a reply to: Krazysh0tJust to clarify: you're suggesting that if parents were to object to their two sons perfoming sex acts on each other, it's because of societies fashion or conditioning?

a reply to: Krazysh0tSo your initial - and as you believe - misguided reaction to your children's incestuous activities would be the result of societies fashion / conditioning? When do you suppose this started? At the birth of civiliastion?
Is your current perspective of indifference definitely not the result of some sort of societal conditioning?

What are you getting at? Are you trying to trap me in some word trap or something? I clearly spelled out that I only disapprove of incest because of scientific and legal reasons. I don't disprove of it for moral reasons. Why is this so hard for you to understand? It isn't a fashionable perspective. It is a perspective I came to after much thought, reflection, as well as applying standards for other things to this thing.

I don't know. He brought it up and asked if I would be ok with my kids doing it. So I answered honestly. Why he won't drop the topic because he didn't get the answer he was expecting is beyond me.

a reply to: Krazysh0tIt's simply a moral line of questioning that has illustrated your perspective and values.
Just for the record: I very, very much disagree with you.
It's a social taboo created by man.

It's a social taboo created by man.
And why do you think that is? What is the 'taboo' based on? What observations of the aftermath of incest led it to become 'taboo" and illegal?
