Myth: GSA Causes Birth Defects or the Children Will Be Deformed
Reality: If sex between people brought together through Genetic Sexual Attraction results in a birth, GSA does not cause birth defects in and of itself.
Most children born to close relatives are healthy. You know some, whether you know it or not and whether they know their own true parentage or not.
Birth defects can be the result of injury during pregnancy, substances ingested during pregnancy, environmental factors, or genetic problems. It is the last one that people tend to be thinking of, usually, when they repeat this myth. That’s because when both genetic parents carry the same genetic problem, it may be demonstrated in the children. However, this can happen with parents who aren’t closely related, too. A genetic problem may also result in a child if only one parent carries the genetic problem.
Many people who are brought together through GSA don't have children together, due to personal choices, or age, or surgery, or their genders, or some other condition, or even fear of the children being used as evidence in prosecution. See here for more extensive information about this topic.

To prevent spam, comments will have to be approved, so your comment may not appear for several hours. Feedback is welcome, including disagreement. I only delete/reject/mark as spam: spam, vulgar or hateful attacks, repeated spouting of bigotry from the same person that does not add to the discussion, and the like. I will not reject comments based on disagreement, but if you don't think consenting adults should be free to love each other, then I do not consent to have you repeatedly spout hate on my blog without adding anything to the discourse.
If you want to write to me privately, then either contact me on Facebook, email me at fullmarriageequality at protonmail dot com, or tell me in your comment that you do NOT want it published. Otherwise, anything you write here is fair game to be used in a subsequent entry. If you want to be anonymous, that is fine.
IT IS OK TO TALK ABOUT SEX IN YOUR COMMENTS, BUT PLEASE CHOOSE YOUR WORDS CAREFULLY AS I WANT THIS BLOG TO BE AS "SAFE FOR WORK" AS POSSIBLE. If your comment includes graphic descriptions of activity involving minors, it's not going to get published.
we the people need to stop repetitive myths about gsa. gsa is for adults and thats final.
ReplyDeleteConsanguineous couples are just couples, stop criminalizing them! They don't do any harm to anybody, they just love each other.
ReplyDeleteHm, but the probability is higher isn't it? Not against cousin-cousin or aunt-nephew (if they have a similar age) but (half-)sibling-sibling or twins still seems to dangerous to me.
ReplyDeleteUnless the family has serious genetic problems, the odds are very high that a child will be fine. https://marriage-equality.blogspot.com/2011/06/consanguinamory-and-reproduction.html
