I stated in every post that I find consensual incest creepy and/or don't advocate/condone it, just don't think it should be a legal matter. Even the research that I posted was limited to developed countries where I clearly stated that it's a societal taboo and discouraged. Hard to see how that was supposed as being defense of the behavior rather than addressing the legalities surrounding it, but people can interpret things differently, so...
My last post before I did some reading on the subject stated that I assumed my opinion and uncertainty regarding jail time being inappropriate was unique, that was based upon responses to my initial comments in this thread. When research indicated that my assumption on that count was wrong, I corrected it and shared what I'd learned. I do that whenever I learn that I've made a or a wrong assumption in a topical thread.

I haven't read a single post in this thread, even by those who agree that consensual incest should not be a legal issue, that remotely resembles condoning incest of any type.
