Ujujoan: Anyways, just to add my 2 cents before the debates starts, I think it's WRONG.
It's like saying an adoptive father can marry his adopted daughter. Ewwww!

Tgirl4real: BTW, anybody can debate, male or female...
Pls, indicate interest so that we can fix date on Val's day.

Tgirl4real: "Is it RIGHT or LEGAL for an adopted child and a child of the same parents to marry?"

Tgirl4real: A user suggested this topic : "Is it RIGHT or LEGAL for an adopted child and a child of the same parents to marry?"
for debate here. The topic was motivated by this thread : https://www.nairaland.com/1179222/whitney-houston-daughtergets-engaged-brother he came across recently.

And I think it wouldn't be a bad idea if we had a Family Section debate.

We can think up more topics as time goes on.

If you are interested or you think it's a good idea, kindly signify here.

Thanks.

Tgirl4real: I trust Efe to go the hard way.

It will be fun to see an Efe/Sisikill/Coogar Battle.

So, we have Efe n Coogar.

U guys decide when will be ok so that we can carry on with the modalities.

Tgirl4real: Babe, u can cross out legal and use right.

Copied and pasted the topic as it was sent to me.

Do u wanna debate?

Efemena_xy: ^^ Lol!

Shebi you know the ancient Egyptian Queens and Pharaohs married their siblings?

So it begs the question: Who really decides what's wrong and what's right? What's socially acceptable for one tribe may be an outright taboo for another tribe.

Lemme give you an example:

Traditional Eskimo / Innuit culture dictates that if a male visitor visits a home, the host is obliged to give the visitor a female member of his family (or sister, I think) to the visitor to sleep with...so as to keep him warm at night.

Now, you'll agree with me that this is a taboo for West African / Nigerian culture, abi?

So, this just goes to prove that our "understanding" of what's right or wrong is subjective. The only time it's definitely clear is if an act is committed against the other person (i.e abuse be it physical or emotional)
