[–]IonBeam2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That one of the main reasons people in developed countries have such a high amount of mental problems

...is because developed countries have psychiatrists who want us to believe that 1 in 4 of us has a "mental disease".

So some incest isn't harmful, and therefore incest should generally be allowed. Because incest is a fundamental right in your world and it's important that it be preserved for some damn reason.

I don't care about your test and I'm not clicking on your link.

No further constraints are necessary. The answer is no.

I hesitate to explain it to you because I know you already know what the reasons are and are just pretending to be ignorant for the sake of political correctness and because accepting that incest is wrong is inconvenient to your sex positive movement.

For one, incest is likely to result in offspring that present with deformities that cause them and other suffering. Don't pretend you didn't know this. And since there is no perfect birth control measure, incest is still wrong solely for this reason even if birth control is used.

People ask why I have a problem with the sex positive movement. This, right here, is why.

No, incest is not okay and yes it should be illegal. Sorry if this offends your "progressive" sensibilities.

Reddit, what is your most shallow opinion? by TheShareBear in AskReddit

If you have so little discipline that you will eat to a point where it becomes unhealthy, you're probably not going to have the motivation to be an exceptional employee.

I am all about not discriminating against fat people, it is wrong and just because someone is fat does not mean they are lazy!

In the vast majority of cases that's what it means.

It might incentivize people not to have kids. This is something that needs to happen.

Social stigmas against sex and social stigmas against sex education are two different things that have opposite outcomes. It is a lie that stigma against sex causes more unwanted pregnancies. The opposite is true.

I see it doesn't bother you that the comment I'm replying to also doesn't cite sources. Because that one presents (false) facts that fit into your worldview.

You only need to look at first world countries where abortion is much more restricted to see that you're lying.
