Do you find incest wrong?

[Dreaming Dan]

Nope, I'm about as easy going as the come but this is one of those things that just isn't right.. what's next bestiality is OK as long as they are both consenting after all its just a social taboo right and its not like there will be any kids...

(shudder)

 

[Mutie]

I dunno, never tried.

A related question, though, do you find the idea of sisters (preferably twins) having sex to be less wrong than other forms of incest? Alot of people seem to for some reason.

This does actually creep me out a bit... My libido driven friend couldn't understand why I was mildly horrified when he was telling me about some "awesome" twin porn he'd been watching. I think most people are disturbed by the idea of incest due to a genetic desire to maintain strong blood... That's my theory anyway. Either way, I think it's just wrong, man... I know love knows no bounds, but dude!

It's pretty wrong yeah but I'm not gonna start policing it. Once someone gets pregnant though it's a crime against nature, inbreeding does not lead anywhere good for a child.

 

[CrimsonBlaze]

I don't think its appropriate. Sure, siblings can develop a special bond between them, but it does not mean that this merits a romantic/intimate relationship. Many people tend to confuse sibling love with romantic love and many are prone to becoming a couple.

On the matter of breeding, I'm sure that there are many couples outside of family ties that didn't plan on children when they were physical. The risk is always there, and if siblings engage in intercourse, there's always a possibility that they will conceive a child. If siblings are having procreation sex, then it's definitely an issue.

As far as what "society" says, society doesn't need to dictate what is right or wrong for us. People kill, lie, cheat, and steal on a nearly daily basis, and we are fully aware that's not right. Yet people continue to do it. People who engage in incest are (I believe) aware of what they are getting into, and that it is wrong on many levels.

Bottom line, people will do what they do and find some way to justify it. We are all guilty of our own actions and will keep our beliefs dear to ourselves.

The human species is already inbred enough without the risk of making it worse.

 

[SuccessAndBiscuts]

I guess it is a bit of an odd one, generally speaking I'm against the idea but there are two distinct examples from my own life that make me query it.

Firstly I have a cousin who I have always gotten on with and who is more or less my ideal partner, smart, pretty and with just the right amount of crazy and secondly a friend who describes me as being "like her big brother" who was one of the first people I properly felt something for growing up.

So one is actual incest (although I think it's legal in this country) and the other is a sort of freind-zone-but-close-enough-to-be-family-anyway.

Honestly if either of those girls approached me for anything I would be really hard pressed to say no. So I guess I'm undecided, if confused by the topic.

 

[Mudze]

No problem with it, unless they learn how to form babby. Even then, terminate the pregnancy. Adopt. Whatever. So long as the genetically moral thing is done.

 

[Trivun]

Just to put this out there, there are actually some societies in the world, both in the past and in the present day, who practise incest as a matter of course, and who see it as perfectly normal. For the record, unless there are kids being produced, I see no problem with it. Hell, one of my fictional universes, which I'm trying to write as a series of screenplays, has two main characters who are sisters who are in a relationship together. At least, until one of them is killed, and the main group try to find out who the killer is. I'm writing it as a full, acceptable, loving relationship, and trying to show that it's perfectly normal to be in love with a relative. If that makes me a sick fuck then so be it, but I don't see any problem with it, nor a problem with the fact that it's much more than just sex...

 

[Hagi]

I honestly don't see why this topic keeping being brought up.

Besides the whole genetic diversity thing there's some additional reasons to prevent Incest, mainly due to the fact that in most actual real life situations, not imagined romantic ones, those involved aren't really lovers. They have family relations that don't translate to romantic ones and often lead to abusive and unhealthy affairs.

I mean with millions of men and women out there, likely thousands of potential partners in your area, do you really need to screw your family members? Really?

What's the benefit of adding your sister, uncle and cousin to that already huge list of potential partners where in most situations that actually occur this leads to serious abuse and harm?

You see. that's always bugged me.

It's like some common male fantasy to have a threesome with twins.... why?

 

[Zeitgeist1983]

As long as "incest" isn´t a nicer word for domestic rape, it´s okay for me. The chances of creating a deformed child are bigger when the female part is above 40 as though the couple are brother and sister.

I don´t think other peoples private life concerns anybody, except the people in the relationship. The same is true for sexual orientation or sexual practices.

 

[Vangaurd227]

Uuum im not sure...yes! oh wait..uum no..uuh maybe? I'm bad at making decisions!..but I think it would be fine as long as nobody gets pregnant

 

[BlueMage]

There's a reason that (mentally healthy) children of the opposite gender raised in the same family unit won't find each other sexually attractive - it does not produce strong offspring. That's a good enough reason for something that technically harms no-one to be considered wrong - your own biology gets queasy at the idea of it.

 

[rokkolpo]

Yes, it is wrong.

Ever so wrong.

And why do these incest threads keep coming back?
Is this the new ''in'' thing?

Can we go back to zombie situations please.

 

[Zeitgeist1983]

So long as it does not create a child (gotta keep up that genetic diversity after all) i don't particularly mind.

And what about astigmatism? If you say that relatives making a child are destroying the genetic diversity, you could also say that people wearing glasses shouldn´t procreate either. Because this reinforces astigmatism in the gene pool.
Both statements are true, but going in this direction is not desirable, since this is a big step in the direction of how the nazis used to argue.

 

[iLeikHip]

From my fast knowledge of Hentai, Japan really does love it.

I disagree with it, so let's compare it to the Nazis!

Are you freaking serious? Forbidding incest is a big step towards this:
