Inspired by this post on !incest@burggit.moe.

What are Burggit’s thoughts on the ethics (not the legality!) of real life incest? Some common conditions for starters:

  1. Between consenting people
  2. Between consenting adults
  3. Between consenting adults of a “reasonable” age difference
  4. Between consenting adults, no parent/child relationships permitted

Personally, I am torn between 2 and 4. Can there really be a consenting relationship between adult and child (both being adults)?

    I think that as long as everyone involved is a consenting adult, people should generally be able to have whatever kind of relationship they want with whoever they want regardless of who they are, and that includes incest. The prohibition on incest that exists in most of the world today is an unjust violation of peoples’ rights to self-determination and bodily autonomy.
