My theory on incest stories

[duckee]

All the incest stories here makes me think of why so many people get turned on by reading about a girl giving her father a blow job. Or a brother getting hard watching his sister undress through the bedroom window...when i read these stories, part of me is incredibly turned on while another part of me feels sick and just uncomfortable...

but i was thinking, and i wonder what other people think about it.

Do u realize that most rape cases and sexual harassments are commited by someone the victim KNOWS..which means that person is either related to them or that person knows their family...not to mention alot of these victims are just KIDS...i couldnt tell u of all the cases ive heard where grandfathers molested their grandchildren...well i should know..it happened to me...

but one particular story comes to mind where a friend of my aunt's had an 8 yr old boy who was molested by his grandfather...hes about 13 now and the truth came out on accident when his mom found stories and info of incest and gay men on his computer history..she confronted him and the truth came out...

i could be getting to much into this but my point is that i think a lot of these stories are written by people who may have been molested by family members...i mean, i think about it while im reading one of them and it makes me think that thats the case ...that i get turned on by it because it happened to me...even though when i was actually abused the situation was the most unforgettable uncomfortable confused situation i have ever been a part of...an i hate that it even happened...i would kill him if he was alive today...somtimes i wish he was alive for the fact that I could kill him...
although up untill a year ago i was fine with it...content about it ..like i had totally blocked those memories out...untill i found out that he did it to my sister too.

then i wanted blood..i wanted him to get back all that he deserved. but i realized lately that he is getting it back...if there is a hell he is the reason for it.

i dont know...maybe i kind of went overboard here...i guess letting out unvented anger and frustration can get to you...

if anyone reads this..let me know how u feel about it and i wonder if the majority of the people that will read this have had bad situations such as that before.

I was molested as a child by a much older brother.
Don't like incest stories, at all. Rarely read them, can never invisage writing one. And I seriously don't understand what the "turn on" value is in them.

 

[Mesachie]

As a reader, I like incest stories. But I don't particularly want to have sex with a sibling. Nor did I ever have or want to have it with a parent. For myself, it is simply because it is so forbidden that the fantasy has allure. I suspect many others read on similar terms.

Incest survivors likely won't enjoy incest stories. Rape victims generally don't enjoy rape/non-consensual stories. In this same vain, many real war veterans, the one that spent much time in combant zones, don't much care for war stories and movies. A guy that survived Guadalcanal in WWII or hiked between the rice of Vietnam isn't much interested in revisiting the memories via some writer or directors vision of combat. Those guys have all the searingly real memories they need.

So I expect that there will be a few people that think incest is okay while many more don't think it is okay but still find it quite stimulating in fiction/fantasy.

I seriously do not get it, either. That stuff doesn't turn me on at all.

I'm tempted to believe it gets more prevalent during decidedly Republican years.

 

[scarlett_wolf_del]

Like anything else it's just a matter of taste. Personally I'm not into BDSM stories, but it seems several are. It's the fantasy of it all.

Typically the stories come about by the authors wanting a sense of security or protection that one finds within their family unit. Or what they're told they should have within their family unit. A certain closeness, a certain intimacy, an unspoken and unbreakable bond, etc.

Despite having been molested by a teacher, I can still find myself enjoying teacher/student stories (provided everyone's of age and it's consensual), but that's just me. I can't speak for others and don't intend to. Maybe that's just how I've been able to cope with what happened.

Hope that helps give you part of your answer.

Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar . . .

And a story is just a story.

I have never been physically abused by a family member, but I have known many people who have been. I never really lusted after my own sister, although I do recall an incident, when we were both young, in which she showed me what lay beneath her nightgown.

Maybe it's had an impact. Maybe it's something many young boys go through.

I have written a few incest stories, and find many of them arousing and provocative. Why? Couldn't tell you. I suppose it's the taboo aspect, akin to lusting after Catholic school girls and pretty young nuns. It's something you simply should not do . . . which makes many people want to do it.

Or, at least, fantasize about it.

I have sympathy and empathy for those in the world -- and I agree, there are many -- who have been molested by family members. But I also know of a couple of young women -- and one man -- who willingly entered into an incestuos relationship with a family member, and enjoyed it thoroughly. Such instances are far below the norm, obviously.

The lure of incest, I think, lays within the natural bond between family members, if the story is told in a loving way, with no elements of coercion or rape. In the other case -- brother raping sister, father raping daughter -- I wonder, as do you.

Still, when it comes down to it, a story is just a story. You cannot know exactly what was going through a writer's mind when a tale of incest was being crafted. You may get hints and impressions, but those are vague at best.

Read incest stories if you wish, and take them at face value. That's my only advice.

