Case Studies

I have interviewed many people in loving, consensual relationships who do not have the freedom to marry, or even the freedom to just be together without the threat of prosecution by their own government, and bullying and discrimination by others. Most of the interviews I have done have been with people who are or were in love, in closed relationships, and want/wanted to marry their lover(s) and are prevented by discrimination that still remains in marriage law. Some people just want to be able to have their sex lives without being prosecuted.

While many people will find the sex and love lives described in these interviews shocking or something they would find personally disgusting, the reader should realize that not everybody wants the same life, and the disgust of one person, or even many people, should not prevent consenting adults from having the sex and love lives to which they mutually agree.

The opinions expressed by the interviewee are those of the interviewee, not necessarily those of this blog.

  1. I'm 17 and my boyfriend is 27. His family(mother, father, siblings, cousins, etc.) are into incest and so am I. My family doesn't know and frankly, I'm not attracted to most of them anyway. We plan on having four children and sharing our love with them in every way possible. I don't know if I will be able to handle not being able to talk to any of my family about it or having them find out and disown me.. the only reason people think incest is wrong is because it's what society has drilled into their heads. I don't know what to do about this. I know it will hurt, having to hide something so beautiful from the people I love so much. ):

    1. Anonymous, thanks for commenting. First a couple of issues: If you're living in a jurisdiction where the age of consent is 18, your boyfriend is breaking the law if he has sex with you. If his family is in a jurisdiction where consanguinamory is illegal, they are breaking (stupid) laws if they are having sex with each other.

      That being said...

      I am not against age gaps between adults, and I am a male who was with some much older women starting when I was a teenager (legal age), so I speak from experience when I urge you not to rush into marriage or having children at your age. If your boyfriend is someone you should marry, he will still be that in five or ten years.

      Also, I am strongly against abusing children. Children should be raised to be independent adults who can leave the home and form their own homes, and start their own families (if they want that). They should NOT be groomed to be the parent's sexual partner. IF someone, as a healthy, independent adult, CHOOSES to return to their parent as a lover, then I do not think the law should prevent that. But I support laws that prevent the abuse of minor children. If your boyfriend's family is enjoying their closeness as ADULTS, then I think that is fine.

    2. Grooming is child abuse. Period. A parent's first priority should always be being the best parent possible for their child, and ensuring their child develops properly into a competent, functional, social adult. Raising one's children merely for one's own sexual/emotional gratification is selfish, and a clear violation of a parent's primary duty to their children. Some issues are complex. This one isn't.

      Delete
    3. If I wasn't clear enough: grooming should be against the law. It should be punishable by jail time. I consider it a form of emotional rape. There's nothing "loving" about it. It's manipulative and exploitative. This actually shows why our current laws are so stupid: consensual adult acts are criminalized, but grooming - when the child is not sexually "reaped" until adulthood - is not, itself, criminalized. If I had my way, I would reverse the legality of those two.

  2. How do you feel about a consanguineous couple revealing to their children about the true nature and maybe the history of their relationship? I've always wondered how couple of consanguineous nature talk to a child(of any age) about a situation such as theirs due to the danger of the law in man places.

    1. That's a good question, Anonymous. It's up to the parents to raise their children how they think best. What children care more about is having loving parents, a place to call home, and some stability. Children would only think negatively about the consanguinity of their parents if they were taught to think that way.

      To the kids, their parents are first and foremost "Mom" or "Dad."

      I see no compelling reason for the parents to tell the children while they are young about their own consanguinity, but there is an obvious potential drawback to telling them: the information falling into the wrong hands.

      Someday, it won't be an issue. The parents will freely be able to tell their children the family history and bigots, should they get the information, won't have any power to tear the family apart.

      Delete
    2. It's not all roses. The earlier they tell their kid, the more likely their kid will let it slip accidentally. The later they tell their kid, the more likely their kid is to have internalized society's stigma and reject their parents. I know that the second has definitely happened to people. Because of this, there are cases (Keith posted one about an uncle and niece) where they never tell the kids, who may or may not find out when one or both parents die. It's a really tough call.

    3. actually i know what that is like, my mother is in a cosagnuineamorous relationship with her brother. She told me about the truth of there relationship when i was in highschool. It did not change my relationship with either of them. In case it matter to people, no i am not biologically related to my dad, long story. but i think children should know about this.

