Girls should be married off at 14 and no later than 16 to a 20+ year old man who has established himself financially. This gives women zero chance to be suckered into the modern sexual degeneracy culture and instead encourages them to become good wives and mothers. It would also help our flagging fertility rates by starting families earlier and thus creating the opportunity for more children to be created.

Agreed. Just like in good old times.
Certainly much better than all these cock carousel roasties who all turn into bitter feminists.

12 is crazy but this idea that adult hood should continue to be delayed more and more so you have 30 yr olds just feeling like they are getting there is also crazy and a depopulation effort.
Many famous people got married and had kids at 14 and 16 in american history.
Hell an eighth grade final exam was much more difficult than a high school or college test today. People were doing working apprencticeships at 12. They WERE adults..
I am wondering if there shouldnt be some demand that you must have started raising two kids by age 20 or something before you can participate in any federal programs like student loans or mortgages etc. Perhaps exceptions for those physically unable but perhaps not. It would really change things for the better.
