Polygamy should be legal. If three or more consenting adults want to commit to each other, who the hell cares? Same goes for relatives in sexual relationships who aren't having kids. Like why do we care who fucks who as long as everyone is capable of enthusiastic consent?
I agree with the first one. Everyone should be able to love any adult in any way shape or form they want with consent of all involved parties.
But the the relatives one runs into issues with abuse and clear voluntary consent. Grooming is an actual thing, and a much bigger potential risk if the groomer is raising you from your infancy. I would add the caveat if you really want to make it acceptable, it should only be allowed between people of the same generation, and only when they're well into adulthood.
I mean these things should be legal in a world where coercion, manipulation and abuse are still frowned upon. Why I put capable of enthusiastic consent in there.
If a 30yo and a 60yo genuinely want to bang, I got no problem with that.
