Thread title says it all. If you support redefining marriage, do you support a mother marrying her daughter, if they both are consenting adults? Or a father and son? Why or why not? Thanks
What two consenting adults do with each other is none of my business.
No, I am talking about two grown ADULTS who are consenting. Who are you to force your views on two people who want to marry one another?
You were talking about mother/daughter and son/son.
Generally, those two people had a minor/guardian relationship BEFORE one of them became an adult, which negates the idea that the child, REGARDLESS OF THEIR AGE, is truly consenting, given that they would have at some point had a relationship with the parent as an AUTHORITY figure.
Same between prison guards and prisoners, hostages and kidnappers, prisoners and captors. When someone is or has been in a position of authority against someone who was helpless against their power at one point, it makes the whole concept of consent VERY MURKY INDEED.
If you support to redefinition of marriage, to 1 man and 1 woman, do you also support consensual incest?
I don't agree with you, that's why I can't answer it. One man/one woman has been the historical definition of marriage more than any other definition. If gay marriage has always been the norm, as it appears that you're trying to imply, than why hasn't it always been accepted? And again, if you support same sex marriage, do you support consensual incest marriage?
