Again, this situation IS NOT INBREEDING. It is NOT INCEST.

You mean like the creepy things Trump, as a father, has said about Ivanka on tv shows/radio?

That happened to my great-grandparents back in the early 1900's. My great-grandfather passed away at a young age and his brother eventually married my great-grandmother, his former sister-in-law. I've been told that was quite common, like you mentioned, especially "back in the day", when husbands died in the war or in the coal mines or from whatever.

The poster defended fathers marrying daughters, etc. It was in response to that post not the OP, but you knew that.

Meh...that's a little too Kentuckyish for my taste.

Sorry, but although that's not technically incest...it's certainly incest-LIKE! And that's the same as incest to me.

Some things you just shouldn't do. This is one of 'em.

Hey, it's taking an otherwise non discrip story and making it political and controversial.

Nope, actually missed that. Sorry. I thought you quoted the poster talking about it not being uncommon "back in the day" to a brother marrying his widowed former sister-in-law, etc.


Fathers marrying daughters, etc, is an ENTIRELY different ballgame. Apologies - reading too fast.

I know it happens and love can be found in strange places.


Report: Former VP Joe Biden's son dating late son's widow - ABC News





The New York Post reports that Hallie Biden and Hunter Biden began dating after Hunter separated from his wife. In a statement to the Post, Hunter Biden said the pair was "incredibly lucky" to have found love and support from one another during a difficult time.

Beau Biden, the former Delaware attorney general, died from brain cancer in May 2015.


Hunter is the Biden son who got kicked out of the military for cocaine usage.


Commander: Hunter Biden knew drug test was coming
I am happy that they are happy.
