A consenting adult is 16. My daughter is 17. Can I have sex with her ?
No, but for reasons totally unrelated to those espoused by the moralists in their crusade against gay people.
The main reason incest is criminalized is because children from incestuous unions are more likely to be deformed, mentally retarded, and generally undesirable.
There is no such risk with consensual gay sex.
I concede that there were undoubtedly religious and moral beliefs that motivated the anti-incest laws when they were first passed.
Even though these reasons are inappropriate grounds for passing laws limiting personal behavior, there are other legitimate bases for outlawing incest, noted above.
I'm just wondering when the simpletons here will realize that consensual gay sex is not incest. Nor is it pedophilia, nor is it bestiality. The concept is not a difficult one to grasp.
