Thread: Incest question

Both above the age of consent, I really don't care what or who they screw now or your situation so long as they keep it to themselves.

This thread will take a walk to Extended Discussion.

Sure, it could be legal...but if any brothers and sisters want to be marrying each other they might seek psychiatric help first

I don't see a problem, unless it nonconcensual sex. If both agree and they're both older than whatever agerestriction their country has for sex, I think it's cool.

edit: provided that them getting babies is possible, without higher chances of downers and whatever.

I don't think incest should be illegal. Laws against incest are worthless laws. If Bubba Joe and his sister Melba Sue want to have raunchy trailer sex, they are going to do it, and Sheriff Lobo is not going to stop them. However, they are disgusting creatures.

i would think it should be legal. and i wouldn't look down upon people for doing it if they did it out of actually being in love with each other. if it was just for sex that might be a little strange but not I still wouldn't call them awful, horrible people. what makes your sister's vagina different from some trampy hooker's at the bar? (other than obvious disease and virus possibilities)

I, however, would most definitely not want to have sex with my sister

Apparently marriage between cousins is favorable in many cultures and there is little risk of birth defects.

The only reason we think incest is disgusting is because of the genetic consequences. If I woke up tomorrow to find that incest no longer had any such consequences then I'd still be disgusted by it because it's been so ingrained in my mind as one of the worst taboos. But if it had never, in the history of our species, had such consequences then it would not be taboo and we'd probably all look at family members as potential sexual partners.
