    There are 8 billion people on this planet now. Surely you can find someone other than your cousin.

    It really shouldn’t need to be illegal, but I guess residents of the volunteer state require a little more incentive to find dates before the holidays, rather than during them.

      Same line of reasoning, just 50 years ago.

      We shouldn’t ban consenting adult relationships solely because they are icky.

            No, I want you to explain your reasoning, you’re the one who made it. please explain how marrying a black person is just like marrying your first cousin.

              There’s nothing objectively wrong with either one. Both have been banned because they gross people out for purely social (bigoted) reasons.

                Incorrect. One results in higher than normal birth defects that exacerbate over time, and one is perfectly healthy. We, as a society, should try to limit birth defects, no? Are you also in favor of bringing back thalidomide?

                    that’s not true, and false equivalencies only serve to make you seem more ridiculous. You’re gross, and your kink is historically shamed because it destroys us a viable species. I feel sorry for the people in your life.
