    I mean, the two Big Problems with incest are 1) power relations and 2) genetic disorders, so if two consenting adults come together who are just far enough apart for their kids not to be at risk then what's the problem?

    The daughter shit is creepy though, why would you even think about saying that.

      Alright maybe I'm the liberal fascist on this here but if two family who have grown up together even if consenting adults without power imbalance hookup that shits weird. And I'd goa aa far as ban that shit.

      The only way I probably wouldn't find it weird is if say 3rd (whatever would be 3 degrees of separation like last Great grandparents being only linked blood family) cousins who had never met and accidentally matchup together at a bar and find out years later theyre somewhat related

      Yeah cousin marriage only became a taboo during the eugenics movement when the eugenicists vastly oversold the risk of genetic illnesses. It was completely normal and carried no stigma before that. It's still common in a lot of cultures.

      I don't know, man. The whole thing just has a lot of :frothingfash: incel energy. Trying to explain away the very well-known downsides to a "pure" bloodline. Doggedly justifying a very insular set of social relations. Being horny for immediate relatives, generally speaking.

      Yeah, I get that sometimes horny kids do horny things and that's no reason to panic. But to have some creepy dude waving around a medical degree and pounding the table in defense of even mild incest is such a bad look.
