A new study contradicts the notion that people who are sexually attracted to children and are willing to act on it are social outcasts and statistical outliers. The study, which was conducted in response to an interview with a woman who was engaged in a sexual relationship with her father, found that people were actually attracted to mates who resembled their parents. Covert incest is not easily perceived and is often subtle, such as a parent denying privacy by entering the bathroom while their teenage child is showering.
The term “sexual interest in children” is abbreviated by “SIC” and includes pedophilic (regarding prepubescent children aged 10/11 years or younger). Incestuous relationships in the USA are prevalent but do not involve coercion. The two worst sins for the!Kung are cannibalism and incest, while among the Comanche, incest and morris dancing are considered unthinkable.
A middle way between these two extremes seems the most sensible, as any exploration of the unknown carries risks. An incest taboo is any cultural rule or norm that prohibits sexual relations between certain members of the same family, mainly between individuals related to the child. Church propaganda has further claimed that these groups often engaged in secret rituals involving nudity, incest, and cannibalism.
Sex magic is using sexual energy (usually orgasms) to cast a spell and get what you want. Nine crucial pieces of information about sex magic include the importance of understanding the concept of incest, the dangers of exploring the unknown, and the importance of maintaining a healthy relationship with others.

Is there a way to tell if people have tendencies towards incest? Watch more at …
I am Majoring in psychology and this is called “genetic sexuality attraction “. It happens between parents, sons, daughters, cousins, when they first meet as adults. When I was first learning about it I was disgusted. However, it is a fact that feelings like this can happen more often than we think. I personally feel the psychologist was being too judgmental especially because psychologist and doctors should not be judgmental, but instead more understanding and help the patient.
This has happened in more than just this case, and for a long time, the royal families only married within their genetic families. So yes, humans have done it in the past a lot, especially if you came from a lot of money and political power. I find it too harsh to judge them over this, it’s not something that should be encouraged, however, the woman isn’t his mother. As someone who’s adopted I find people who don’t look like me at all, as most attractive, just to be safe. XD lol However, if I met the woman who had me or the guy who donated, they aren’t my parents. They didn’t raise me, I don’t care if they had me, I’m not theirs. I know some people might think differently, but unless you’ve been adopted yourself, you just don’t understand. The person who’s your mom is the one who took care of you when you were sick, hugged you when you were in pain, who you go to when you have a problem. Someone just showing up and being all “I’m you’re parent” when they aren’t, doesn’t work. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t be hostile to them, but they are strangers to me. If they want to be my friend and develop a relationship that way, I’d feel ok, however, if they want to “be my parent” that’s a hard no. I think people feel like there’s this “magical crap” to what a parent is, when that’s not what they are. Being a parent is work and time, if you don’t have that with someone from a very early age, you can’t feel that type of love for them as a grown adult. So that’s why their relationship crossed the line into something unfortunate.
The problem is that for those that have not had the feeling just don’t know. I’ve been trying to define an unusual experience I’ve had quite a while ago. My family took a trip back to our hometown and I met my cousin for the first time there. Not having met before or even having exchanged a word, we were about to sit down at a table for lunch with our families, when I brushed up past her. I turned around to apologize when this excruciating feeling of desire came over me. It felt electric. She looked at me the same way and grabbed my hand pulling me into a back room. We sat next to each other not knowing what to say and it was all I could do to restrain myself. It took all my will power to get up and return to my family. Nothing happened but that was the first time in my life I had an emotional impulse that strong. It was an insane level of desire and I could tell both of us were fixated on each other. Because we both had separate lives and responsibilities we decided to not see each other again but the feelings havn’t subsided. After some research I’ve found out that it was GSA and these doctors really don’t know what they’re talking about. It hasn’t been studied properly unfortunately and I wonder how many others have ever felt this way. Not many, by the sounds of it.
All of my great grandparents descend from James the IV of Scotland. Both sides of my family tree include monarchs up into the 1700s. Every woman I have met whom I was instantainily burning with sexual desire for and who felt the same way about me was somehow cousin to me from the 1600s or closer. In every case this desire was so intense it was almost uncontrollable from the very instant our eyes first met. This attraction is absolutely real. Now I realize that there are thousands of years of incest leading up to now. But, don’t scoff, it’s real!
