Incest in a lift

[SpuriusMaximus]

I know you don't mean it this way, Ryokan, but see my post above: "higher genetic risk due to incest is a myth" (which it probably is) will be the first casualty; next, tear-jerking stories of brothers and sisters who were lovers in the cruel, misunderstanding world; rants about how all hatred of incest is just due to the "ick factor" ("if you don't like it, don't do it!"); and finally -- "hey, so why is incest really wrong?! You RACIST!".

We've seen it all before, numerous times.

Dude, that SOMEONE out there will make some arguments, that's a given. I mean, someone even argued that we won't see May 22nd.

And for the above arguments, we've seen them made by some nutter or another for even worse things, yes. But that society as a whole will be ok with them if they allow prostitution, is still bogus. It didn't happen in ancient Rome or Greece, where prostitution was a normal fact of life (in Greece they even had prostitutes around for parties, and the upper class routinely had deluxe prostitutes as mistresses), it didn't happen in Europe in the last millennium, it didn't happen anywhere. AGAIN: you can't override reality by doing hand-waving.

And the argument that someone will make some argument is bunk anyway. Just because someone makes an argument, doesn't mean society accepts it. We were not ok with those arguments when done about, say, child molestation.

Neither can the animal. As well the physical differences between humans and animals, lead to horrible effects on the animal, and sometimes the person as well.

Bestiality is not the "animal love" that its practitioners would have one believe. It is putting ones own very odd desires ahead of the health of the animal.

What health problems can allowing a dog to mount one's leg cause, for the human and the animal involved?

Update, on the court case:

Sheriff Small told the pair: "I'm sure you both understand that most right-minded members of society will find the details of this case unacceptable and difficult to comprehend."

He said, however, that both defendants were "vulnerable" and had "problems which no doubt contributed to the offence".

To which I'm sure the defendants (and anyone else present) responded, "Duhhhhh!"

Handsom couple.

A fair decision. Sending them to prison would be pointless, and they've already suffered due to the publicity surrounding the case.

Maybe they'll get a book deal?

What is this strange attraction about lifts?It starts with guys asking women back to their room for coffee and ends like this. I say all lifts should have see through doors and random electric shocks administered through the floor to keep passengers' thoughts off rumpy-pumpy.

I think there's a manufacturer who can supply that. Also available, knockout gas and trapdoors. Blofeld Industries - don't have contact details for them, alas.
