Regarding incest stories

Why are writers so scared of of the 40-50 age range for the Mother character? More often than not it's the 18 year old son and his 36,37 or 38 year old mom, I mean, sure it's perfectly possible but feels like the 40-50 age range is much much more realistic.. yes, it's a story, one can make up any scenario one wants. I've read stories where the mom was knocked up at 15 and she's only 33 years of age when she started having sex with her 18 year old son.. It's possible this is a bias on my end, but i feel like the 40-50 range is more exciting; the taboo-ness is heightened because they are older, wiser and generally expected to be more uptight (idk if this makes sense), yet women in this age range are still perfectly beautiful and sexy.. 38 is still too young in my personal opinion... Hell, I am almost 38 but in my head I still feel like I am 25 lol
With dad or brothers it will be easier
 
It's likely the author's attempt to reconcile their desire to portray something taboo, but also not really into "Older" women. So they get creative to make both work.

I think the better option is a step mother, because it seems slightly more likely that an older father would remarry a younger woman. Plus the non-blood relation would make it also more probable.
Incest fetishists hate, hate, HATE stories with step-parents. For the incest kink to really hit home, there has to be a blood relationship.

Maybe I'm being presumptuous but it sounds like you're speaking from a place of self interest.

I can see that, but I would say incest is something I enjoy reading about, however as I laid out as a possible explanation, I would rather read a story with an 18M & 35F Stepmother, than a 18M and 50F blood Mother.

Sometimes certain kinks out weigh others. Maybe I'm a poser.
 
I think the question is one of love vs. lust. Beyond the 'sexy' years, a mother and son or father and daughter wouldn't necessarily be engaging in that behavior on pure lust. An 18 year old and a 30 year old seems, in my mind, a reasonable leap for pure sexual desire.
In American society, a 60 year old with a 20 year old on their hip is cause for gossip. Gold digger? Old person trying to feel young? Really, love seems, to me, to be the factor capable of seeing the beauty in the flaws.
None of us really age all that gracefully. Attraction is the rule when we're young, but the heart powers us as we age.
You’re actually right, lust might drive younger pairings, but love adds a deeper, more meaningful layer to relationships, especially as characters age. It’s true that societal norms often judge age gaps harshly, but love can transcend those superficial judgments. Aging might bring flaws, but it also brings wisdom, connection, and a kind of beauty that goes beyond physical attraction. Stories that explore love over lust, especially in taboo dynamics, could add so much emotional depth and complexity. Great insight!

I don't deny that this is my own preference, but I believe it is a common opinion amongst incest fetishists. I haven’t done polling on the matter, but it's a refrain I’ve heard many times; proper incest needs to be a blood relationship.
 
There's a bit of selection bias going on, though. People who don't like step-cest will be vocal about it, whereas people who don't mind it won't go around telling everyone they don't mind it.

Plus, there's probably a bit of confirmation bias as well.

I mean, step-cest is ALL OVER the internet. Can't throw a stone without hitting a pair of step-family members going at it. Yes, step-cest is mostly a thing just to keep the censors happy, but if people didn't like it they wouldn't watch/consume it, and then it would cease to be.

In the written erotica landscape, proper incest is much much more prevalent.

In the video porn landscape, step is much more prevalent.. this is largely because financial institutions linked to porn and tubesites don't want any drama or risk of legal action, so they basically force/influenced creators to label their product as Step.

In the overall, it is my opinion that that majority of family porn consumers prefer proper incest.. but this doesn't mean that everyone hates step, there are definitely people who prefer Step stuff and there are people like us who prefer proper stuff but understand the limitations and just going with the flow

I tend to have coming-of-age type stories in mind, so - late teen/early 20, which generally means the mother would be 40-50. Sure, lots of women are having kids later in life now... but I guess "my generation", mothers were more in that age range.

That's because in many countries it is illegal to write, publish or download incest, where as step-siblings are allowed

I haven't heard that, but I don't doubt that it's true. I know some countries are extremely restrictive when it comes to any kind of porn VIDEOS, but I hadn't heard about any being so militant about written erotica. Hopefully you're not in one of those countries. Or STATES now in the US. 🙄

Generally for entertainment purposes.
I suppose a reality of some of these relationships is that the parent is in their 30s and the son or daughter younger than what can be portrayed here.

My mom was in her 40s and I in my 20s when we first made love.

I see alot of conversation about mother and son. And I have often fantasized about having sex with my mother. But one thing I have done and not fantasized about was having sex with my cousin. It came very natural with us and would have sex often.

Older the mom the better. I'm 59 and it still works for me.
