these anti abortion clowns don't take into account not only how evil and degenerate incest is, but what effect it can have on the child.
I guess forward thinking is out of the realm of their mental processes.
Most children born out of incest develop and/or are born with a myriad of health problems.
Red states already don't want to help materially new mothers and newly born children, so what are they going to do with children born with severe health problems?
Or has anyone taken that into consideration??
Other side effects of an incestuous relationship include an increased risk of infertility, miscarriage, cleft palates, heart conditions, facial asymmetry, low birth weight, slow growth rate and neonatal mortality.
"Even if there's not always a mutation, inbreeding brings up a lot of problems involving recessive traits. Because the two of you have similar genes, any recessive abnormalities you have can be passed on more easily and expressed more visibly in your offspring. This also means that usually the parents do not show any signs of the condition because they have only one copy of the gene that doesnt work correctly," Faucett said.

(35,077 posts)"What if genetic abnormalities and problems with recessive genes were not random; but, you know, concentrated at one end of a social stratification system?"
"Which end?"
"Oh, you know which end it should be."
And then they get to turn around and reify class.
