You don't get it Vulcan. In my opinion, Mothra has been indoctrinated into moral relativism. There is no right/ wrong or good/ bad dichotomy because everything must be viewed from the perspective of the culture to which the person belongs, irrespective of the nation or the law. Culture is more valuable... except the Western Culture, which is to be treated with distain due to its inculcation towards cultural colonialism.
IMO then, Mothra supports FMG, irrespective of the law, irrespective of the girl's pain and suffering, irrespective of the risk to the girl's life... but because the culture, in question, has a long history of practicing this shocking abuse of minors. And that is why she is hiding behind words, such as
it's complicated issueMoral relativism will also allow for the total castration of young boys who will then serve as eunuch to the Sultan's Harem. Death by stoning, for women proved promiscuous, marital rape, when the wife dares to decline... and many other cultural norms that The West find abhorent. It's all morally relative which is why it's complicated.
