@angelikaskoroszyn8495 first, a 20 year old will suffer more complications than 25 years old. So, should marriage be banned until 25? There's no single limit on complications. So, your first argument falls.
The same thing in your second argument. A 40 year old is much more mature and better decision maker than 20, so should marriage be banned till 40? And I'm a 20 year old, and I'm more mature and knowledgeable than all of my peers, and I rival my uncles when it comes to politics, economics, finance, sociology, history, psychology, etc... alot of people mature mentally before others. And. Can you define maturity? Being able to do decision or reaching an age, regardless of that ability? If based on ability, then which one? Like which ability, economic, intellectual, social, dating, etc... decision making argument is very flawed as you can see, only governments like the CCP can define it, because they have the monopoly on all definitions. Therefore, your second argument likely falls.
Third, your understanding of power imbalance is not quite right. Power imbalance is like when, for example, a man is 10x richer, much more famous, very much stronger, etc... than his partner, and therefore his partner will either lose or not even have any ability or will to resist or assert, since resistance will cause harm, or will remove a benefit (if that man was rich, she'll lose benefits).

@angelikaskoroszyn8495 i agree with you that people mature at different ages, and that was my original argument. What are the criterias for the maturity of somebody to be reached? And why would a specific body (the parliament) be able to decide that? Shouldn't it be an authority given to those children first, parents and relatives second, then maybe others? I, personally, believe that the age of consent shouldn't be any defined one, every institution should be able to dictate it for themselves, like schools deciding when to admit students, but most importantly, it should be based on mental abilities, where that student might only be admitted if he passed certain examinations. And about social matters, like marriage, parents should have more authority AS LONG AS their child is not independent, especially economically, and it should be with total consent.
This is my argument. I disagree with the fact that the government has dictated this social matter on us, when governments are supposed to confine themselves to political issues.
