Sorry, it was women over 34: https://medicalxpress.com/news/2013-07-cousin-marriage-older-mothers-birth.html

Facts. You just don't like it because of the ick, and the cognitive dissonance is making you angry. No one likes when it's pointed out that they're acting irrationally.

look at you moving goalposts. go back to disappointing your family.

[–] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I just misremembered. But my point still stands. You want to ban women over 34 having children?

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

no, I don't. you seem pretty intent on trying to make me tho. banning first cousin marriages doesn't lead to us banning all pregnancies began after the mother is 34. you're using a logical fallacy of the slippery slope and it doesn't apply.

[–] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It's not a slippery slope, it's the exact same thing. The same excuse you use for banning incest equally applies to women over 34 giving birth. Banning that would not be a slippery slope, it would be an equivalence.

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

no it wouldn't and that's your logical fallacy. banning consanguineous marriage does not mean banning all women over the age of 34 from giving birth. You're wrong.

[–] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Why do you want to ban consanguineous marriage?

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

wanting to ban first cousin marriages does not equate to banning pregnancies from woman aged 34 and older. How many times do you need this repeated to you?

[–] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

Answer the question.
