German brother and sister/couple want incest law removed.

Post Reply New Topic

It shouldnt be illegal but people should ridicule anyone who even conciders sex with a sibling.

Incest is normal and natural. I don't see why having sex with a sibling is any different from having sex with a non-relative.

Imbred children are usually screwed up with defects when they are born.

I see no wrong in it,although the kids will turn out to be screwed as hell.

I wouldn't marry either of my two sisters,though. That would be pedophilia,and I think that pedophilia is wrong.

Same here.

You don't have the right to unlimited reproduction - especially not when it makes the kids lives living Hell.

Eh?

For every child you have your making someone society must pay for and in this case Inbreeding - which leads to severe mental and physical defects.

They actually already have kids - four of them, to be exact. Three are in foster care.

the harm is it, is it causes birth defects. the babies are probably ret*d or disabled in some way.
sexual attraction within the immediate family is very unnatural. their claim saying the law is outdated makes no sense. now, and 100 years ago, it still causes birth defects.

My husband read an article about these people and apparently their 2 kids have some genetic problems and they are now having a third child. He also said that the government took the two kids away.

I don't think that the government should have been allowed to take away their kids. As far as I know, the kids weren't being abused or neglected.

We don't know what "delays" or "problems" their actually kids had. Until I see some kind of proof, I'm not believing it.

I have a cousin marriage in my family tree.

Just an update to the news story:

I'm having trouble understanding the logic departure in some of these replies. "It's their choice and harms no one -- except their kids." Oh, no big deal, just their kids' safety and welfare. The replies in this post fully contain all the logic needed, so there's nothing for me to add; I just wish that logic weren't departed from mid-way, indeed mid-sentence.

I don't oppose nor even disagree, if they're lovers, I don't see why not marry.
If they're really willing to have kids, unadopted, okay to me. It's not as if the chance to have disabled kids is that much bigger for them than for non-related couples.
Moreover, if you say it is bad for the kids anyway, go tell that to 40+ women willing to have a kid too. The chance they'll have a disabled kid is very big indeed.