 

[AuntLuvr]

Well I for one have never contemplated having an incest relationship. However, since reading these incest stories,I have come to find my Aunt extremely attractive. Now I know I will never pursue anything like that...but it seems to me that I have become desensitized to the to the worngness of having sexual feelings for a family member

I could never EVER think about my siblings in such a way either...thats why i get confused as to why i actually like incest stories..i agree with your thoughts as i think about it..thanks for your input

i definatly agree with you...if its not allowed it becomes all the more interesting

 

[tonethebone]

I go through phases in the type of stories I read here on Lit. Sometimes about incest, then to loving wives, maybe a few gay or bisexual stories. But I always go back to the incest ones.

To me it's the taboo thing that gets me excited. I never had those thoughts for my own immediate family. But I married a gal with an infant daughter. It wasn't until she was in her teens that I started having thoughts of her that way. Although she isn't blood, she's still my adopted daughter.

Now that she's in her 20's, I still think about what it would be like to have her do to me what I read about here. I seriously don't think it would ever happen, but it's fun to think about sometimes.

 

[Boxlicker101]

I believe incest and some other kinds of stories are popular because of their forbidden nature. The stories here are fairly harmless because all the characters are adults, and most of them are consenting adults.

I think I have written eight incest stories. In one of them, the 18 year old girl was pressured into sex by her widowed stepfather. She was reluctant but liked it so much, they ended up sleeping together permanantly. In most of them, the younger female was the instigator of the sex, but the man was glad to go along. All of them are EC stories involving relatives.

You'll never read about a father crawling into his eight year old daughter's bed or a fifteen year old raping his ten year old sister. Such stories are not allowed here, and I have no complaint about that.

 

[whereisit]

hmmm...

i like some of the incest stories. i was never molested or raped, but i think what does it for me is being reminded of that mtv show, undressed, when these step-siblings were attracted to each other and did it. i was way too young to masterbate or even know what it was then, but it turns me on now. i don't know. i agree, it's just the forbidden thing.

Truth or dare

Fantasy isn't reality until you actually make your mind up to do it and comit yourself to the consequences. Sex with a sibling or parent can and does happen. Lets keep it on track here. Want honesty? I have had sex with a family member. Would I participate again? Yes without a second thought. We are both adults, and no form or rape or force was needed. An adult rapes any child that he or she has sex with,this is the law, whether the child consents, or initiates the encounter, that is the law in most countries, as far as I am aware. We, authors (I use the term with respect) use adults in the scenes we portray here,[NOT CHILDREN] for pleasure not to inflict pain on readers, so in my humble opinion, if you have a thing about incest, get your thrills from any of the other subcultures vividly depicted here

*Applauds*

Just like anything else, if you don't like it, don't read it. And let those who do enjoy it continue to. Like Happyday said, we write these stories with adults in the roles and nothing is forced. Since what we write is regarded as fiction whether it came from it or not, technically there's nothing wrong with it. Only personal perception and varied tastes.

Thank you.

My fantasy life, and writing, is considerably more extreme than the reality. There are sections of Lit I read often, and sections I have yet to explore. I plan to explore them all, and I'm sure I'll find some are not for me. As long as fantasty is fantasy, I'm not really concerned with judging others' tastes.

I do feel bad for people who have had negative/dangerous personal experiences where sexuality is involved. I have had a variety, good and bad, of experience. Some makes it into print; some things I enjoy reading about; some I don't. Sometimes, like in BDSM I want to learn more.

It's stories. Choose to read them, or not. Judge not...well, whatever.

 

[Villainous]

I'm an only child, and have never been molested or anything in my life. I love to read stories about brother/sister consensual sex, but not so much the father/daughter mother/son incest. I think maybe it's because I never had any brothers or sisters, and my friends always had (and still have) really hot sisters. I guess another part of it would be the fact that I love having sex in places where there is a higher chance of getting caught. For example: I used to have sex with an ex-girlfriend all over her parents house in the middle of the night when they were sleeping upstairs. Couch, bed, floor, stairs...you name it, we did it. But as someone else said...to each his own. If you don't like it, just don't read it. That saying goes with anything in life.

 

[Hotcappucino]

What an interesting thread...

I enjoy many of the incest stories (and I have never been sexually abused by a member of my family). I even enjoy the mother/son stories even though my own mother is someone whom I could never imagine nor fantasize having sex with (ugh!). I sometimes wonder if I enjoy those stories because I subconsciously feel something missing in my relationship with my mother, and those stories somehow fill an emotional need to be closer to her. Freud could probably help with this one...

 

[stormyknight]

I enjoy reading tasteful incest stories of varying scenarios (mother/son, siblings, and an occassional father/daughter). Writing has also been a recent activity. I have never been involved in an incestuous relationship. Stay with me because that being said : My two daughters were sexually abused as young children by their grandfather. That is so bad and beyond sick. There is indeed a special place in Hell for anyone who abuses another, whether it be sexually, physically or emotionally. I too was abused throughout my childhood, although not sexually.

Given my history, and that of my children, it has shaped my personality and sexuality. And yes, I have been to counseling (lots). And it did help. I enjoy sex and sexual expression, and incest has never been a part of my reality. But the fantasy of incest, and other sexual expressions, is a source of arousal.