  3. I´m not against consensual incest, please don´t consider this to be offending or flaming. Let´s say that for me the basic argument of: two people should be able to marry and love each other is perfectly valid to me. I agree, and I support it. I´m just... a bit concerned by the first comment on this page, and of the implications of certain statements. Psychology is an interesting thing, one that many times is completely disregarded when love is involved. I´m not sure that growing up with the idea that having sexual relationship with your siblings is entirely healthy. Teaching your kids that love is free is absolutely acceptable, but abuse, even if subtle, even if widely accepted in the community/family you come from, shapes the mind of children, shapes the way they´ll interact with the world, how they´ll think - in a way.

    Incest was widely accepted in noble families centuries ago to preserve the "blue blood". We disregarded that practice because genetic problems may happen.

    Also, I´m sorry - but no healthy parent would have sex with their own child. And no healthy child would want that from their parents. In cases where the incest happen between brothers or cousins I have less to disapprove, or in a way I find it less "weird" - for lack of a better word.

    Please, don´t take offense of what I´ve wrote. I´m expressing an opinion and a concern, after reading that comment.

    1. It is a sweeping statement to say that no healthy parent would want to have sex with their adult child, and vice-versa. Experience seems to prove otherwise.

      Delete
    2. Child abuse is always a concern with any adult/child relationship. It's an unfortunate - and horrible - fact of life. There are plenty of cases where, without grooming, a parent and adult child have entered into a sexual relationship. The trick is to openly look at the healthy relationships, compare them to the unhealthy relationships, figure out what the difference is, what was done right and wrong, and then pass laws that criminalize only the abusive relationships, and not the healthy ones. I'm not denying that it gets complicated when it comes to parents and children, but it's not opaque.

  4. Hi. This is a bit awkward for me. I happened to stumble upon this page, and I feel a lot more at ease about my issue but at the same time I'm still extremely nervous to speak about my issue.

    I'm 31, married, and have a baby on the way. My wife doesn't know about this problem.... and I'm pretty sure she would leave me if she found out.

    I'm estranged from my half sisters. One of which I've had rather close contact but only online for the past 2-3 years. The last time I saw her in person, I was 6, and she was nearing 2.

    I think I'm falling in love with her. I know I'm in deep lust with her, but if any of you saw the gene pool she got, it'd probably be understandable. lol. She's the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, and I honestly can't believe we're related. I never have had the nuts to say anything, but I feel held back.

    I don't want to cheat on my wife......... I'd rather get the thoughts out of my head, but it's bordering obsession. I think about her so often, and I don't even realize it until it's too late. The issue is, I either need to find a way to get over it and move on without breaking contact and loosing her again, or figure it out. I'm deeply in love with my wife, and we're VERY happy together. We've been married for 5 years, and this issue has only started since early last year. It really began after my grandmother passed away.

    Any advice here (I realize it's not a love column however) would be greatly appreciated. Do I explore, and risk everything (which seems like the worst possible option), do I tell my sister, and risk being the freak and being without her again, and perhaps get her help? Do I tell my wife, and risk the consequences? Or do I find another way, that involves straightening me out in a way I don't have these issues?

    I can't afford therapy, and not telling someone is hurting inside deeply. I feel like I'm lying to both my sister and my wife, and that's not a pleasant feeling. Mainly because I am so concerned with what will happen, or if either would ever understand....... I feel like there has to be something wrong with me for even wanting it....... but at the same time, I've had dreams of moving in with my sister, and having a real relationship, including having happy, healthy, wonderful children together....... and it makes it all the harder to know how to feel.

    Thanks.........

    1. The good news is that you're definitely not alone.

      The bad news is, there's going to be pain and difficulty ahead either way.

      Let's be practical. You've been building a life with your wife, and you're happy with her, correct? You're going to be a father with her, too, right?

      Cheating is not the way to go. Not only would you very likely lose your marriage, but you'd lose at least some access to your child. Also, if you live in one of the many places that still criminalizes sex between close genetic relatives, your wife could have you criminally prosecuted.

      You need to operate according to those realities. It isn't going to be easy,

  9. There is no 'natural' aversion to sex with siblings or one's adult children. Nobody has turned into a frog because of sibling sex. The taboo all societal. As for age of consent, if the children are masturbating, the sex switch has been flipped on. You can't turn it off. The real damage is society's brainwashing against it. I would have concern for whether a girl is physically developed enough, as in her ability to accommodate an adult sized penis. But if it fits without pain, and the act puts a smile on everyone's face, it's none of society's business.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Minors do not have the same rights as adults, and are still maturing emotionally and intellectually, even if they are physically able to accommodate an adult, and if you're talking about a minor who is dealing with their legal guardian, that's an added concern. The focus of this blog is consenting adults.

      And I don't know if the Westermarck Effect has a biological basis or not. I can see how there could have been development of such an effect through biological means, but I also suppose it is possible it is entirely socialized. Whichever, it is evident that not everyone raised together experiences it to the point of eliminating all attraction to close family/cohabitants.

