UNICEF reports that worldwide, every year:
9M adolescent girls are subjected to forced sex and 12M girls are married before they turn 18.

The high numbers of girls forced into sex and in child marriages may stem from laws such as #Article522 of the Lebanese Penal Code.
Article 522 states that any man convicted of sexual assault, abduction, or statutory rape could avoid the minimum punishments if a valid contract of marriage is provided.
Surprisingly, over 50 countries are known to have had these so-called “marry-your-rapist” laws. While some countries, including Lebanon have appealed this horrific law, many others have yet to provide this simple right to women.