Fortunately my daughters scars have healed, and they have moved on with life, but they do carry the awful memory of betrayal.
Force and deceit are not part of any relationship, sexual or otherwise.

I suppose my attraction to stories involving involving incest stems from an attraction and acceptance,and crossing the sometimes obscure line of physical/sexual energy that exists between healthy happy people who happen to be related. For me , I believe it's not the taboo, as much as the security and commonness that draws people together into incestuous relationships. But to each their own.
Be safe and be nice

 

[azrael13]

I like to read some of the incest stories, but it really has very little to do with the fact that they are related. What I like about a lot of them is just how things come about. A lot of times one of them is tricked, black mailed, or loses a bet. That is what I like about those stories. There seems to be a bit of tension in the situation, but deep down they both want it. If I found more lost wager or black mail stories in the other areas of literotica, I would probably read those instead.

You can find some of the same kind of stories in the Non-consent/Reluctance category, especially blackmail. N=C doesn't necessarily have to mean rape.

 

[not_with_my_wife]

Real world?

I not only never lusted after my sister, or mother, I avoided seeing them unless they were fully clothed. I did however lust after several female cousins, and made out with a second cousin when I was about 16 years old. That was as far as it went.
I have nieces that love to dress in ways that are just not fair to old farts like me. I truly try to ignore them, and I can't imagine ever touching any of them. It would just seem like a betrayal.
I do read incest stories, and I truly love some of them. Generally mother and son. I find myself thinking about Hollywood actors when I read the stories, and think about how the mother has been in movies naked. How is a son brought up in a normal environment when he sees shots of her in public wearing clothing that in some cases actually displays mom's breasts or ass?
I know this dates me, but I use Stella Stevens and her son Andrew on occassion. They've both done soft R rated movies, and love scenes.
Who can forget Andrew's sterling performance in "Seduction" with Morgan Fairchild?
Isn't it tough to view your mother as all your buddies view their own when you can flip open a magazine or go online, and look at pictures of her in all her glory?
Maybe mom's been married 2,3,4 times or more, and your real father is someone you see every other weekend and holidays?
We often see the phrase "trophy wife." I get the feeling that some of these kids are "trophy children."
They are stories. 95% or more are just fantasies aren't they? For me it's no different they any other catagory on site. If it trips your trigger fine, if not then you change channels.
God, what if your mom was at one time a porn star?
Not my problem.
Time to check the new stories and see if there are any good ones that are incest related.

 

[Darla_Darling]

I have never been sexually abused, and the idea of having sexual relations with an actual family member is completely unappealing to me. (The idea of sexual relations with my actual brother or father is really repugnant.) However, some incest stories appeal to me. The fact that one or both of the characters are unsuccessfully fighting to overcome their unsavoury lustful urges can be a big turn-on.

When I was just a young teenager, I once read a novel in which a teenage brother and sister became lovers, only to be discovered by their parents, who subsequently drove them apart. Many years later, the two of them were reincarnated and they found each other again to live happily ever after. It was a pretty stupid story overall, but at that impressionable age it really turned me on, and I've been fascinated by stories of incestuous siblings ever since. The Bernardo Bertolucci film The Dreamers is another example of this theme, and perhaps the sexiest film I've ever seen.

 

[not_with_my_wife]

Darla_Darling

Darla Darling is right. I forgot that. One of two, and in my case the mother has to be reluctant. That and the circumstance is where the author either makes or breaks the story. The two of them just jumping into the sack won't get me through the story. Mom getting turned on, but fighting it because it's so wrong, and evil turns the trick. No pun intended.

 

[stormyknight]

I too find the dance between personal urges/reluctance facinating.
But, I see two very different scenarios for an incestous relationship. One involves a simmering dark obsession that becomes bigger that the instigator can handle. Not to pick on guys (I am one) but, a common example is the infamous step-father/step-daughter where the guy "grooms his intended" over a period of time toward a pre-disposed outcome. It's "his fantasy" . Unfortunately this scenario involves deceiving children (and mates) in the planning stage, counting down the clock until they are legal. Not a good thing. Too much like predator and prey.
The other involves family members in a wholesome, healthy relationship, with a random event as the catylist, setting off a chain reaction of sponaneous desire. This is when the actions and desires are personal and internal. Each adult has the ability to make their own logical decision to go ahead or not and concluding with a mutual and consensual agreement.
Reading and writing about it can be a safe and very exiting expression.

 

[Wyldfire]

Incest= Shock value.
Shock value=attention.

Incest=Marilyn Manson.
Marilyn Manson=Freak.

It's trendy and edgey to be into or turned on by taboo. I'm not trendy or edgey in this way. I find it funny how many people "admit" to being turned on by a Taboo that they "would never do for real".

Yeah you won't do it for real until it's trendy and edgey to do it for real. That or as I read in this thread, once you become too desensitized by it you'll take the next step.

I'm not saying this is true for everyone, just most.
