    What’s your point?

    We’re literally saying it makws no sense that this ban would get pushback. The fact so many other states allow it just makes the point.

    Americans are weird when it comes to cousins…

      Why does it matter who’s fucking who?

      Aren’t we in the middle of a big ass motherfucking fight for people to be able to be with who they want to be with, minus adults and children?

        To prevent abuse, and to limit the chances of children being born with serious medical problems they will have to suffer with for the rest of their life.

          Risk of genetic defects from cousins is very small, on par with a woman giving birth over age 30.

          And “to prevent abuse”? We already have lots of laws to address that.

          Stop telling people who they’re allowed to sleep with.

        When the fuck did we start being pro stereotype?

        This is another big fight that I remember us being in the middle of right now.