      Delete
    2. Child sexual abuse has been known to be extremely traumatic. It often leads to permanent, life-long psychological or even physical damage. And while I understand why somebody may question whether all sexual contact between adults and prepubescents is invariably harmful, it would be deplorable to entertain the thought that a grown-up's selfish whim for sexual gratification could ever overrule a child's right to safety. As long as there's the SLIGHTEST chance that all such sexual contact is indeed harmful -- and there always IS one -- I will never support any easing of measures to prevent it.

      Delete
    3. Yeah the whole. Westermark effect is debated and it might not be real. But some research shows that it is. Personally I think it is real and some people just don't experience it.

      Delete
    4. Consent laws exist for a reason, and I doubt "ability to accommodate an adult sized penis" is the reason.... That is the stupidest argument I have ever heard in defense of child abuse. The size of an adult penis ranges from 3-4 inches to well over a foot. Surely there are adult women who can't "accommodate" penises on the lower end of a scale; and conversely, there are probably children who can "accommodate" penises on the upper end of the scale. That does NOT mean that those children are ready/ want to have sex with anyone, or that these hypothetical adult women aren’t ready for sex. Basically, your argument makes no sense for two reasons: 1, the range of penis size (and the range of depth and width of vagina too) is so large that it is pointless to talk about in this context, and 2, the size of a person's body parts or the body parts of others does not dictate their readiness for sex.


      And as far as masturbation goes, I started masturbating when I was about 5, and I know many other people who say they started earlier than that. Does that mean that a 3 or 4 or 5 year old is ready for sex? FUCKING NO! I don’t even remember it being a sexual thing, I was just exploring my equipment. And I suspect that that is the case for many children who “masturbate”, at ages even older, like 13-15 or so. Also, there are probably adults who don’t masturbate who are ready to have sex or are having sex. So, again, this is not an effective way to measure sexual readiness.


      I started having sex when I was 14 with people who were legally adults and some who were much older than me. Other than the fact that I was legally unable to consent, it was emotionally and physically healthy and pleasurable and I personally suffered no adverse effects. I don’t know if my sexual activity caused some sort of subconscious harm, but it doesn’t seem to affect me. I am happy and I have no problems with sex now. My point in saying this is that I don’t know what consent laws should be based on. It’s a confusing thing to make a law about, because the law as it stands could potentially be keeping people who want to have sex from having sex, and on the other hand it is not protecting those who are legally able to consent, but aren’t ready for sex. I don’t think that age of consent laws should be based on age alone… But right now that is the best measure we have of sexual readiness. As Mark said, as long as there is a chance that sexual contact with a minor is harmful, I will never support more lenient laws.


      Until we understand more about human sexuality and have better ways to quantify sexual readiness, the consent laws should remain as they are, or at least not make it easier for children to be abused.


      It’s hard for me to say that people who are attracted to children are messed up or otherwise defective… People say that about gay and consanguineous couples, but just because I don’t share that attraction doesn’t mean that it constitutes mental instability… But we DO know as a society that when children are coerced into sex, or when they are groomed, or when they “consent” to sex before they really realize what that means, that it has devastating effects on them for the REST OF THEIR LIVES. And for that reason, I condemn what you are saying with every cell in my body. Please do not have sex with children, there are plenty of young-looking women who won’t be irreversibly harmed by having sex with you.

      Delete
    5. i do not believe children should be groomed for sex with parents,,but i do believe they should be given as much information about sex as possible starting with puberty. talking is good, demonstrations are better, i.e. observing the parents making love IF the child is interested. doors should never be closed after this. the child should be allowed to watch as often as they wish. if the child at some point expresses an interest to participate,,then glory be to god and let them(if that is where your heart is)..of course the child needs to understand that they can never divulge the nature of the new relationship to anyone lest they all get arrested..to me, what you do in the privacy of your home is no else's business..
      in my own situation, my mother caught me masturbating when i was 15,,,i was going to hell, i was deviant, my father said i needed to find a hobby, why? this one feels just fine.
      i'm retired now but sex was always a very impoortant part of my life.

    6. Notice if behind your rationalisation, there isnt primarily some hypnotic desire overhwelming. rather than a well though out reply. often deep unconcious forces that we dont even KNOW for intimacy and shame and desire to mix exist in us which creates the CHARGE necessary to overwhelm us. this doesnt mean ultimately that it is true. something will be left out that you dont WANT to look at. a piece of you.

  11. Scientific evidence has shown that people's brains aren't fully developed until they're in their early 20s, that info should be used in determining or modifying age of consent laws.

