"In one village, I asked a large group of men about rape. They insisted that they honor women and deplore rape — and then added that the best solution after a rape is for the girl to be married to the rapist, to smooth over upset feelings."
The father of one of our kids actually said the same thing to us. He told us how, years ago, his niece was raped and that he helped get her married to her rapist to solve the problem.
