'm assuming you'd be ok with taking a vacation to one of these countries with your 12 year old daughter and allowing her to marry an adult man if she found love. I guarantee that there's no way in hell you'd let that happen.

I would never impose my white male patriarchal views on my child. My children will be raised in a non-binary inclusive household where they will be free to explore their own gender identity and sexuality without such Cis-centered patriarchal norms like "appropriate age for relationships."

Who are we to judge other cultures?
