32. Well,
AFAIK they'll both remain illegal.

Assuming your/her father-daughter analogy refers to an ADULT daughter, I find it hard to imagine that incest will EVER (again) be socially acceptable, for medically/scientifically obvious reasons if nothing else.

If you/she meant the frequently suggested slippery slope to normalization of pedophilia, well- minors have no legal standing in terms of entering into a legal contract (which is what marriage is), so...

Polygamy... :shrug: Seems to me that in order for something to be made illegal, there should be a demonstration of harm- not the presumption of harm- just like the WOUD, for example.
