Poll: Is incest wrong if it's consensual?

[retyopy]

[It's not morally wrong.
Do whatever you want (If it's consensual)
If a child comes out of it, that's your problem.

Exactly. Not much to add here, really.
The only argument against it is the whole children thing. But that's it.

Even that is cagey, cause then the principle applies that the only people who can have children are those who are the most likely to produce healthy, superior offspring.

Neither are great choices, but one trumps.

I read the title. I turned my twin sister. I asked her what she thought about it.

She says it's gross. I'm inclined to agree.

2 out of 2 twins agree: Incest is just weird.

My twin agees with you, and I agree with he. So I suppose 4/4 twins.

Fuck how can you ask a sibling that question!?!? I'd run the fuck away if I was asked that from a sibling.

We're really close. I despise her, but we are really close.

 

[Gasaraki]

I fail to see why. If both people give their consent and old enough that it's valid, then it's no one's business but their own. It's one of the stupider victimless crimes to be honest.

 

[dj Facchiano]

Meh. People should be able to do whatever the hell they want without being judged as long as nobody is hurt in the process. Just my opinion :/

 

[Shoggoth2588]

Out of sight, out of mind. It doesn't happen in my family nor has it and if it has I sure as hell don't want to know about it. So long as it's consensual and the two know how to not talk about it than sure, go for it. I don't care.

 

[Wicky_42]

Yeah, I'd say it's pretty wrong, but that's the values that I hold... and which the law holds. Along with under-age sex and paedophilia etc. Doesn't matter if it's consensual, I still reject it, personally.

 

[Loop Stricken]

I'll say it before and I'll say it again; people can do whatever they like so far as all parties consent.

Really close. Just not that close. squick

Don't... just don't.

 

[Nudu]

You know, if incest came up during my family dinner, I think dinner would be canceled.

 

[DarkRyter]

Other than fugly mutant babies, nothing really wrong with it. No victims, no crime.

Remove chances of fugly mutant babies (birth control), and boom, you're in the clear.

 

[Jegsimmons]

yes it is wrong because that is disgusting and kinda pathetic that you need a family member to get laid.


also, why did i even check the forums today?

 

[Rawne1980]

Legally I know it's legal in some places to marry your cousin.

I'm not even going to get into the moral view.

Lets just say it's a bit wierd. I can quite honestly say that given the choice between sleeping with any of my female relatives or smothering my genitals in fish paste and dangling them over a tank of hungry piranah then i'd have to say ... I hope those piranah are hungry cos i'm giving them a feast.

 

[kickyourass]

I don't think it's wrong, but I do think it's gross.

 

[Loop Stricken]

I don't believe its wrong but they shouldn't be allowed to have children as they could be messed up due to genetics and that science stuff I hear so much about up.

Deep, man.

Let alone that said defects could occur within ANY delicious genetic soup that any two humans cook up, regardless of relationship proximity.

The main problem with incest is if you happen to carry recessive genes that cause health problems, if you spring out a sprog with a partner of close relation they'd likely have those same recessive genes, and those genes are likely to be much less recessive in said kiddie.

That's not to say that any child born of this unusual union is going to be crash band wallop horrible cripple mutant, just that it's more likely than otherwise.
Successive inbreeding over multiple generations amplifies this risk considerably, which is where all the trouble starts.

The occasional one-off case isn't going to be all that damaging unless you get really really unlucky. but if you're going to get THAT unlucky you likely have a condition that could cause problems no matter who you're getting your freak on with.
Hell, one could make a case that it STRENGTHENS familial genes by reinforcing one geneset with a second copy, but I don't know too much about that so I can't comment with any sort of authority.

 

[Damura]

@Rawne1980: You'd rather feed your genitals to a piranha?

 

[retyopy]

I hope those piranah are hungry cos i'm giving them a feast.

What are you implying about your genitals?

 

[sage42]

As many have said it's a moral thing, so if both parties consent and are not morally against I say who cares so long as no child is born from it, again like others have said this is forcing a child to live with a very high chance both physical and mental defects.

EDIT: After more thought it's still up to a persons morals if they wasn't to have a child with a close relation. That far mind you really creeps me out but again so long as both parties consent and know of the possibilities then who cares.

 

[Loop Stricken]

I don't think children should be born out of such activities, the chances for mutation and genetic clusterfucks goes through the roof...

It really doesn't.

Hm, physical disfigurement over a night of awkward sex.
Yeah, you sound healthy and worthy of immolation emulation.

 

[Hagi]

Yes it is.

Besides castration there's no 100% sure way of preventing pregnancy. So there's always a chance for a partner to get pregnant. And if she does then there's a high risk of birth defects.

Now, I don't care if the idiotic parents stuffer from that. But the thing is that the child does suffer from it and that he'll be receiving tax money to help.

So in the end we're left with a situation which provides absolutely no benefit whatsoever (there's thousands of women out there, do you really have to screw your sister? With all the options available there really is nobody else?) and there's a relatively high risk of having a child who'll suffer from his/her birth defects and tax payers who have to pay for that.

You're not alone on this planet. There's other women out there to screw and there's other people out there who also end up paying for your mistakes.

Any decision which does not take into account that you're not freaking alone on this planet is wrong.
