A controversial topic to be sure, but entirely believable. Just look at the amount of women who look for a guy that is so similar to her father. In my case, I don't have any edipus complex because I don't seek out women like my mother even though I have a close bond with my mother. I would really like to hear if this is the case for other people though.

Very interesting, I never thought about things like that. I am interested to hear what others think.

She has not been doing good research on the subject of genetic disorders if she thinks the worst that can happen is that they'll all just get hypertension. Which also isn't exactly a condition that should be easily dismissed as "oh, well that's controllable" considering the amount of money people spend on medication to control high blood pressure and the fact that high blood pressure is listed as the primary cause on hundreds of thousands of death certificates in the US every year, of which I doubt the majority were children of inbreeding so think about how worse off their kids will be.

Well that was...weird. I can understand the genetic attraction, since we do tend to look for similar traits in partners, whether physical or mental, and someone with your DNA is going to have more traits. What I don't get is...the grandparents are fine with it???? Ehhhh?

I had a cousin who was in love with me when we were ~6-8 years old. We had grown up together, but she is only a second cousin to me so at my young age I never really made the connection at that age. When I changed schools, and didn't see her as often anymore, she stopped with her feelings. Of course, flash forward 15 years and she's a dirty whore who does drugs and has had a lot of promiscuous sex. So yes, GSA is something that does exist. I'm fine with cousin marriages, and to an extent siblings, but parents is kind of repulsive, but so long as both are consenting adults, I can't say much, other than I hope they don't have kids.

If I notice anything which remotely resembles my father in someone I'm dating, it's over. That's how much I used to loathe him. Now, I prefer to not be reminded of him.
