City Laws in West Virginia
Alderson- One may not walk a lion, tiger or leopard, even on a leash.
Huntington-
Firemen may not whistle or flirt at any woman passing a firehouse.
It is legal to beat your wife so long as it is done in public on Sunday, on the courthouse steps.
Nicholas County- No member of the clergy is allowed to tell jokes or humorous stories from the pulpit during a church service.
I don't understand the point you're trying to make here. Homosexual shouldn't be "victims of their own nature", or shouldn't be themselves, because their harmless actions are looked down on by many societies?

That's actually unfounded. There is a popular belief that incest results in physically or mentally deformed children, although this is a vast oversimplification. Inbreeding (which may occur through incestuous or non-incestuous relations) results in an increase in homozygosity, i.e. the same allele at the same locus on both members of a chromosome pair. This occurs because close relatives are more likely to share more alleles than nonrelated individuals. If an individual has an allele linked to a congenital birth-defect, it is likely that close relatives also have this allele; a homozygote would express the congenital birth defect. If an individual does not have such an allele, a homozygote would be healthy. In small populations this dynamic would lead to an initial increase in birth defects. But if health care is limited, it is likely that such children would not reproduce; consequently, the frequencies for the allele in question would go down. Ultimately the result would be a population with a large number of homozygotes and a small number of congenital birth defects. In large populations with good health care, however, it is likely that there will be consistently high levels of heterozygosity despite periodic inbreeding. Consequently the alleles linked to congenital birth defects will remain in the population, with a significant chance of a homozygote with the linked allele.
Besides, what does that have to do with legal consequences? If they want to have a child that will have more of a chance to have a defect, it's still their choice to have the child. The destruction of human fetuses, who are biologically human, is also permitted. There are many stupid and unfounded laws. But that's beside the point. Incest is prohibited largely because of religious zealots, social taboos and dogmatic people, not genetic defects. At least in America. If the Bible thumpers would stop thumping and actually read the damn book, they would find that there is quite a lot of incest in it.
So is it wrong for homosexuals to act on their feelings, but okay if its heterosexual people acting on their feelings?
Also, would you like to have a relationship with another man? You could, it would be your choice like it was said in the video, but I wouldnt like it and I am sure no heterosexual man would like it either, so why should homosexuals choose to do that too? You posted this video as if it was the same for homosexual people to be with a person of the same gender or of the different gender. It is not the same.

As a fellow West Virginian, I know as to why this is illegal. Whales mistake the sound as a mating call and they begin to invade from Virginia to get to the whistler. What results breaks the "having sex with animals under 40 lbs" law. It also causes there to be hundreds of dead whales due to them forgetting how they managed to swim through our tiny creeks.

California:
1.No sticking wooden sticks up a mountain goat’s ass
2.California Law states NO Fake Orgasms
3.You can not beat your wife with a strap wider then 2 inches without consent.
This increase would be so small that it won't change much. How many people have incestual relationships? And of all of them, how many children will be deformed?
I don't know the number or people that have incestuous relations, but if it would cause an increase in these ailments (even if small) doesn't that mean it isn't unfounded and isn't only based on religious zealotry, social taboos, and dogmatic people?
This increase would be so small that it won't change much. How many people have incestual relationships? And of all of them, how many children will be deformed?
I'm pretty sure that if you ask people why it's illegal they would say something along the lines of "because that's just sick!" or "God hates it" or other similar peremptory statements, I think that the last reasoning would be that there's a chance that the offspring would have the same disease as the parents, because when people hear of incest they are just disgusted of the fact that some people fall in love with someone from their family.
It's not like incest itself leads to deformed children, it's that if the parents are deformed, the chance for the offspring to inherit the deformation is just a little higher, because it's the same blood, so it would be almost like saying that parents with deformities that will most likely pass on through genetics shouldn't have children because the risk of the child to be deformed like them is there. I don't think we should legally stop people from consummating their relationships just because of this. Besides, the bigger problem here is that any incestuous relationship is inherently wrong, even without sexual activity.
You could argue that there should be a law passed where if there is such a relationship then no offspring are allowed, but prohibiting incestuous relationships? Why?
I don't know the number or people that have incestuous relations, but if it would cause an increase in these ailments (even if small) doesn't that mean it isn't unfounded and isn't only based on religious zealotry, social taboos, and dogmatic people?
I'm all for sticking it to the religious (trust me). But even if they say something is wrong because their god says so (which is hilarious nonetheless) doesn't mean that it isn't wrong in its own rite. For instance if they say "murder is wrong because God says so," doesn't mean that it is right to murder. Same with social norms or what have you. From my limited understanding inbreeding will cause an increased likelyhood of recessive genetic deficiencies coming out in offspring, and from this I think it's fairly founded that incestual sexual relations should not be permitted (and by necessary extention, nonsexual incestuous relations). Should people know the reasons for not accepting incest? Most definitely, but I don't think knowing the correct reason for not accepting should bereason for accepting.

its illegal to be drunk in a pub..
-its illegal to smoke on Grafton street (where all the main tobacco shops are)
-if a leprechaun turns up at your door you must, by law, give him a share of your dinner.
This is my favourite
-its illegal to preform witchcraft.

Is that even possible?
In York it's legal to kill a Scotsman with a bow and arrow unless its a Sunday. I think it might have been changed recently though.
So mom and daughters all need to share one? I'd think that would be even more perverted!

Incest is prohibited because of genetic diseases. It should always be illegal.

In Colorado, it's illegal to borrow a vacuum cleaner from your neighbor. I think the stupidity of that speaks for itself.
You're telling me "incest"* porn isn't at the least a tiny bit hot?
*it's actors pretending
I don't know....remember that Spongebob episode?
What episode?
So, in a place with good health care, like America, it there would be an increase in children with these ailments? Or did I misunderstand something?
