I agree that there is a difference between rape and incest but not the one you just mentioned., Maybe coerced sex would be a better example. It is hard to try to come up with situations that are similar to this. No matter how consensual an incestuous relationship can be, it can never be as clean cut as "the tragedy of falling in love with your sibling". There is so much behind it that I can't even use the word consensual because I don't really think it exists when it comes to incest. It is 10,000 times more complicated than that.

Anyway, I don't want to argue about this. Using rape was a bad example but there isn't an example for incest so it's hard. I just wanted to show the (apparently) less popular opinion. And maybe some people will realize that incest is a really, really, really big deal and it is very real to some people. Am I happy that incest is the new slash? No. I think this is the net going way too far. But I feel like 99.9% of the general net population disagrees with me.
