I'm not against people marrying ten others, but scientifically, incest is harmful and generally involves abuse, similarly with a 14 year old, who scientifically, is not mature enough to make life-affecting decisions, and is also prone to abusive relationships and manipulation.


If you want to play that card, gay sex is ten times more dangerous and harmful than heterosexual. They are much much more likely to get infested with AIDS (as well as other STDs) than heterosexual people

I think you make a good point, but let me show you where you're slightly off the argument.

Direct incest and marriage to early teens is very likely to be the product of abusive, or coercive relationships.

Obviously a kid can't match wits with an adult. That is the problem.

 

The issue I bring up is an issue of abuse between an abuser and a victim. You cite that gay people are more likely to get AIDs. This is not a counterargument. Gays are well aware of getting diseases and enter into relationships and sex freely. In fact, what is worse is a lot of single gay men wandering around from guy to guy, than a lot of married gay men. So I think your argument doesn't hold up.


Look my point was, heterosexual relationship between adults is the best, safest and most natural way to go. Incest and homosexual sex have more faults and concerns each. If you want to defend one, defend the other too

But I'm contesting that argument. One involves possible abuse while the other is adults making decisions. I think you were trying to point out hypocracy where none exists, at least not in my thoughts. Furthermore, many states allow first cousins to marry, and many places allow 14 year olds to marry. So one group is already protected with rights, and the other is still not.
