Ancient Egyptian royalty used to regularly practice incest and

why is incest now considered a lower class thing when the rulers did it?

it was taboo for the plebs but not for the kangz because they all descend from reptilian anunaki and have to preserve the bloodline

>>2218790
Close incest was made taboo by common sense very early in human history, and the rulers often thought they were outweighing the occasional downsides by maintaining the purity of the bloodline. Incest in cousins likely saw it's downfall with the dissolution of the Nobility in europe, especially the collapse of the Habsburgs after generations of horribly damaging inbreeding. In answer to your second question, No. The risks, (Recessive traits and malformed offspring) far outweigh the benefits (None?)

>At what point in history did the practise of having sex with your sister become taboo and is it time we overcome this historical taboo?

it became taboo always for non royal people to do this as usually the idea was to preserve wealth and power among as small a group as possible so any threat to that had to be taken care of

not sure it's wise to do that unless for those reasons

Royalty are always exempted from the petty cares of the lower classes.

>wanting your kids to end up fucked up like Charles II

It was always a taboo. Royalty was different because they are literally the God's chosen bloodline (or even gods themselves) and it had to be kept pure.

Wrong
Effects of incest are rarely ever noticable as it takes several generations of inbreeding in a row to get high chances of birth defect
If you breed with your sister, the chances the offsprings will have some issue are very low unless it's been happening for generations

The real reason why incest soon became rare (and later taboo) in human civilization is that marriage (or whatever stood for it) was always a good occasion to form an alliance with another family
And I'm not talking about nobles only, even for peasants linking opther families had huge advantages
Incest was simply not efficient when it comes to increasing your social circle and thus wasn't privileged

Charles II had Klinefelter syndrom, something totally unrelated to inbreeding
Proof is that his parents (who were easily 80% as inbred as him) had no health problem

his internal organs were fucked, though.
Also being infertile
