Thread: should incest be legal?

incestlover said MsMuffintops said Nibbles brought up a point. There's all sorts of relationships people will have--- family, friend, professional, and romantic. A lot of people have a hard time mixing friendship and romance for fear of fucking up the bond they already have, and making it awkward. And if things don't work out things may never be the same. Perhaps people shouldn't mix family and romance. Family is already a strong bond on its own. You can fuck it up 4 lyfe if you choose to turn your relationship with a family member into something more and it ends up not working out. Family is blood and law, you can't get rid of them. That's how I see family. Just... a no-go zone. They're family and that's all they should be. Also sorry to sound rude, but the whole idea of a parent and child romance is just... I don't know, it feels unnatural to me. A parent and child bond is already one of the strongest. If it turns into something more, I might question the emotional and mental health of one or both of them. Is it the child failing to move on and separate themselves from their parent? Is it the parent failing to let go? Is it one or both of them trying to effortlessly fill a void they feel they can't fill elsewhere? Click to expand... See this is part of the reason I posted this. Cause people like that can state their opinion so profoundly. Good comments everyone! But just remember, opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. We should also respect the next persons opinion, and the pprevious ones. As for proof that someone asked for from me, no one has any proof of how the world was populated. I was going by the most popular one. Click to expand... Really? On such a serious note, you'll use opinion are like assholes so respect mine? I don't have to respect your opinion, just note that you have one and I can dismiss it. That's the asshole part. And using the most popular answer to something when it's not proven or disproven shows sheep mentality. Think for yourself. incestlover said The minimum age to consume alcohol in the US is 21. The minimum age in canada is 19. Do you think that age restrictions or laws period stop people from doing what they want? You don't have to like someones opinion but you should respect their right to having their own opinion. As for the power an adult has over their child, there is plenty of relationships between one person in their 20's and the other is in their 40's or 50's or more. So I guess while we are at it, might as well make it illegal for them to be involved in a sexual relationsship too? Since one is 2 or 3 times the age of the other person. Click to expand... Family will always be completely different from meeting random people on the street that you happen to have a sexual attraction to. Age there doesn't matter because there is no blood between them. Just sex, which is natural for all animals, especially humans. Age of consent was invented because random old men and women thought sex was cool with young people who didn't have the mental capacity to understand the ramifications of their actions or the mental impact it would have on their sexuality. Leading into that, there are age laws for a reason So stupid kids don't die at younger ages because they wanna be cool and drink alcohol like crazy, which they do sometimes because they have parents or older siblings who want to be cool parents, and not actual parents. There's also a difference between a healthy relationship and an unhealthy relationship.
