I do not agree that is a fair point to use. A family's destruction doesn't warrant a law...I don't feel that sort of harm is relevant when deciding what should and shouldn't be legal.
that being said, I do have a lot of disgust for parent-child relationships, but I have no fair explanation for that other than My own ick factor. I also don't agree with those who engage in incestutous relationships outside of their own marriages. I am mainly talking about first cousin or sibling relationships.
I also want to reinforce that I never said homosexual relationships were more destructive or less healthy than heterosexual ones.
