I don't really care about polygamy either.

Well, I don't care about polygamy if it's like, the Sister Wives type of polygamy. Those people seem pretty normal and loving. I am not really cool with Warren Jeffs polygamy.

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: AYG : A reg on E, Nickivegan, some months will forego using pads or tampons during her period. That's pretty much it. Mara, out of curiousity, how would you feel if instead of siblings, it was father/daughter? Or mother/son? <strong>And number, I think how they're raised makes it harder to accept than biology. Like in the case you mentioned, they weren't raised as "family" if that makes sense. So it doesn't seem weird. But had they been raised together from even like 10 years old, it would feel strange to me.</strong>

<div>Yes, this is actually why it bothers me more when it involves a parent-child role, regardless of biological relationship. For me it seems odd to want to be involved with someone with whom you had a parent/child relationship previously, it seems unhealthy to say the least (but I have never been involved in anything like that so what do I know). </div>

I think that thinking something is "weird" and still loving them is two different things. You bet I would look at my [imaginary] twin brothers and think, yeah you two having sex is ODD but I don't think I wouldn't love them anymore. I think being freaked out is a normal reaction to seeing something so unexpected.

ETA: Polygamy doesn't bother me but I don't think you can compare polygamy to incest.

Apparently there are all sorts of meanings for towel method. Who knew.

Celles · February 2012

AATB -- I honestly don't know. I think I'd be more likely to be weirded out if it were two hypothetical siblings (like Mara, I only have one) rather than two complete strangers... but the idea of incest in general doesn't produce any visceral reaction in me. I'm okay with pretty much anything that happens between consenting adults that doesn't result in unwanted harm.

The only towel method I knew of is a way to fix a broken XBox 360, so I guess I learned something today haha.

Blueyed228 · February 2012

Also- J&K has been a little over the top recently with the "Guys COME ON, this is obviously not real!" I happened with the dress thread and it comes off a little "You guys are stupid if you think this is real".

Unbelievable stuff happens all the time. If you had told me twins would be banging, I would have laughed at you, but doesnt mean it didnt happen.

maratea · February 2012

As long as everyone is a consenting adult, I don't give a fuuck what they do in their bedrooms or who they choose to be in a relationship with. It's not that I think I'm more "enlightened" or whatever phrases you choose, it's that I don't care about stuff like this. It's none of my business and I don't think it's anyone else's business either.

ErinG93 · February 2012

I don't give a single fuuck what two consenting adults do, but I sure as hell am going to think it's weird. The twin thing grossed me out, particularly because they weren't consenting adults when the sexual relationship started, but I don't think it should be illegal for them to be together. Polygamy doesn't bother me in the slightest and I don't think it's that weird, really. I didn't convey that in the thread very well, but eh.

Nebb · February 2012

Polygamy is totally not the same as fucking your sibling.

Blueyed228 · February 2012

So mara- if your brother walked in to your bedroom and said "Lets get it on!" you would not be weirded out?

mica178 · February 2012

If identical twins had sex, wouldn't that just be out-of-body masturbating? Kidding. Ditto what Blue said. Sorry, I don't care if they can't reproduce, incest is incest.

Would you have a reaction or be shocked/appalled by an 18 year old banging their mother or father?

I disagree that as a part of the immediate family it "isn't your business." Unless you were raised in a home where it was taught that it is ok to be in sexual relationships with your family members, it totally shakes the foundations of your family.

chirpchirp · February 2012

I do think it has a little bit of an "enlightened" attitude about it though. It's a completely out of the ordinary situation and to say something along the lines of it being totally normal and understandable is kind of bullshit. PP said it perfectly- you don't have to care what they do, but it is fucking weird.

chelseamb11 · February 2012

I agree with Blue. I don't buy that anyone truly finds it normal for twins to be having sex. You might accept it and love them despite that, that doesn't mean you don't find it strange.

</div><div>That's true and this is difficult because this is all hypothetical..WWYD situation.

</div><div>Man, this brings me back to all of my social studies/women's studies classes where we talked about all sorts of things... incest, polygamy, LGBT, etc. The main point brought up in each class was if it really IS wrong or does society condition us to view all of these things as wrong, etc. etc....</div>

When I first read the article (before I read they were fraternal, not identical) I thought it was pretty narcissistic, since you'd basically be having sex with someone who looks exactly like you.

I know I'm going to sound all hippie doo "fight the corporations man" right now, but it's only out of the ordinary because it's so ingrained in our society that it is wrong. Just like for a long time it was (and in some cases still is) very much believed that being gay was wrong or that interracial relationships were wrong.

Also, the towel method whatthefuckeveritscalled is gross because it's unsanitary waste from your body.

Even minus sex, I feel like having an idendical twin would be super weird. I know people see themselves in mirrors all the time, but to actually see a whole other "you" would be really trippy to me. Granted I didn't grow up with it so I'm not used to the idea.
