Same. Like I understand the squick behind parent/child or like, aunt or uncle/child because there's that power imbalance, but as long as there's no imbalance between the siblings and it's consensual, who cares.

because some people are squicked out by incest in general?

harassing people over it is obvs over the line and what have you, but people being put off by siblings being written in romantic/sexual situations would be completely understandable and i fail to grasp how anyone could think it's weird of anyone to feel that way.

/ships incest by the way, i just get why people don't like it.

What's weird is so many people don't know -why- they are squicked by it. Rarely can anyone actually say what it is specifically about sibling incest that bothers them. It's just... 'understood' on some cosmic level or whatever. Like an unwritten rule that no one can be bothered to challenge. With related siblings, at least someone can argue that there's a genetic component to the squick factor. But what about unrelated siblings? Why is that so vulgar to so many people?

(Anonymous) 2019-03-27 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
Do you demand people justify and challenge why they're squicked by scat, or noncon/dubcon, or underage pairings? Or is it just incest?

People are squicked by the shit that squicks them. Sometimes it's because of personal experience. Sometimes it's the thought of being in that position themself. Sometimes it's the way they've adopted a common cultural taboo. Sometimes it's just something they find viscerally gross. Insisting it needs to be explained is just the other side of the asshole coin from demanding people justify their kink.

*snorts* 'Demand' and 'insist'. How dramatic.

(Anonymous) 2019-03-27 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, yes, you're so much more sophisticated and worldly than the plebs who don't like incest, we know.

(Anonymous) 2019-03-27 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, that's not the reason~

(Anonymous) 2019-03-27 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
squicks are by their nature things that bother people that they can't really explain, it's how that idea works.

though incest is a genuine social taboo because of how damaging it is to the victim, or victims, involved.

like i'm not gonna wonder why people don't like scat or watersports either, to people not into it it's just kinda icky and gross.

(Anonymous) 2019-03-27 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe I should have clarified that I can see why people don't ship it, but not why it bothers them that other people ship it.

(Anonymous) 2019-03-27 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
probably because it's a pretty big social taboo, just like how people get super bothered by people that ship shota and loli, it's not just shipping something more risqué those are things that are literally illegal irl.

i think people just have a harder time reconciling that if they're not into it, which i think is fair tbh. so long as they're not harassing anyone over it they can carry on not liking it and even judging those that do in their own heads for all i care.
