That's a pretty shaky assertion. I doubt there's a society in human history that didn't treat cultural traditions and taboos as law in some form.
Are you for legal incest and sibling marriage?
- ivankirigin 18y agoI'm not going to voice approval for things that are taboo. I am going to stand my ground in claims that there is little benefit in laws about such taboos. Your examples are debatably child abuse in the likely of troubled pregnancies, and so could reasonable be treated as violence. I'm all for laws against violence. One take away is that you don't need laws against taboos. They are taboo and so largely self enforcing.
