16. girls are always property in low-life societies/repressive-religious societies

They are happy to have girls when they are little because they help around the house & help care for the younger ones, BUT when they hit puberty, it changes.. they become an "attractive nuisance...like a swimming pool.....nice to have around but dangerous too, because they could get pregnant and their child then becomes YOUR responsibility, so of course then they must be bartered off & out of the house ASAP..they are someone else's "problem" then.

The sad thing is that in later life it's not the sons who end up being caretakers of callous parents...it's usually the daughters..
