I love Incest/Taboo

Here's guessing that most (probably almost all) incest kinks and fantasies are just that: fantasies. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

First, it's been deemed one of the most taboo taboos, and guess what? Designating any sexual act as naughty or "wrong" tends to turn some brains on.

We live in a time where the vast majority of people (even some people on Lit, which I find baffling) immediately project their own anxieties about that particular fantasy on others and make sweeping declarations that to merely have the thoughts, or enjoy the fantasies, makes one a reprehensible person who is likely to commit such acts in the real world (research demonstrates that to be almost entirely untrue).

But I take the view that almost all sexual fantasies, kinks, fetishes and so forth, can be observed and recognized as having roots in deeper psychological impulses (nobody is "sick" for having a fantasy; it's imagination; there are plenty that I don't care to hear about, but I don't judge imagination ... after all, someone could do the same to me).

In fact, pushing back on the idea that an incest fantasy is necessarily an indicator of actual, harmful impulses, I would argue that at a deep level, most incest fantasies are a reflection of powerful, non-erotic love — metaphorically the "maximum" act of love for the fantasy partner — or on the flip side, an impulse, probably sublimated, to connect with a person who wasn't able to show parental or filial love in the way the fantasizer desired.
This is a brilliant post.
 
Aunt/Nephew, and cousins are my personal favorites. I had a cousin that I fantasized about back in the day.
