If gay marriage is legal...

[notyoueither]

n.y.e.

In small communities transmission of unwanted traits across several generations- although the Habsburgs also demonstrated what could go wrong when overly close attachments were formed for political purposes:

Yes, it can have very negative effects for children. That is a good reason to legally ban it. I'm playing devil's advocate, maybe, and questioning why it should be illegal when children can not possibly be conceived.

But seriously. Since some Russians are retarded, does this mean that all Russians are retarded?

Dog humping is a dominance thing. Rarely, females will do it too. I had a friend's puppy (lab GSD mix) try to hump my leg a couple of weeks ago, because his little brain thinks he wants to be alpha dawggie. He learned different.

Maybe, maybe not, but if you put United Russia's platform up against the Tea Party's platform, how similar would they be?

Of course not, how did you get your degree if you can't answer that question?

So Russian men are children who need the government to babysit them or they'll drink themselves to death? Makes sense.

The government is there to help them drink themselves to death.

I suspect in the original small communities of humankind an incest taboo also had to do with sharing out the available wealth of families- dowries, bride prices, et cetera- expensive if you have a lot of daughters, hence female infanticide, but if you have a lot of sons, well....

Was there an incest taboo?

I can think of prominent historical examples that suggest otherwise.

[Lorizael]

Parents and children definitely not - mostly because of very easy ability to abuse the power inherent in such a relationship to begin with.

The other question is interesting, but I think bans on incest are only partially about the offspring.

Given how rampant domestic abuse is in perfectly unincestuous relationships, I'm not sure there is a good argument for banning the incestous ones.

Love this spoof.

I really don't care. Let people marry whom they wish especially since the usual reasons against incest (genetic problems for children) don't exist for gay couples since they're not having children, duh. I think it is incest is creepy but really don't care enough to do anything about it, especially with gay couples who will never have children. ****, let me know when those inbred ****ers in the deep south stop marrying their first cousins.

[Dinner]

Love this spoof.

I've decided I want to bang the wife in that video. No, she isn't the hottest but I sure do want to nail that ****.

[MrFun]

Uh, okay, cool.

[Alexander's Horse]

I watched that clip just to see if I wanted to nail her too
