  • Um...I think that bestiality and the adult/child relationship should remain out-lawed. I don't really see the issue in gay marriage, and incest....well that's a double-edged sword in my opinion. I don't see a problem having a sexual relationship with a distant collateral relative (example: second cousin, 1st cousin ONCE removed, third cousin, grandaunt/granduncle, ect) because there isn't usually a lot of genetic overlap between this type of relative and you (between 1/8 genetic overlap to almost nonexistent) because you and this relative only share a common ancestor and that could be anywhere from great-grandparents to great-great-great-grandparents ect. also genetic overlap tends to dilute 50% for every generation before/after yours due to genetic recombination. Now, the incest that I DO NOT particularly approve of is direct relative incest (example: father, mother, siblings (1/2 or full), aunts, uncles, first cousins, double first cousins, grandparents ect) because there isn't a whole lot of genetic overlap dilution from these generations (you share 1/2 of your genetic overlap with your parents, 1/2 with full-blooded siblings, 1/4 genetic overlap with half-siblings/aunts/uncles/grandparents ect). Also, who in their right mind would want to have sex with their mom or their dad or their brother/sister BY CHOICE? I understand that there are a lot of victims out there who were sexually assaulted out there by either a parent or other close relative during childhood or some other point in life, and I know that it wasn't the victims choice.
