This whole line of reasoning is insane, that there needs to be some sort of female slavery system (forced early marriages) to keep boys and men from raping women. There is a much simpler solution to the problem of rape in India. It comes from feminist groups there, and I actually agree with them that, given the attitudes of the society they live in, it might be the only thing that would work. Castrate the rapists, and put a non-removable-for- life tattoo on their foreheads that says "RAPIST." That would effectively remove the rape mentality from the gene pool, and the rapists from society.