I’m not trying to condone or say it’s the right thing to do but more than have the people in this world are here because of a incestuous relationship a past relative had? As if EVERYONE grand parents aren’t related 🤷♂️ I say long as they are consenting adults who know the consequences of having a family and can handle attitudes of friends and family then what’s the problem? People back in ancient times did it, it says so in the Bible! 🤷♂️😂😂
i will say quickly something i was told in school as a kid: you can’t talk reason to a crazy person ; you can’t talk philosophy to a starving-man. The idea of incest is repulsive, its factual existence is a blight on society and its practice are gross. But arguing to an incest-supporter that incest is untenable, because there are other normal people you can be attracted to, doesn’t get at the heart of the problem. It’s like telling a problem-drunk and coke-fiend that there are other forms of powder and liquid to drink and ingest. Then you hand them a glass of milk and some crushed up cookie-crumbs and act surprised when their addictive mindset leads them to rob you and go seek their actual fix. Like no….people who have a damaged state of mind, you can’t just fix with a statement. You can’t just say “c’mon maaan, this ain’t normal!” and expect those words to stop a guy who thinks he’s spiderman from jumping off of a rooftop. The dude is crazy, just like anyone with an altered psyche or taboo thoughts that they haven’t addressed (such as those attracted to their own family-members). That psychological issue needs to be fixed, first.
I think that you can’t help who you fall in love with so I’d say change the law but if they’re one male and one female then they get steriled because the child is more likely to have problems her the child might not have problems ideally I’d say that genetic testing is a good option but that would cost more
WOW There is some really bad information here. I pray for you and your patience. All of these people can receive permanent help! No more evil lives. Being in God’s care. Receiving God’s will and purpose and living right. And forgiven permanently. No longer needing man’s therapy. Ask HIM for proof! He holds you responsible for everyone who is not really helping. Every lost soul as the result of your influence on them. Your going to have to answer to God for!
i have the theory that family will feel a sort of attraction for each other “family bond” but if they dont know each other dont know there family maybe that family bond will turn into love they’ll think that they feel attracted to each other is because there each others soul mate but its because there family in my opinion the only incest that i find ok is that of a brother and sister if there almost the same age i dont see what the big deal is who will love you more then your bro/sis
I still believe that, under the condition that both individuals are willing, incest occurs from the bond that was formed through experimentation, starting off with holding hands, progressing to hugging, kissing, then fondling, constant skin to skin contact will cause the two to resemble an intimate relationship. Such intimacy removes the ability to think clearly and objectively, one of the main reasons why I avoid sex until any relationship has lasted several years.
I think it’s only wrong because we see it as wrong, having a child as a result of incest, on the other hand, is completely wrong. The common deformities and other major problems makes it a horrible thing to do. And incest without pregnancy between two consenting people is like masturbating basically. I’m not saying I have incest sex at all. It’s just my open minded view on the matter.
You know, I’m not really one for incest, especially considering I have no sisters, but keep in mind that mutations and incest are not related. In fact, it would take anywhere from two to three generations of incest to see the negative side effects, which, the most common is a poor immune system. Going down more generations, you may start to see certain traits (good or bad) appear more frequently (this is not mutation). Then, eventually, you reach infertility.
@viera1963 so you’re saying gay marriage is bizzare and you’re against that too? It’s the same thing, but one has more reproductive purpose than the other, as I say, as long there is love in involved and if both parties (male and female) are okay with it then go for it, thats also depends on thier age tho 😛
ok, incest is not something i would do, but still i also disagree with those people who say that incest should be a crime and penalized…i mean what the fuck? two consenting adults can do whatever they want as long as they don’t hurt anybody or have babies with birth deffects. i have a friend who is married to his first cousin and they’re great people! they have NORMAL BIOLOGICAL kids who go to school and everything, please people stop judging.
I wouldn’t have a kid with a relative. It’s not fare for the kid. We all want to produce the healthiest child out there. I would also not a have a child in the case of many hereditary diseases. Why reproduce the disease? Adopt a kid if you have to have that sort of a person as a mate. A few thousand years ago we all thought like this and deep down we still do. Sometimes we think too much and that overcomes our common sense.
Fail on comparison. Try taking a psychedelic drug and looking in the mirror. Your distorted face will most definately scare you if you aren’t used to this. As humans, we make comparisons based on our own looks as to what is ‘good’ or ‘bad’ looking. We feel comfortable when seeing our own faces. Similarities are much the same. Incest is an entire different realm. Sex with a family member you’ve known for years doesn’t compare to a digitally enhanced photo of ones self in the opposite gender.
