    So… the same party that wants to stop same sex couples from having sex is upset that the government is telling them whom they can’t have sex with? Golly.

      “look, all I’m saying is, two men having consensual sex is wrong. Why can’t they be normal and have sex with their 12 year old cousin, like me?”

        If you’re inferring that this was the point I was making or overlooking, I hope you did so as a joke. The government’s role, in part, is to protect people who can not protect themselves. Rape and underage sex aren’t the same thing as having sex with your consenting 35 year old cousin. Honestly, as gross as it may be, what gives the government the right to say you can’t have sex with your (consenting) middle-aged brother? These are two entirely different issues. Whether or not legislators should be spending any time on these issues is another thing.

            There’s nothing “unironic” about it. You think the government should tell consenting adults that they can’t bang each other? I don’t. Just because you or I might find it repulsive doesn’t mean the government has the right to imprison you for it. That’s how homosexuality and mixed race relationships were outlawed to begin with.

              Gay sex and interracial sex are NOT the same thing as incest sex. You do realize you’re advocating for dads to bang their own daughters? Cause that’s what incest usually results in.

                A father and daughter having consensual sex is not the same thing as a 30 year old forcing themselves on a 10 year old.
                As I said, the government’s role is to protect those who can’t protect themselves. What you’re alluding to isn’t incest but rape and/or sexual assault. These are already acts punishable by law.

                  “A father and daughter having consensual sex…”

                  It must be wild living in whatever fantasy world you live in. Ask your mom or your dad if you can bang them, jfc…

                    Dude. Is your brain broken? We’re not talking about whether something is morally cool or not. It’s the point of the government’s involvement in our personal lives.
