:::::It's still a slippery slope fallacy, Markman. If your example is inherently ''logical'', then the next statement is just as logical: "If we adopt the logic that it's OK for a man and a woman to have sex with each other so long as it's consensual, why not say that it's OK for a brother and a sister or mother and her son to have sex so long as it's consensual?"

Or: "If we adopt the logic that is okay to criminalize homosexuality, why not say that it's okay to punish homosexual acts with the death penalty?" Using that kind of logic everything can be "proven".
