    If you can't keep it in your pants, keep it in the family

    A brother & sister are having sex
    "Jesus you're even better than Dad!," she says.
    "I know" he replies, "Mam told me that as well."

    You're about a millennium too late for that.

    Case in point: Dublin.

    When it comes to first-cousin relationships: Should we also view people having kids past 40, as repulsive?
    In April 2002, the Journal of Genetic Counseling released a report which estimated the average risk of birth defects in a child born of first cousins at 1.1–2.0% over an average base risk for non-cousin couples of 3%, or about the same as that of any woman over age 40.

    It seems to be a societal taboo, that - while it makes sense for siblings - should probably be downplayed by quite a large margin.

    Incest is considered as being between siblings; parent/child; aunt/nephew; uncle/niece.

    Cousins is not incest.

    Generation upon generation of cousins breeding can cause damage, but the odd cousin match doesn't do any long term damage to a gene pool. Go for it if you want, I say.

    I dunno what's up with the rise of the theme in porn. Seems you can't move for incest related stuff clogging up the 'Most popular' categories of all the big porn sites.... *cough* Or so my sister tells me. Wait, no...

    Ah no :D Wicklow is mostly amazing! It's just that place - well it's a long time since I was there (the 90s) but it really was Deliverance-esque. It's in the mountains isn't it?

    Plenty of such places in the county I'm from too!

    Seriously though, it's not really something I ever think about and not sure why anyone would? I do know a lady in her 60's who's parents were cousins. I assume marrying cousins and second cousins would have been common-ish back in the day in rural areas.


    It was good enough for Adam and Eve's kids sure...

    Do ye think the suicide bomber in Paris and the ringleader of the attacks were involved in incest?

    The female suicide bomber was the cousin of the ringleader. Footage was released of the altercation between police and her. They asked her where was her boyfriend? She answered he isn't my boyfriend and then the explosion took place.

    Could that question have been strategical by the police? She was a model at the end of the day...and it could be a method of undermining her as a proper muslim.

    What's that old saying; "the family that plays together, stays together", or something?

    Was thinking that was weird - it's so close to Dublin. But then again, Rathdrum... :eek:


    Wicklow generally.

    I'm not declaring a view - just putting the idea out there. :eek:

    Who needs cousins when you can nip across the county line and get it on with some South Leitrim sheep?

    Don't forget your wellingtons.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,736 ✭✭✭✭blueser

    You won't need them. Most of the sheep over here are fairly quiet.



    Er, so I'm told.

    I had an aquaintence who was riding her first cousin for about two years. I'd meet her out and she'd be asking me did I think it was strange. Of course I told her no not at all, but deep down I was thinking of all the people you could be meeting you had to pick your own cousin ya big weirdo.

    Wife's cousin married her first cousin about 35 years ago. Caused family rift - now thankfully forgotten. Two sons and two grandkids. All perfectly normal.

    My dad liked it.... Ehh..

    Did the two sons keep it in the family?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,837 ✭✭✭TheLastMohican

    No, but I'm worried about your twisted interest ;)

    One married a girl from Maine and the other across the country in Wyoming.

    Have you seen them barefoot?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,837 ✭✭✭TheLastMohican

    Just one of them. No webbed toes. No cloven hoofs. Nothing. So I guess the other is likewise.

    Incest themed porn has always been huge.

    The Taboo movies with Kay Parker from the 70's was one of the most rented adult videos from the video shop where I lived. Even more so than Deep Throat and Debies Does Dolphins Barn Dallas.

    You can marry your cousin in ireland but not your mother in law. They need to be updating them rules.
