  • There? Possibly, it isn't here. FGM is normal in central Africa, not here. Circumcision is normal in the US, but not most of the world.

  • Disgusting

  • Wtf. How is this "incest". He/she is not my brother or sister. U people see this normal thing as disgusting but western people love having mutiple partners to have sex with. Also,, sugardaddies... I want to ask a question tho:-Western people see lgbt as normal but disgusts when see incest acts. But,, i think it is going to be normal in near future. Don't be offended. Im just stating facts.

  • Not really tbh

  • It is not always as popular or normalised today. But there are several places in the world where it is commonplace.

    Whether or not it is socially accepted is something else entirely.

    More often than not, with Middle Eastern marriages that touch in it, are usually a case of arranged marriages. Traditional families who put high value in standing between one another.

    Not to say that is the only form of it, I'm sure there are more than enough who simply love each other and do it.

    As for Asian cultures, I believe it is exrremely less common but still present.

    Where the likes of Pakistan have a 60% rate of incestuous marriages, Japan has a measles 3% rate.

    So long as it's between two consenting adults. Then people should be able to do what they want regardless of outside nay saying.

    • @A_Nihullist It seems like you have quite a bit of knowledge about this subject but your own opinion at the end surprised me, because you sounded as if you weren't considering birth defects. That as long as they were two consenting adults it was ok. Hummm! 🥺

    • I didn't consider birth defects, I don't want kids personally so it doesn't usually come to mind. But they aren't always guaranteed. It's certainly something to factor in though. Something that would be taken to the appropriate field of doctor to give their professional opinion on.

  • They do not look as it as incest or abnormal.

  • Maybe in the older days or rare occasions in wealthy families to keep money in the family.

  • yes it should be.

  • Nope

  • I don't find it normal definitely...

    • Really? Id like to discuss it in private

    • @GoodgirlNatalie sure

  • Yea it is

  • Muslim community allowed it
