Egypt bans 92-year-old's marriage

Quote:
The Egyptian authorities have banned a 92-year-old man from marrying a 17-year-old girl, the Egyptian al-Akhbar newspaper has reported.

The ministry of justice invoked a law which says the age gap between spouses should not exceed 25 years.

Egypt brought in the law prohibiting the marriage of elderly men to very young girls during the Gulf oil boom.
BBC NEWS | World | Middle East | Egypt bans 92-year-old's marriage

This seems a bit weird, a girl wanting to marry someone that is 75 years older than her!!! old enough to be her granddad or maybe even great granddad

Would have to agree nivek, it's like that Anna Nicole Smith marrying that really old man and then getting all of his money when he died... the old man loves it but that seems pretty wrong to me.

Well that's been happening for ages...I guess someone had to step in and stop the madness, but it'll never end no matter what law is passed
