So what would think of a culture besides ours where the marriage age is 13? What would you think of a culture in which 13 year olds are married to much older men all the time with little incident?

I would say that they have the worst quality of live, lowest life expectancy, lowest literacy rates, highest rates of malnourishment, infant deaths, and the highest percentage of population in military service. In short, they are uncivilized, uneducated, unemployed, war-mongering, and shit-eating apes.
How's that?
Name one good aspect a culture which forces 13 year old children to take on the responsibilities of grown women.

Sometimes its difficult to determine the legality of certain features of the written law. It seems that each region approaches this framework differently and as a result, the terminology gets somewhat confusing.

Terminology is a problem with
all law, but I was quite clear when I said "Rape is quite explicit in specifying lack of consent. Child exploitation does not even mention consent."
Children do not understand consent, and hence there can not even be any discussion of consent. The adult is always in control, and if she or he chooses to abuse this control, they are sick and twisted individuals.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
