E perché mai dovremmo scandalizzarci? Ormai i mariti italiani si preoccupano di farsi penetrare da uomini travestiti da donne (come nell'immortale film Brutti, sporchi e cattivi, di Ettore Scola, un Orfeo nero ambientato a Monte Ciocci), invece di perpetuare la specie. Perché mai scandalizzarsi se un arzillo somalo di ben 112 anni ha deciso di spulzellare una vergine di 17 anni? L'uomo ha 114 tra figli e nipoti. L'umanità continua a oscillare tra il De Sade delle 120 giornate di Sodoma, il Sade di Juliette, ovvero la prosperità del vizio, e il De Sade di Justine, ovvero le disavventure della virtù. Sarebbe preferibile trovare altri punti di riferimento.
BBC: Hundreds of people have attended a wedding in central Somalia between a man who says he is 112 years old, and his teenage wife.
Ahmed Muhamed Dore - who already has 13 children by five wives - said he would like to have more with his new wife, Safia Abdulleh, who is 17 years old.
"Today God helped me realise my dream," Mr Dore said, after the wedding in the region of Galguduud.
The bride's family said she was "happy with her new husband".
Mr Dore said he and his bride - who is young enough to be his great-great-grand-daughter - were from the same village in Somalia and that he had waited for her to grow up to propose.
"I didn't force her, but used my experience to convince her of my love; and then we agreed to marry," the groom said.
