“Could a father not marry his son?” Irons asked Josh Zepps, a HuffPost Live host. He said that “it’s not incest between men” because “incest is there to protect us from inbreeding, but men don’t breed.”

He also wondered if same-sex marriage would allow fathers to pass their estates to their sons without being taxed.

“It seems to me that now they’re fighting for the name,” Irons said about people supporting same-sex marriage instead of civil unions. “I worry that it means somehow we debase, or we change, what marriage is. I just worry about that.”

Irons made it a point to say that he “[doesn’t] have a strong feeling either way” regarding same-sex marriage, and he “[wishes] everybody who’s living with one other person the best of luck in the world, because it’s fantastic.”

“Living with another animal, whether it be a husband or a dog, is great,” he said. “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.”
