What leads you to that conclusion? Usually, incest is not consentual, and even if it is, the people are related and therefore given family rights in the eyes of the law (i.e., they can make decisions concerning medical issues, they can inherit property, etc). Therefore, they would have no need for a civil union or marriage.


By the way, I think that this "homosexuals marrying could lead to the legalization of incest" argument is a bunch of nonsense. A line can still be drawn not allowing incest but allowing homosexuals to have the same rights as heterosexuals, i.e. getting married.
