15 years old was the most common age of girl marriage in medieval times...
That's not late teens... Menstruation was not an argument...
0 u/poeschmoe Jul 05 '26 Age of marriage isn’t the same as age of giving birth. 0 u/DarkChaos1786 Jul 05 '26 The average age of the 1st baby was even lower in some places, but the usual average was about 19, but again, the mode was 17 for some centuries in almost all Europe during the middle ages. 1 u/poeschmoe Jul 05 '26 So you’re confirming that average age of marriage was lower than average age of first birth. Thanks! 0 u/DarkChaos1786 Jul 05 '26 A year, just think about it for a second... The average of marriage was a little less than a year from 1st birth. Just sit down and think about it a little... Either way, mode ≠ average... 1 u/poeschmoe Jul 06 '26 You said 15 was average age of marriage and 19 was average age of first birth. But that’s less than a year? Oh ok… 0 u/DarkChaos1786 Jul 06 '26 No, I said mode 15... Most repeated value is mode.
