Dear Iraq,

"protecting Children" is very laudable,

but when what you're protecting them from

is "immoral relationships", or what we call

being raped by older men

and your solution is to lover the age of consent

from eighteen to NINE YEARS OLD

so that they can be married before they're raped

I suggest that the problem is not the children

but the fucking Shia law that allows men to do this

because they only want a virgin.


To repeat one commenter

when told of the news,

Fuck you, Iraq. Fuck you.
