And the numbers are irrelevant. Unless it's only a violation of rights if theres a bunch of em.
If tomorrow it were legal everywhere those numbers would skyrocket.
And again, I'm not arguing incestuous marriage should be illegal.

No, they wouldn't. There were a lot of couples who traveled early to states surrounding them to get married. When Iowa made it legal, hundreds of Missouri gay couples went north to get married. When St. Louis county made gay marriage legal, it didn't even really register on the needle. The big article proclaiming the change included the tidbit that four whole couples in St. Louis had gotten married in the first weekend.
I think gay people like the idea of getting married more than they like getting married. They like the conference of legitimacy of society upon their relationships. They're not as crazy about the "confines" of the structure.
