Should incest be normalized?

This is just the lamest suggestion ever!

Goodness me. That is quite some intense experience @BBArchangel, thank you for sharing such a traumatic string of events in your life around one situation. 😗

Is intense enough that I can’t even write about it without making confusing mistakes. Sorry for the errors.

No, it should remain [banned word]

As a fantasy it can be hot. In real life no. Not at all. I’m glad it’s not legal. 

[KindaBasic]

No

Sorry for resurrecting a dead thread but hey, I'm new here 🙂

Nothing wrong with incest between (or among) consenting adults.  Many of us have experimented with siblings/cousins when we were younger and, as long as it wasn't forced, there probably isn't much harm.

Where it becomes problematic -- and where people tend to get messed up -- is when it's forced or it's adult with child. When you're telling a kid to keep a secret, they'll assume what they're doing has to be wrong and it can be a bit of a mindf---.  This is, of course, a generalization.  I've read people's posts on here where they said they weren't messed up and that's great.  But it doesn't always work out that way.

All this being said, one of my biggest unfulfilled fantasies is to be with two biological brothers (or brother sister, maybe) or perhaps a father/legal son.

Devil is always in the details. Between siblings? Absolutely! Kids like to experiment and a sibling is only natural. In case of pregnancy, an abortion should be the option. Father and son? Depends. If the underage son takes the initiative, YES. Fathers should never ever take the initiative. If they are both adults, it’s a free for all. Father and daughter? Only as adults. Mother and son? Same rules of father/underage son, no problem. A young man in his teens needs space to experiment and most of all, a clean place to unload in. No need to stigmatize sex, and hormones can drive you crazy when you’re young. You are 16 and have a willing dad and you see him sucking off his best friend? Get your pants down and let daddy take care of your needs, 2-3 times a day! You won’t need to JO and everybody is actually happy!!! Those are my two cents.

As always, that's true.

I think the historical "[banned word]" re: incest became an institutionalized, universally accepted notion well before any scientific knowledge developed re: mixing of genes, the possibility of serious lack of development in offspring, all of the negative implications that can come along with "brother/sister" incest.  Obviously, that's not germane to same-sex incest, but the stigma carries over regardless.  If gayness is passed on, and there are two brothers who are fortunate enough to have received that particular gift, where's the harm?  But who's going to stick their nose into all this maelstrom of intensely personal issues?  The Government? Hell no.  

In today's modern world, with all our scientific knowledge, some folks understand that the old rules simply don't apply to same-sex incest.  The remaining issue though - potential emotional harm - still does remain valid.  I can't judge what others do, and I'll bet that there's plenty of "exploring" that goes on between brothers, maybe brother/sister too. 

I don't know of a way to resolve this in light of modern knowledge.

Nah. Too risky to considering it OK by default.

And people usually have the innate block which prevents them consider siblings as sexual partners. It usually triggers in other situations as well eg. you potentially having control over the other. Would never get laid by someone whom I suspect that he is doing it out of necessity (actual or perceived) .. feels just wrong.

The idea of certain fantasy scenarios can be...intense. There's a reason those themes pop up in fiction and, let's be honest, in some of our more private thoughts. But when we're talking about real life, normalizing incest just doesn't fly. The genetic risks are a serious concern; we're talking about a significant increase in the potential for birth defects and genetic disorders, which can lead to a lifetime of suffering.

Beyond the fantasy element, and the heat that some might associate with it, we have to consider the very real potential for exploitation and abuse. Power imbalances are a huge red flag, especially when minors or vulnerable individuals are involved. And even in situations where everyone is technically an adult, the social and emotional fallout can be devastating. It's one thing to explore a fantasy in a safe, consensual space; it's another to try and normalize something that has such a high potential for harm in the real world.
