A teenager has revealed in an interview that she plans to marry her father and have children after dating for two years.
The unnamed 18-year-old revealed in an interview with New York Magazine her romantic relationship of almost two years with her biological father after being estranged from him for 12 years.
In the interview, the girl also said the two also plan on having children.
The teenager said her father reached out to her on Facebook when she was in high school and soon after, she went to stay with him for a week.
After the week together, the 18-year-old said they had sex and then started dating.
“Everyone on my moms side of the family sees us as father and daughter,” she told the magazine. “Those who know that hes my dad, and that we are engaged, include my fathers parents (they can see we are happy together and they cant wait for us to have babies they treat us just like any other couple), the woman we live with, and my best friend.”
As for the wedding plans:
Youre engaged?
Im planning on a full-on wedding but it wont be legally registered. And personally, I dont believe you need a piece of paper to prove that you want to be with the person you love. When you get married, you are signing part of yourself over to somebody. Well tell everybody that we got our marriage license, but they dont have to see it. One of our friends will act as the celebrant.Will you have a wedding? Do you have it planned?
Yes. I want it to represent our uniqueness, so we arent doing a white wedding. The color scheme is black and purple, and we are both going to wear Converse tennis shoes. Hes wearing jeans and a nice dress shirt. He says hes not wearing a bow tie, but its my wedding and I am saying that he is. My best friend will be my maid of honor and shell be dressed in purple. My grandmother and grandfather my fiancés parents are going to attend and my grandpa will give me away. The tables will have bouquets of trees without leaves to represent our marriage, which will be like a growing tree. My dress will be black.
And there’s this:
How much time do you spend together?
The only thing we do independently is go to work and school. Hes a maintenance man and I am studying cosmetology, but other than that we are together 24/7.Whats your response to people who just cant get their head around your relationship?
I just dont understand why Im judged for being happy. We are two adults who brought each other out of dark places. People need to research incest and GSA because they dont get it and I dont think they understand how often it happens.
Sick.
The New York Magazine piece, by Alexa Tsoulis-Reay pretends to look at this phenomenon (GSA, or “Genetic Sexual Attraction”) from a scientific perspectiveas if holding this relationship with a pair of tweezers and sliding it under a microscopebut the overall effect is, frankly, stomach-turning. It exists in a moral vacuum. Aside from describing the attraction and resulting relationship as “taboo,” there’s no effort to examine this from a moral or religious perspective, no questions about just why this is (and has been, for centuries, “taboo”), no indication that the girl or her father have even the slightest sense that this is fundamentally wrongand if not, why not. And there are no outside voices, helping to put this in any context.
How long until these kinds of relationships seek to be accepted and gain legal recognition?
Oh wait: it’s already happening.
If in New Jersey, I would bet the house that Stag Hill is the location. For those not familiar with this NJ location, get “Into The Furnace” on Netflix.
I’m not convinced this isn’t a hoax.
Oh, I get it. I should have realized it was sarcasm. I couldn’t believe I was reading that on FR. Make sense now.
Yep. Pretty much my favorite meme ever, that one.
My 3 year old daughter loves Legos and wants to marry them. I love Legos too, so it is hard to get very upset.
