Funny story, I'm the cousin, 7 generation removed, from the lady my friend married 2 weeks ago. I only found out when I saw her family name in chinese (which is the same as mine, fairly rare) on the invitation card. That will bring you into conflict with another set of laws though... |

Incest sure seems to be a popular subject of discussion on this board.
Personally, it doesn't bother me one bit (although I do draw the line at parent/offspring incest) and I don't really see why everyone gets all worked up over it. Endless "Low morals" Soul

Genetic problems? I think that's the only issue. Everything else is just arbitrary social standards. At least arbitrary in NA. Some nations are plain strict on how you live your life, still following to centuries/millenia-old customs. Actually most cultural regulations for royalty has always promoted dangerously close incest as you have to marry another royalty.
And what can you expect from anime fans Incest is part of the package. |

It usually stems from fear for genetic defects. Consecutive incestuous unions happening within a bloodline does increase that risk.
I'm okay with cousin unions as long as it doesn't happen to me.

I know eh I thought of it, thought it obvious and redundant to make. It did inspire me to look up terrible jokes.
1. Police arrested two kids yesterday, one was drinking battery acid, the other was eating fireworks. They charged one and let the other one off. 2. "You know, somebody actually complimented me on my driving today. They left a little note on the windscreen. It said, 'Parking Fine.' So that was nice." I love making bad jokes in a group setting and having everyone face-palm in disappointment. |

A farmer, reminds me of the Chuck Noris joke: A cobra bit Chuck Noris, and after 5 days of agonizing pain, the cobra died. (The cobra would have died before being able to bite anyone if it was Bruce Lee though) |
