Theres a huge difference between liking incest and thinking its okay. I don't get grossed out by incest unless it has a generation gap (parent/child, uncle/nephew). That grosses me out on so many levels. But two brothers? Cousins? sure!

I think real life straight incest is really bad unless they are related through marriage or adoption. It's just not fair to the baby.

Edit: I don't have a real problem with generation gap incest unless a deformed baby is inolved. THAT is why incest is bad. So if they don't have a baby it will still irk me, but that doesn't mean I hate you or anything. In fact, if you like it, that's great for you.

It should be noted, that unless there is a long history of incest in your family (as was the case with many royal families in Europe), then the risk of genetic deformities in offspring is only slightly increased (by about 3% max). (That's with 1st cousins. That number is slightly higher for siblings, though I forget what it is.)

Oh.

Mhm. There's nothing inherently bad about relatives procreating. Being related simply means that you have a higher percentage of genes that are the same compared to a random person on the street.

Now, genetic birth defects are very rare recessive genes. Everyone has at least one or two, but there are just so many that they chance that both YOU and your partner have the same exact faulty gene and BOTH of you pass it on (The assumption is that you're a carrier. So H is the dominant normal allele and h is the faulty recessive, and both you and your partner pass on the 'h' copy, and not the 'H') are very small.

Now with relatives because you have an increased amount of similar DNA, the chance of both of you being carriers for the SAME faulty gene are slightly increased, so the chance of you both passing on the 'h' copy of the same gene resulting in a birth direct manifesting is slightly increased.

Now, when you have a long history of very closely related incest in one family, as we saw in many royal families, those faulty gene can begin to accumulate and THAT is a very serious health risk for a child.
But if there's no history of incest it's only a very small increased risk. And most cousin-unions involve genetic counseling so that couples can find out what their risk actually is.

It's pretty basic genetics actually.

XDD Sorry. We went over genetics and inherited birth defects on my "Ecology, Evolution and Society" class last semester.

agreed!  

[Ebony_Machelle]

Its depends like ill read yaoi incest manga and fanfic if siblings are both good looking like sasuke and itachi.  

[Sgt Darkwolf]

I like incest in a yaoi or yuri.
I don't really know how to explain my input on it but I will try the best I can.
I am not a fan of incest irl. Though in fake, fictional story like in anime, manga, novels and the like it's not real so I am okay with it.
Jeez, I don't know how to explain it. Dx  

[AkitaWolvesbane]

It depends because I personally love the pairing of the twins from ouran high school host club.  

[aTTypical]

Guess it depends for me too. Real life incest, no. But fiction can be really hot depending on the characters and the way it's done. Guess I'm really just a fan of forbidden love when you get right down to it.  

[ciriu]

Well I really like incest when its in mangas/anime (aha especially the ouran twincest 3nodding ) Irl I think its ok if they both love each other and as some people state it's freaking gross when its mother/son or father/daughter with the age gap gonk . Oh yeah I do feel bad for the baby (it can be avoided though right?) since I know a couple and they're siblings and their baby has defects/abnormalities crying I mean its ok if its two brothers. Well it always depends..No one has posted for a while D:

 

[LazyButler]

I'm 50/50 with it~

I like Uchihacest and Elricest for some reason but Okumuracest is weird for me xD

Preferences preferences~~

Its animeeeeeeeeeeee anything goes heart heart  

[Kashira Ka04]

Well, I have a brother, but still find incest intriguing... I especially like twincest in the world of fiction. However, I can't handle parent-child incest, somehow it just disturbs me. But, yah, BL sibling pairings, no problem~ It's not like they can have genetically screwed up babies. Okay, so maybe they can if it's an mpreg, but most authors would probably not go the realistic route or science would be advanced enough it wouldn't be a problem anymore.
