So I'm already bracing myself for this thread to get moved to the Member boards but mehhh, figured I'd see how it goes. If you feel strongly about any of these topics, by all means share your opinion but if we can do that without potty language, that'd be super.
I want to talk taboos! Beegs just posted this about the Jerry Springer show that's on right now:
Which brings me to the first taboo. Is adult incest bad? If I didn't grow up with my brother, "met" him, was attracted to him (after all, he shares my genes so he's gotta be pretty cute, right?) and sleep with him--safe, protected sex so we aren't worrying about combining our similar genetic material--is that bad? Why?
I kind of think it's a societal thing based on establishing a bigger security system for your offspring. It's not to your genetic advantage to mate with a family member, even barring the inbreeding effect of your DNA, because you already have your family in your support system. You're supposed to branch out and bring another family in to protect your offspring. All of which is largely irrelevant if you aren't looking to breed. Is there another element of it that has to be considered? Or is it just "oogy"?
I'm'a back away slowly now and see what happens....

But that has to be the rare exception.
But that doesn't mean I want to make it worse. And sleeping with someone I'd have to see at family do's for the next 40 years would make it worse. I'm just a huge fan of boundaries. No one has to sleep with some one, hormones or not. I think people NEED more consideration if their choices are going to cross other's boundaries. Maybe it's because I'm all aged and stuff, but that's just me. Sex is fleeting, relationships you may care about last longer.
