nayrt but sure, biological incest. But to me, and I should think most people, it's not really the blood relation that's icky, it's the fact that you had a familial relationship and grew up together, and then made it sexual. That's what is squicky.

I really could not care less if two cousins who did not grow up together or even know each other previously fucked, especially if they aren't having any kids together (as a same-sex couple wouldn't).

Proof of most people?

Because "blech" and I've asked a few others and got the same reaction

When people talk about why incest is wrong, they usually bring up two points: one, you grew up together and that's gross, because the relationship you have with your siblings should not be a sexual one. Two, you're going to have jacked-up babies.

The second point is always brought up. With a same-sex couple, this would be a complete non-issue.

I think they're both icky, for different reasons.

Okay, I honestly have to ask. What is gross about two adult men who have never previously met having sex? Even if they are cousins, what does that effectively mean? They have no prior familial relationship. The blood thing doesn't matter as they aren't having kids. Considering the fact that their dads are both dead, it's not like they would even have an awkward family reunion.

While there are plenty of reasons to be against incest, what actually applies in this scenario?

The reason the relationship in this case is wrong is because one guy is a sociopathic asshole. They share a bit of DNA, oh well?

You could say the same about two people of the opposite sex who are related and having sex, but using protection. Some things are still icky to people on a genetic incest level, even if it's only the potential.

YOU don't have to find it icky. But trying to argue other people out of finding incest icky is a losing battle that I'm honestly not even sure why you're invested in winning.
