There are 8 billion people on this planet now. Surely you can find someone other than your cousin.
It really shouldn’t need to be illegal, but I guess residents of the volunteer state require a little more incentive to find dates before the holidays, rather than during them.
The just world fallacy is about people getting what they deserve.
That doesn’t seem to really apply to the statistical argument that there are enough people out there, the chance for any given individual to not have any shot is effectively (if perhaps not precisely) zero. Small enough to not be worth considering.
Really? Then why the fuck everyone keeps saying you’ll find someone?
Fuck it. I’m not going to argue with ingenious morons anymore, who are either pretending to be dumb or are actually dumb to understand what I am saying. Bye.
Most on Lemmy and other lefty spaces are of the “two consenting adults can do what they want” mind but take an inconsistent turn on this, seemingly because it’s “icky” to them.
How is that any different than conservatives being anti-gay because it’s “icky” to them?
It’s not because it’s “icky”, it’s because if you both have the same grandma then you only have one snickerdoodle recipe for Christmas cookies, genetically speaking.
I never called for a ban. I said maybe go out and explore the forest before climbing up the family tree. And it’s my understanding that most women understand the risk of procreating after 40 and typically avoid it.
But I’m not your daddy. You don’t need my approval to fuck your uncle’s kids.

I took this to mean that those who don’t voluntarily choose to not marry/have sex with their cousins need to be forced not to by law (a ban). Did I misread that?

wasn’t talking about myself, which shouldn’t need to be pointed out, but here we are.
Not really.
Speaking from a virgin, and not a cousinfucker, perspective.
‘There’s someone for everyone’ is such a fucking bullshit platitude.

Sure buddy. Ever heard of ‘Just World Fallacy’?
The just world fallacy is about people getting what they deserve.

Relationships are subject to much more than just statistics.
Sure. But I don’t think anyone else is suggesting everyone deserves a relationship.

Yes I do. I just don’t know how to dumb it down enough for you to understand.

It’s shouldn’t be the role of government to regulate who you want to marry.
But also don’t do that

As stated several times in this thread, the risk of genetic issues is akin to that of a 40+ year old woman having kids.
It would seem consistent to also ban that if that is your actual issue, right? So, is that what you’re suggesting?