@comanchio1976 sir i salute your passion for science, i value lab nerds, but you are trying to equate science of matter with science of practical application. Researching dead matter and atoms is one sided, researching live reaction of people confronted with their siblings requires direct stimulation, how can you as a man of thought not give in to it? I love quantum physics,progressive thought in modern science, but i would not research relationships in a lab,it is counter intuitive.
@celpabedn I probably didnt explain myself properly. All the above experiment demonstrated was an aversion to similar characteristics to our own, and the obvious reasons for it. Obviously it isnt 100% successful, maybe if 100% of close relation incest births resulted in death..the success of the urge would be more complete. All this does is demonstrate a correlation between physical similarity and non-sexual attraction, along with the obvious reasons for..which it does.
@CavalynSmiles I can understand where you are coming from and what you mean but without our moral rules we’d be little more then animals. Of course we can’t help who we love and sometimes that’s just not fair to anyone. I’m sorry to hear that your parents don’t talk to you anymore but these things come with a huge price and sometimes love just isn’t enough. I’m sure your parents still love the both of you but it’s really hard on them too.
@CavalynSmiles narrow minded? I’m more open minded then you can imagine but even I have my limits and my principle. If you love your brother then good for you but to have sex with him is beyond wrong and some part of you must know this. I wonder how your parents raised you or how they feel about this. At what point does it become wrong for you? Will you allow your kids to do the same? I wonder what kind of birth defects will they have and how they will feel about your actions.
@MasterOfFlash92 actualy my rule # 1 is every rule has an exception and that is A FACT and yes could you imagine living 1 million years youd go insane and probly go on killing sprees and about aborting the child its beter not gittn pregnant but if it happens you dont want that child living a miserable life in such a miserable world would you? about the parent thing your parent already belongs with some1 and thats there spouse if i lost a wife 1 i can promise you this i would never remarry.
What about the very first humans, Adam and Eve (Now I don’t believe in this bible story, but anyways) they have children, do the children sleep with each other or does Adam sleep with a Daughter or the like, because I don’t remember them have neighbors. Oh and then Noah’s arc, two of each kind of animal this implies the same thing incest must have taken place..
@elatus yeah i agree, inbreeding between two close relatives (specially between brother & sister) should be indeed a crime, but not between 2 first cousins, i mean a non relative couple has like 3 or 4% of change of concieving a baby with birth deffects and first cousins like 5 or 6%…that’s nothing really.
@davlor86 The birth defects only generally show themselves in the second-third or more generations. Not the first. Look at the royal families of Europe, for example. There was a whole generation that had blood problems and the rest became carriers or the trait. That being said, they intermarried with cousins then intermarried again. Most people wouldn’t do that. A single generation due to incest is not a terrible thing. But it can still lead to painful defects.
From a scientific and a Darwinism approach of natural selection (the strongest and smartest survive). Race mixing makes sense because it provides the offspring to have a better; immune system, and gene pool. The child’s immune system takes on from the parents, meaning whatever disease the father was immune to and whatever the disease the mother was immune to, there’s a good chance the child will be immune to both of the diseases. Also it provides a healthier gene pool from genetic defects.
@waldoman7 I living in freaking Tennessee friend so although I may have made a few assumptions I’m somewhat right about the incest thing except that not all southerners do it. It’s just a stupid stereotype. I said it to be kinda funny cause it is somewhat true but not true of the whole South. whether it be your aunt, uncle, cousin or mother it’s still wrong. animals don’t even do this type of stuff.Some might go gay by mistake but I’ve never hear of anything about incest in the animal kingdom.
@celpabedn Why would that be the only ‘valid’ experiment? This one would clearly demonstrate a natural disposition to unconsciously rejecting similar physical traits to our own. Meeting in person may bring other factors into play. A huge part of incest-avoidance is not being attracted to other children you’ve grown up with/lived with. This is just demonstrating a different natural mechanism/trait in a perfectly scientific way.
