Their body, their choice, right?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-says-German-government-s-Ethics-Council.html
Council spoke of right of 'adult siblings to sexual self-determination'
Said this was more important than 'abstract idea of protection of the family'
Dismissed claim that incest causes disabilities as not having enough weight
Argued those who have genetic defects are not banned from having children
Comes after case of brother imprisoned for having four children with sister
He was adopted, and pair met for first time when he was 24 and she was 16
Two of Patrick Stuebing and Susan Karolewski's children are disabled
Stuebing failed in 2012 appeal to have his family brought back together

Next will be dads having sex with the son and daughter.

Mom having sex with her son and daughter.

So, how is that progressive ideology working out for ya? Going as planned?

I'm for same-sex marriage and equality, but these people are way over the line. They're so way over they don't even remember what it looked like when they crossed it.

If you have any libertarian tendencies at all, why are you against letting consenting adults do whatever they want?

Europeans are like that in this respect. You are right.

I sense a profit opportunity here.

I think I'll get some urls like "hot brothers and sisters", "Hot fathers and daughters" etc. Internet porn makes money.

TH, again another Troll thread. In every other thread you argue that the government has no business what happens in your bedroom and now you argue that the government should have control over this. At least stick to one argument and quit blaming liberals for your shitty life.

No troll thread.

People like to call me a bigot, when the fact is everyone is a bigot. With some people we have to dig a little deeper than others. Sooner or later certain events will touch a nerve.

Most civilized people are repulsed by the thought of brother and sister sexual acts. And there is a reason for that. We have a built in protection mechanism to prevent inbreeding. Inbreeding contributes to birth defects.

As much as you have a right to do with your body, the government has a right to protect future generations.

Incest breeds nothing but problems.

Maybe. Personally I literally could not care less if brothers and sisters are doing the nasty, but it's worth pointing out that much if not most of the opposition to incest is based on two things, coercion (power within families is inherently unevenly distributed) and the likelihood of birth defects which as productive members of society we'll be called upon to support. That isn't so much bigotry as common sense.

Not going to go look for the citations but given the nature of the internet I'm betting that you're waaaaaay behind the profit curve on that one lol.

If they are adults, I don't see how it's the state's interest to say what they can do. It's flipping disgusting, and not a trend that will ever catch on, so it's a non issue.

The only thing that would sway me for state intervention would be is if b&s incest is commonly linked to some history of sexual abuse.

As well as the concentration of fatal alleles.

I love these kind of hiker threads, where he blends issues to serve a preplanned argument and pretends he's said something pithy or damning.

TH hates American progressives so much he'll blame them for what happens in Germany. Someone get the doll. Maybe he'll open up this time and the healing can begin.
