This kind of depends on what iptables or firewall rules you have,
but for a moment lets assume that you allow "related" connections on your input.

What this means is to allow anything you connect outbound to to be
trusted to make a reverse connection back to you.

So you are therefore trusting everything you connect to.  Doesn't
sound very "Secure" to me.
