Even the Messengers biggest enemies and critics at his time did not attack the concept of marriage in Islam. They all knew he was a truthful honest man, the only thing they could do was try to lie about the Qur'an and claim it was sorcery. They were challenged many times in the Holy Book to try come up with a scripture just as divine and powerful but they couldn't. Bear in mind this was 7th century Arabia where the classic literature was well understood and highly valued.
In some countries the legal age of consent is 18, meaning that is the age when some governments decide a person is mature enough to be in a sexual relationship. 1400 years ago, there were 18 year olds leading nationwide armies in some of the biggest battles in World History. Go and learn about Osama bin Zayd. They were Men, not boys.

did anyone ever say there was a difference, because I didn't and I sure as hell don't think it's okay for neither a young boy or girl.What's the difference between kids messing around & having sex at a young age (majority of the time with someone their own age) vs a kid being in a married/sexual relationship with an adult, you ask?? It should be obvious
Well anyway, if you'd let your young daughter marry older men then that's none of my business
"The Prophet asked Abu Bakr for 'Aisha's hand in marriage. Abu Bakr said "But I am your brother." The Prophet said, "You are my brother in Allah's religion and His Book, but she (Aisha) is lawful for me to marry."
Bukhari 7:62:18
Ultimately the Prophet and his companions were just men of their times. They were just a product of their environment and culture so they acted the way people did in the 6th century I. e. marrying young girls. No different to the Romans or any other culture at the time.
The difference is nobody today is trying to live like the Romans did but Muslims do try and live like the Sahaba and prophet.
Muslims here are correct in this saying that those were 6th century values but that contradicts the notion that Islam is for all times.
Religious values (Christianity too) are incompatible with 21st century values.
PS: That doesn't mean everything the West do is 100% right but at least they're open to evolving culturally and socially, whereas Muslims still try and justify crappy shit that was done in the 6th century.

They kept asking if I was gay for months. Cause the only reason someone would leave Islam is if they were gay, apparently. They'd make little remarks every once in a while to try to trick me into saying arabic Islamic phrases and stuff like that. For example, when I sneezed, they'd be like, "Say alhamdulilah" then stared at me.
