Statutory rape

First of all, don't read too much into this post. Take it for what it is.

Why is it that if you have consensual sex with a girl under the age of 18 you can be convicted of rape, but if you marry her, everything is fine? What is it about marriage that makes consensual sex with a minor ok?

Just thought I'd ask.

Good topic, Chris. I never stopped to think about that.
