The other twin is a lesbian, who usually brings whichever woman she is dating at the moment to family gatherings. So not all homosexuality is genetic or hormones in the womb or whatever.

This is very interesting, but I'm not surprised noone has responded to it.

I will admit that I don't like homosexuality or incest and marriage as such, but I believe that equal rights are a good thing, so I'm for both.

We aren't talking about whether it would be made legal, but whether it should on the ground of equal rights.

gondath seems to have the point.
The definition of marriage people were using in order to bring homosexual union within it's boundaries does not exclude incestuous couples.
Basically "loving consenting adults". If you include one and not the other it is just a judgement based on your personal tastes.

Please point out to me which of the following are exclusive to incest/polygamy (I'm including polygamy as FoolThemAll raised it again).
- Weak relationship
- Complicated custody/inheritance/divorce settlements
- Birth defects
- Abuse within a relationship
