Incest is bad, having experienced (unnecessary elaboration here) firsthand.
I just find arguments about genetics uncompelling. It’s an added risk factor, absolutely, but nowhere near what I consider the most dangerous aspect of incestuous relationships.
It is, however correct a line it may very well be, also borderlining on eugenics adjacent arguments I think. It is not necessarily a slippery slope or anything, but when discussions about who should be allowed to reproduce occur, it should be expected that people would get a little prickly I think, even if it’s a justified idea.
I did not expect incest to be such a touchy topic in this community. Huh, though again it is something that no one really thinks about every day.
