>IE young respectable men (21-25 yo ish) courting 16-18 yo teen girls
did it say that? I'm pretty sure it didn't say that... Though the men would typically have to be respectable for the parents to approve.
Tons of marriages happened VERY young before the 1920s; you're probably 19 or something and didn't even know that. It was about shaping the woman's mind so she didn't think to run away and live it up in Las Vegas or think she deserves better or become a lawyer and leave you for someone richer. It's the definition of "grooming". Even if they're 16 they're still pretty dumb and easy to mold, but that's legal today in many places

We're not allowed to tell women to shut the fuck up, pop babies, and stay in the kitchen.