@majeenah Or maybe it’s more likely they’ll be attracted to someone who looks kinda like their opposite-gender parent? Which in some way would reflect at least some of their own facial characteristics etc. Or, they might be attracted to someone who likes their best friend, like George Costanza and the “female version” of Jerry 😉
@comanchio1976 your theory stands on shaken ground since there are couples who look like one another, and couples who are genetically in relation and are all attracted to each other!Laws of attraction are not just physical, they are mental and energy like related, you surely have seen people who are not attractive on first glance yet to discover, whey you met them they have a pleasant vibe to them.This is a totally nerd like approach to science since it computes only material input, not energy!
@kimchichick if you spend allot of time with someone unrelated whom is younger than three years or if you are younger than three, scent will inhibit sexual attraction. it’s cause at this age you have your individual scent plus a special baby scent. so complex i’m not really doing it justice but it’s a fascinating area of new studies to read.
@celpabedn I’m obviously not getting my point across. This isnt trying to encompass ALL aspects of attraction, just this 1 particular aspect..and why it is. I honestly dont know how else to explain it. This isnt guesswork, or ‘shakey’..it’s sound science and I am qualified. I just think there’s something getting lost in translation.
@mrhenryleopard – “I agree. Me and my Grandmother are considering getting married some day. She’s been waiting 103 years for this. I’m 19.” Good for you. The age gap would get in the way for many but if you’re both consenting adults, which you are, I wish you the very best. I can only assume you’re grandmother is attractive for her age. Mine however is not and incest does not intreast me.
@comanchio1976 I think you are partially right, because in order to have sex, you do not need to be attracted to face alone, people look at physical traits more than facial in order to be sexually aroused! Love on the other hand is another matter since it always implies the use of eye contact and facial recognition! In my estimation this is a failed experiment due to so many relatives who have been attracted to each other knowingly aware of their genetic heritage or not.
@Bobzeaux no there are many reasons why you might not be attractted to similar faces. I do think they’ve jumped to conlcusions far too quickly though. clearly it’s a complicated subject with a lot of factors. but I actually think i’d find both of my sisters very attractive if i didn’t know they were my sisters. Somehow that has produced a revulsion in me, but on rare occasions somehow that revulsion gets bypassed and I notice.
@davlor86 Over a few generations it will be significant. One generation of cousin’s bearing children might not do much harm, but if the family continues this practice defects will start showing in the family line. The risk only increases with each generation. Individual freedom is important, so I think the best way to go about it is to only legislate against conception in these circumstances. Marriage, surrogates/insemination, and adoption should all be legal.
@celpabedn My point may be heard but almost certainly not understood. It doesnt presuppose that at all. It only attempts to explain 1 tiny aspect of the whole, and the reasons for it. Many scientific experiments are conducted in this matter, to limit the amount of variables and to localise the specifics of something. Maybe if you researched more into scientific method instead of blanketly refuting it without understanding it. Obviously science works or we wouldnt be communicating in this way.
@CoonEyed “what if the condom broke or if birth control failed…you know?” well in that case i think abortion should be the last resource choice…yeah i know it’s not the nicest thing to do, but believe me it’s better that than making the life of a poor innocent baby terrible But still condoms are safe 99% of the times so if you use them correctly, you don’t have really to worry about this, in very rare cases a condom breaks or fails.
@nosajj12345 wow, that’s incorrect. I’m an atheist for your information. I simply have my own opinion about this subject. I expected that some people would get offendedby it eventually. Also, how can I be more perverted? I didn’t imply any personal sexual thoughts in my comment, I simply stated that I don’t think they should live (even though when I think about it, it is a bit extreme). In the end I’m entitled to my own opinion about it. It dusgusts me entierly.
@viera1963 what it’s disgusting to you, it may be not disgusting to other people, But yeah i do agree that a natural baby born from two siblings is absolutely wrong and should be illegal. But criminalizing incest is ridiculous, it’s like criminalizing gay sex to me. So yeah Inbreeding (specially between two siblings) should be illegal but not incest. (they are both different things)
umm.. the Bible doesn’t really say anything about incest be wrong does it? I mean, how can it? Adam and Eve had children and then who did the children mate with? Each other! There is no other option because nobody else is supposed to exist.. Its funny how preachers just overlook the parts of the Bible that are contradictions or don’t make sense. 🙂
Even under a twins situation of the opposing sex, rarely does facial incongruities appear exactly alike, unless the subject has exceptionally high self confidence and can’t wait to see himself in the mirror every morning I’m not sure what solid evidence would suggest there is value presented in this survey. Even then incestuous subjects may not have a self-satisfaction rating that out-rivals normal subjects.
