Do you think cousin couples will ever be accepted?

[luvtolaugh1234]

Just like homosexuality and marrying outside your race has been?

Personally it doesn't matter to me what people think.  This is my life and my happiness.  And of course it's easier to hide than being a homosexual or a marrying outside your race.   I love my cousin so much that I am not ashamed of it.... I don't broadcast it, but to those I choose to tell if they don't accept it that's their problem - not mine.

"Marrying outside your race"?   Just a reminder that there is only ONE human race.  There are cultural differences and physical variations. 

Think about it - individuals who can reproduce viable offspring are the same race.

As long as our society teaches the hazards, and believe the negative stereotypes associated with cousin coupling, I don't think It will ever be fully accepted.

Too many self righteous crazies are preaching their word as if it came from a higher power. It's all too sad that a large part of society actually follows them, rather than seeing both sides of the subject and then forming an opinion.

Once I get KC into the whitehouse, oh yeah everyone will be on the I love my cousin train... 

Honestly I have to agree with FCW, live for yourself not for others... Judge not;  lest thou be judged.

marrying a cousin has been long accepted...well atleast it was way back when. But only now are people going WTF? That it is so wrong and all of that. But in all irony we all sorta originated from cousin couples...ok not all of us but it was a very common thing back in the day. So it has been accepted before maybe it will be again one day. (if you don't believe me look it up...and trends do come back)
I don't think homosexuality has completely been accepted I really don't. If it has been we would have the same rights as everyone else out there. We wouldn't be killed and imprisoned for who we are. It happens in other countries and I swear it still happens here but not to the extent of other countries.
I don't think interacial marriages have been accpeted either. I won't even try and tackle it though.
Really the only type of love that is accepted is between a man and woman of the same ethnic background that are around the same age. Whom may i add are not related.
Which in my opinion is annoying as all hell. You should legally be able to love whom ever you want black white yellow red or green male female or transgender or both. You should be allowed to marry whom ever you choose and get the same benefits as a man and a woman of the same ethnic group

Members of the same SPECIES can reproduce and create fertile offspring. Varieties, races, breeds are like subspecies.

Well it is accepted, it depends where you live on earth, and what education you have received.....and the people around you...just the same as marriage within different coulours!

[Ambra_Flows]

My answer to your question is... No.

Reasons are as already mentioned above in this thread :)

Is ANYTHING ever universally accepted?

Is ANYTHING ever universally accepted?

True!

[jessiemark]

Well, I hope so, but I have a feeling it will not be accepted til I'm dead, like maybe in 100 years or something. I am exhausted because i let my family get to me so much, I wish I could find a way to not care what people think.
