Anyone want to step up and defend consensual incest being legal (but a bad idea)

[Person Man]

What's the punishment for Polygamy anyway?

I voted "No", but what are you going to do, anyway? This seems more like a social thing than a criminal thing. Perhaps convicts of this crime should be dealt with in a compassionate, medical way than a hard and fast criminal way.

I want more than just platitudes though!

Define the exact extent the law should take and why.

This is a very tough issue to look into, though. Perhaps no closer than second cousin, unless there is proof that the sexual partners are incapable of producing children. There should also be no recognition of inter-family marriage because it would complicate the legal benefits allowed between the members.
