I’m not sure I completely understand a milk kinship, but in western countries, incest refers to a blood kinship, and not a relationship, or kinship based on breast feeding, and being so, is not considered incest. And as far as I know, not illegal in western countries.

That's a new one on me.

The thing to realize is that 'incest' is open to definition and every jurisdiction has its own. Even the various states in the USA all have different rules. For example:

- Connecticut considers incest to include relationships between stepchildren and stepparents. A number of states include those acting in loco parentis, which might to my layperson's eyes include a camp counselor. Those are clearly aimed at power imbalances.

- the District of Columbia criminalizes relations with one's spouse's grandchildren (even from a first marriage, it would seem - hard to see either a genetic or power issue there)

- Adoptive status doesn't seem to matter in Kentucky, ditto Montana

- in Arizona, quite bizarrely, marriage between first cousins is consider incest unless both are over 65 years old and one of the couple can prove to a judge one of them cannot have children.

Internationally:

- the Czech Republic considers sex between adoptive siblings to be incest.

- Tunisia considers incest to include relations with brothers or sisters-in-law..

- incest is lawful in Germany for same-sex couples, but not for heterosexual ones! In a lot of countries, it's the exact opposite.

- there are dozens of nations which have absolutely no bar to incest, period, full stop.

Enough. My point is that the legal definition depends on where you are and the civil authorities' rules are complicated in many places by strong religious rules, some of which have great power.
