Those are the words Academy Award winning actor Jeremy Irons said in an interview on Wednesday with the Huffington Post Live host Josh Zepps, regarding the issue of same-sex marriages. But he didnt stop there, Irons argued that if a father were to marry his son it would not be incest because according to Irons the concept of incest exists to prevent inbreeding. In the same breath Irons questioned if same-sex marriages would allow fathers to pass down their estates to their sons without being taxed. Irons asid:
It seems to me that now they’re [advocates for same-sex marriage as opposed to civil unions] fighting for the name. I worry that it means somehow we debase, or we change, what marriage is. I just worry about that.
Living with another animal, whether it be a husband or a dog, is great. It’s lovely to have someone to love. I don’t think sex matters at all. What it’s called doesn’t matter at all.
