My sister and I were raised together all of our lives. We recently found out that we have a brother from our father. He is a blood brother and looks very much like us and we have grown close to him over the years. My brother is a very famous nfl player and makes millions a year. My sister now wants to date him and eventually marry him and have lots of kids. Is this ok since we were not raised together but are still brothers and sisters?? Help please.

Yes it is fine and ask your cat that beats your son to give your siblings their own personal collection of whips and chains.
You use that line alot in your questions. Why didn't you use that for this one?

The major reason that close relatives should not marry is because of genetics. Some families carry a recessive gene that can cause disease, be it mental illness or reduced immune system or whatever. The probability of a child being born with a defect is much greater. That is why in some states, it is illegal to marry a relative that is any closer than a 2nd cousin. There is asumption that there will be no sex outside of marriage. In spite of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", Incest is not best.
Considering your brother is a famous NFL player, the chances of him being interested in his sister in that way is very remote. He has many women throwing theirselves at them as it is and probably some are famous models. If he has the choice of any woman he wants, your sister would have stiff competition, even if she wasn't his sister.

I think that it is illegal to marry a blood relation, if not it should be. There are many men out there. Why would she want to marry her own brother? You need to tell her that this is wrong. And if you dad is a famous nfl player could you imagine what this is going to do with his reputation?

Er. No, the blood line is too close to enter into marriage.
For those who say the children will have disabilities. That is not entirely true. If the inbreeding were to continue for many generations then yes the normally recessive genes will become dominant. But first generation inbreeding will not, in general, have genetic disabilities.

Wow, close one... I almost took this seriously enough to answer before I looked at your other questions and realized you just get off on posting bizarre, provocative questions.
Someone else suggested your "sister" needs to see a psychiatrist, but actually I think it might be a good idea for you to seek a little counseling.

It depends , I believe that if they don't care about social stigma then they can safely go ahead as he is only your half brother and usually the negative side-effects of such close relation marriages are seen only if they are persistently occuring in a community over several generations. In fact some people argue that incest may be good as same gene pool might eliminate some of the defects within itself and the similarity in tastes and preferences might help build a more stable marriage and family.

I would not have an issue with this if you were not blood related. Meaning, if you didnt share any parents it would be ok. But they are of the same blood, and their kis have a very high risk of developing serious genetic disorders. So HELL NO that is not ok.

If you are blood related then it would be incest and any children born could have serious problems. Your sister needs to look else where for someone to marry.

aww its lovable, yet possibly you should only bypass on what different persons have suggested to you or requested, in order that that they see what others imagine of them. they are of course not romantically in love, so in the journey that they nonetheless dont replace, only depart them. Many siblings act like this round one yet another, which isnt a foul project. it would nicely be because they havent spent a lot time at the same time that they are making up for it. reliable good fortune xxx

I think you should whip both your sister and brother with your cats' personal collection of whips and chains and call it day.
Oh...good looking out on the answer again....and yes, I too, am surprised by the amount of ppl who believe these stories.

I think you both need help (mental) and it's not legal to marry between brothers and sisters and children could have genetic problems and truthfully I think your making this up !!
