In later apocrypha Mary was described as being about 12 when she was married into the household of Joseph who was the eldest person in the town.
So in reality you'd probably be watching a child being raped, either by someone in their household before falling pregnant and being married off to someone else before she started showing, or by an old guy who married her, or by one of his older male children after she was taken into his household.
So maybe less fun than you'd think.