    I've also heard of "Romoe & Juliet" laws that allow teens to have sex if there is an age difference of 2 years or less (some laws it is 3 years, although I don't approve of this b/c it would allow a 13 year olds & 16 year olds to legally have sex with each other).

    The Romeo & Juliet laws could be further modified in this way: adolescence is from 13-19 years of age, 6 years total. Have adolescences who are young teens, closest to childhood, be legally allowed to have sex only if the age difference is 1 year or 1 year & a half. The criteria for young teens could be 13-14 or 13-15 depending on what the county/state/province/region determines for themselves. For middle adolescence, teens who're ages 15-16 or 15-17 years, have the age gape widen to 2 years. For those in their late teens, closest to adulthood, 17-19, have the age gap widen to 3 years.

    I don't like young teens having sex, but I also remember my adolescence & those of my friends/classmates/peers, young teens having sex does happen regardless or mine or any one else's dislike/distaste/disgust of it.

    I've also heard of some legal punishments being doled out to teens who have sex as being listed as registered sex offenders. This is way to extreme.

  12. As for adult children & adult parents/guardians (aunts, uncles, older cousins, godparents, close/trusted friends of bio parents etc.) having a consensual sexual/romantic relationship, I think that the potential for abuse is increased b/c of their power imbalance combined with the nature of their relationship while the adult child was an actual child. Parents/guardians raise the child & so are more likely to have a strong(er) psychological hold/effect on the child even into adulthood (this psychological hold/effect can be heathy or unhealthy).

    This dynamic between adult children & adult parents/guardians isn't automatically found in other consensual sexual/romantic relationship between adults, even if they do have a power imbalance & still have a moderate or moderately high level of abuse becoming reality.

    Sexual/romantic relationships between adult siblings run the same risks as one between an adult child & adult parent/guardian. From what I've read about child sexual abuse within families, CSA is more common between siblings than between children & parents/guardians.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I don't know what can be done to eliminate this, especially since some parents/guardians & teachers can't or won't see the difference between normal sibling rivalry & abuse. Not to mention that it's only recently, & only in some places, that non sibling/non related children bullying each other in schools is beginning to be taken seriously.

  14. I am currently involved in a polyamorous relationship with two men, who are twin brothers, and I have to say I'm glad I found this. Sometimes I feel like the only one.

  17. I love my mother. She is an attractive and beautiful woman. Now she lives alone. I love the mother's bottom, chest, legs ..., I love my mother's body and now I want to have a sexual relationship with my mother. How do I approach her? These feelings have long been for me. Now my feelings are even stronger and I want to have more sex with my mother. I'm sure about that! I am 43 years old, mother 63. Thanks in advance!

  19. Hi. 2 questions: 1. Is impregnating a blood-relative good? You know, there's a high risk that the offspring of ,for example, a mother and son becomes genetically full of errors (because of 99.99% genetic likeness between blood relatives).

  20. How do you find the people interviewed and how can we be sure that you are not coming up with all of this? Please don't take it as a challenge, but rather a concern in case I want to use it as a source. Thank you for making it available

    1. Some of them I’ve known for a long time, but most have me because of my activism. I place their safety over satisfying the skeptical. You have the same assurance I’m not coming up with all of this as someone has when they read a news report in the New York Times or on CNN.

    2. That should read “most have found me because”

  21. I always wonder how common incest really is. Or Poylamorous Consanguinamory is. It’s so interesting to read those stories.

    1. I don't really know that answer, but I thought I was the only person in the world attracted to my younger sibling. I'm sure if you account for real abuse situations, it's a lot. For mutually attracted sibling incest I'd say not as much but more than you'd think

To prevent spam, comments will have to be approved, so your comment may not appear for several hours. Feedback is welcome, including disagreement. I only delete/reject/mark as spam: spam, vulgar or hateful attacks, repeated spouting of bigotry from the same person that does not add to the discussion, and the like. I will not reject comments based on disagreement, but if you don't think consenting adults should be free to love each other, then I do not consent to have you repeatedly spout hate on my blog without adding anything to the discourse.

If you want to write to me privately, then either contact me on Facebook, email me at fullmarriageequality at protonmail dot com, or tell me in your comment that you do NOT want it published. Otherwise, anything you write here is fair game to be used in a subsequent entry. If you want to be anonymous, that is fine.

IT IS OK TO TALK ABOUT SEX IN YOUR COMMENTS, BUT PLEASE CHOOSE YOUR WORDS CAREFULLY AS I WANT THIS BLOG TO BE AS "SAFE FOR WORK" AS POSSIBLE. If your comment includes graphic descriptions of activity involving minors, it's not going to get published.
