If OTHER people engage in things that are NONE of my business,
whatsoever, then I have NO problem with it. I make that my basic
rule of thumb about EVERYTHING and I mean EVERYTHING.
However, I think that any time there is a likelihood of minors
being victimized in any way, it is society's duty to PREVENT that.
Thus, if the incest wasn't being explored ONLY under the supervision
of an adult, I would object. A participating adult can add stability
and guidance to the experience. Cruise ships are a great place to
prectice incest because your lose the petty laws and antiquated
restrictions after you are 12 miles out of US waters.

That would be NONE of my business. I am NOT a busybody.
And it's totally HARMLESS.

And you're right. I **should** have clarified that as I just
did above: Involvement with KIDS when it comes to incest, HARMLESS.
Incest can be fulfilling and enjoyable when practiced under the direct
supervision of a participating ADULT. The . taboos are among the
last of the antiquated taboos left on the books.

THAT can incite riots or do psychological damage. Or encourage
other people to be bigots. NONE of which should be acceptable to
any society. And that should include the same sort of verbiage
directed toward gays. Incest and necrophilia are TOTALLY harmless.
Only the unenlightened will meddle in something that isn't their
business in the first place and say expressing your love with a non
human
entity is unacceptable. WAKE UP! Most people don't care what the
person with
condescending opinions believes in the first place.
Necrophilia, incest and . are victimless *crimes* and should
be decriminalized immediately.
