The problem with these temporary marriages is that there are always people who abuse them.
I remember reading some cases where fathers would sell their daughters into these temporary marriages. The marriages would last for a couple of days, then when it was over they would just sell them to someone else. Unfortunately these marriages don't really seem to benefit the woman at all.
I would agree that if it was what the woman wanted, sure it would be great. But honestly, in a lot of places where these marriages take place the women are not treated as equal. Do you think most families will give permission for their daughter to marry some guy for a week?
