I thought Meghan was not related to Harry which is why the tabloids have a problem.

Btw I actually said first cousin marriages not cousin marriages. For the average person as they wouldn't know if someone was their first or second cousin, they wouldn't marry any cousin. With the minority who still would, it would help disclose if the marriage was forced.

just make first cousin / niece / nephew sex count as incest - job done.

That's just weird. We have Xoggy to prove it.

It certainly causes problems in Royalty. Far better if Meghan was to have an affair with a commoner. It worked for the queen(at least for 3rd and 4th child).

Hope you're not planning any road trips through Paris any time soon....

The majority of forced and arranged marriages are within the family eg cousin marries cousin or niece marries uncle; this practice causes genetic diseases.

Well to get back on topic arranged marriages are an antiquated and coercive practice deigned to promote the happiness of the 'elders' of the family than the people being married.

As the marriage is then consummated - often infant of the elders this could be classed as rape.

Quite frankly I am sick and tired of these barbaric outdated 'rituals' and I am sick of people trying to defend them on the grounds of 'diversity' and 'inclusion'.

If people want that - then in much the same way as we tell those who want sharia law - fook off back to where this is common practice - like the mid 14th century.

Cousin sex. Brings back memories of playing "doctors and nurses" with my adopted female cousin. Neither of us ever looked at the front bits, we were both obsessed with inspecting each other's bums. If only I hadn't lost contact with her.

F**k me, a typing dog!

What happened to Zeity?

He flounced.

[LondonManc]

Indeed. And it cost us Zeity.

That would take either years of training and practice or a frontal lobotomy and self-awareness bypass.

NAT's only like this when he struggles to win an discussion.

The standpoint of a loser. Well done NAT. As usual, you've hit rock bottom and started to dig.

Ah bless. He's so cute when he tries to reason and argue like a grown-up person.
