Well it seems this forum is lacking in activity as of late, so I thought that I might try and get the ball rolling again. Even though I seemingly already have the ability to post in the Debate Hall (not sure how that happened), I will post here first which is in accordance with your traditions.

I'm curious if there are any objections to incestuous relationships, or marriages for that matter, that are not based on the common cultural taboo.
Please take note that this is not about procreation, or the dangers of inbreeding, which is a different matter altogether. There are plenty of couples that choose to not have children. Rather, I want to know if there are any justifiable reasons for rejecting the love of two consenting individuals, who happen to be related, besides it brings discomfort to others?

Is there really anything wrong with this?You can't help who you fall in love with, it just happens. I fell in love with my sister and I'm not ashamed ... I only feel sorry for my mom and dad, I wish they could be happy for us. We love each other. It's nothing like some old man who tries to **** his three-year-old, that's evil and disgusting ... Of course we're consenting, that's the most important thing. We're not ****ing perverts. What we have is the most beautiful thing in the world."
