But also, why- because it's been done in the past- does this make it somehow acceptable that young women marry old men without choice? (I am carefully avoiding the Anna Nicole Smiths!)

I don't draw any arbitrary line between young/old. I also have no problem with polygamy or any other type of "non standard" relationship. Where I do draw the line is between force and consent. Yes means yes and no means no, and rape or any other non consensual arranged marriage or sexual contact is always wrong..
