Age difference in marriage

I don’t think there should be any legal limitations in terms of age difference for marriages. HOWEVER I do support a minimum age on getting married. Some people mature sooner, some do later. But I think by 21 most people should be smart enough to make that decision for themselves. So I would set that limit at 21.

I do find marriages with age differences of 15 years and more ridiculous, because you’d never be at the same mental level. But from a strictly legal point of view they are ok. I just don’t think they can really work out.
