News that "Lost's" Doug Hutchison, 51, had married a 16-year-old girl sparked outrage this week -- both over the general skeeviness of it (the groom is four years older than the bride's father), and the fact that such a partnership is actually legal with parental permission in Las Vegas. (But a marriage between two gay adults? Nope.)
Is this topic about the 16 y/o and the 51 y/o getting married, or about gay marriage? Let me know right now so I know whether you're just trolling or if I should offer my opinion on the subject.
The age of consent in Nevada is 16 (the most common age among US states), which shows your thread title to be inaccurate - the sex is okay regardless of martial status.
It makes sense then that a 16 year old could get married with parental consent.
seems fair....he canges her diapers now and she changes his in a few years.....
