half siblings

[sirhugs]

Dad was a jerk, moving back and forth between his two families depending upon work, and which woman he wanted more at any given time. The two families are aware that the other exists, but they never meet.

Until Dad's funeral, when his son from one mother meets the daughter of the other mother...

So would that be half-incest?

What if the two mothers were different races? It would be half-incest with a side of interracial.

What if Dad didn't die, but one of the mothers did? And her three children moved in with Dad and his other wife and their three children? It would be an erotic (possibly interracial) Brady Bunch with a side of Preston Sturges.

Half-blood is ruled incest in most jurisdictions (possibly not all, but I don't know)

If the other woman was married when she cheated with Dad, it may be everyone's knowledge who the biological father is, but legally it can still be the man her mother was married to when she born.

It's a very different story though...

...When John and Marcie were good friends in middle school nobody seemed to care. When their relationship developed further in high school, their parents suddenly objected. Especially Marcie's father, but well, he's a violent idiot. John's mother Karen had objections to, not quite well defined objections at first. She's a manipulative bitch who has turned John's dad Peter into complete wimp by now. Eventually when pressured, they claim that John and Marcie are half-siblings, specifically Peter is Marcie's biological father too.

Thing is, Marcie's mother is dead and girl confess she believes her (step-?) father killed her mother specifically for her not being his daughter (of course she can't prove it). She kinda knew that long ago, but doesn't know is it true or who her father is if so.

However, Peter's life should have been interesting at some point, because John's aunt, Karen's younger sister Olivia also claims that her daughter, John's cousin Inez who's about the same age -- and with whom John discovered mutual attraction dince went to city for college (he's rooming with them, and spied on her in shower) is also Peter's daughter and John's half-sister.

There's an old Calypso folk-song about a young son who goes to his father and says he is in love with some girl from the neighborhood and wants to marry her. The father says no, you can't marry her. She's your half sister, but your mother don't know.

The son finds another young lovely, tells his father about her, only to be told again, that girl's also your sister, but your mother don't know.

This happens three or four times throughout the verses of the song. Finally, in desperation, the son goes to his mother to complain that he can't marry any of the girls he likes. The mother tells him to go ahead and marry any of them that he likes because, "Your father ain't your father, but your father don't know."

Reminds me a lot of the movie A Simple Favor. Anna Kendrick is a very conventional, by the book middle class single mother. Blake Lively is this adventurous, wealth, socialite type. Kendrick ends up confiding in her about how she met her half brother at her dad's funeral and it went something like one of the stories in the incest/taboo category. Of course, it's a mainstream movie so it cuts away right as they are starting to get down to it.
