The original article was about a reunion GSA case and we covered that at the time. Of course none of these anti-equality discriminators had a good reason to deny the right of consenting adults. That's because there isn't one.

DISGUSTING: Cosmo Is Now Trying to Normalize Sibling Incest
Fake news!
In an article titled “This Is What It’s Like to Fall In Love With Your Brother,” Cosmo recounts the tale of the troubled “Melissa,” a woman who didn’t know she had a brother for 40 years, until one day she learned she did.
OK.
Cosmo doesn’t make any effort to say this practice is immoral, disgusting,Why should they? It should be legal and they should have the right to marry.
Cosmo looks at Melissa’s plight with something that goes beyond tolerance, and may even border on sympathetic.Oh no! Sympathy! For someone blindsided by an overwhelming phenomenon! How dare they!
Paul Bois then picked up the ball and fumbled again, also not bothering to check the date. He wrote at dailywire.com...
Just a little over a week after it said white girls were forbidden to wear Princess Moana costumes for Halloween, Cosmo managed to out-ridiculous itself by normalizing incest.
How embarrassing. These sheep don't bother to think or do basic observation or research.
The comments from the bigots were full of reasoned consideration. Just kidding!
eeeewwwwww!

For conversations with US conservatives, who tend to be Christian, I would like to suggest the use of the term "Abrahamic marriage", "Abrahamic love", or similar to describe sibling romances. For those who don't know, Abraham was the Hebrew patriarch who is regarded as the founder of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and who also happens to have married his half-sister, Sarah. Sarah was barren, but their God blessed the siblings' marriage so that they could conceive after all.
ReplyDeleteUseful questions might include:
"If Abraham and Sarah had lived in your state, would your religion never have been born, because the marriage of Abraham and Sarah would have been illegal?"
"God blessed the marriage of Abraham and Sarah, but you're saying that you disagree with God?
