How to become a secret admirer?

hello Kikoro

I will let you in on a little secret - sometimes I look back on the past postings of someone who raises one of my eyebrows...

If you are concerned about my position on this thread - perhaps all may be enlightened with a little research.

Now back to analysing the footage from those security cameras :)
 
I looked through his posts on the "Incest is best" thread, and I could really go either way...maybe he really did send her an e-mail, or maybe he is stringing along a fictional tale so he can enjoy observing the reactions of others.

There is something about incest that makes it a very intriguing taboo, and gauging people's reactions to such a taboo requires creating suspension of disbelief. If he posted an incest story for publication on lit, then that already invalidates the premise of the study. By slowly leading people through the "story" one action at a time, he can manufacture a situation in which reactions would be more genuine. There is no ethical way to study a taboo unless you have access to a culture in which is is NOT taboo, so people who cannot satisfy their curiosity sometimes use tactics like this.

Statistics seem to predict that an actual sexual attraction to his mother in which he believes she is unlikely to reciprocate is extremely rare, but statistics on taboo, by their very nature, tend to be unreliable. I'm just taking the stand of the rat in the maze that is aware that the scientists will feed him whether he completes the maze or not.
 
OK I admit - you have just caught me out - this is one poster who I thought was so silly that I did not follow through with my own advice - I just responded on glib face failure - and if I had - well back to the evaluation of the security cameras
