writes:i would like to know if sex between siblings, is bad or actually a taboo? and why? is it just because of society norms? is it because we have been born and educated with the thought that it is bad, even though we have experimented when we were kids? i am not talking about having kids or getting married, but just just physical love making to show love. i have a older sister to whom i have been physically attracted right from my teens. always been protective, loving towards her, with of course the normal sibling differences like everyone else.would love to know honest opinions from older sister's out there. thanx.

 I'm personally shocked and appalled by some of the blatantly intolerant and ignorant replies here. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a consensual adult relationship, regardless of blood. These arguments are about as prejudiced as the railing of interracial romance 40 years ago.I would firstly like to point out that there are no laws in the United States, or even most of the free world, restricting the rights of Reproduction, something which is suppose to be guaranteed under the UN Human Rights charter. And in fact, many people misrepresent exactly how risky incestuous coupling can be, which isn't actually much at all.Regardless, there is still the matter of social stigma, as these comments clearly show, becoming physically involved with a relative is likely to produce unwarranted discrimination or even harassment. And, depending on the level of genetic similarity, you even stand the chance of legal recourse for a victimless crime, varying between local laws.That being said, the subject itself should be cautiously handled, if you're not careful, you could damage whatever platonic relationship you have with her, permanently. It is important to know the other party's opinions and feelings on such a subject.

 I'm not going to judge, you are attracted to your sibling.. however acting on this usually causes both parties emotional and psychological damage. There are reasons why this is illegal, get yourself a girlfriend and lust after them.

I personally think sex between siblings should never happen - pregnancy isnt always planned, and what if your sister fell pregnant? I know you say marriage and children would not be on the agenda, but sex is designed for making children. Even in this day and age with all the contraceptions, noone is ever 100% fully protected. As you probably know, a child born through an incestrious relationship is not only at risk from the same genetic diseases of the parents, but it would be unfair having to live with the reputation of being the product of illegal activity. I also think that an increase in sex between siblings would open doors for all kinds of perverted activity out there. A more accepted view towards it would probably end up in fathers and daughters, and mothers and sons, getting it on. It may even cause parents to feel the need to 'educate' their children, or it could increase family rapes. As a sister and a daughter, the thought of incest makes me feel sick. If any of my (four) brothers made a move on me, I would probably cut all ties with them. Family is there for support, not sexual relationships. However, as an open-minded person (I like to think), sex between siblings is probably a fantasy for lots of people, therefore cannot be wrong - as a thought. It shouldn't be acted upon for many reasons. But then, you get many scenarios where long-lost siblings end up together, and that seems to be more acceptable.

 i still think its wrong whether society says so. she is your sister you help each other in life but as far as being in a relationship i think it is wrong and many people think the same whether the law or whatever comes into play. if we were ment to sleep with our family everyone would be doing and wouldnt think of it being wrong. so no i think it is wrong and those who do it need help.

 I disagree, I bet many people will not be attracted to their siblings. I think people who are attracted to their siblings are in a minority. My personal point of view is that, well if both of the siblings want to have a relationship and they actually aren't just perverted, then good luck to them. But such things are not for me, and I am not attracted to my brothers in any way whatsoever. They are good friends. But that's it. And even thinking about having sex with them makes me feel a bit sick.

kev2010 is verified as being by the original poster of the questionthank you so much for your replies, it indeed has helped a lot to know a womens point of view.
but i was talking from a personal point of view not from a view where law, personal values, religion, caste, race etc...
i would really appreciate it even if the same people replied again but with personal views.
but anyways thanks guys for your time and views.
please don't judge me as a pervert or mentally sick guy.
i am just talking about thats been a thought, or rather a fantasy. not a person who would act upon it, as the relationship matters much more than any fantasy.
I bet many of you out there would agree to this, may be guys as well as girls, getting attracted to their siblings, or even getting physically involved with them.

 It is a crime. It's called incest if you didn't know.
This is because, should one sibling become pregnant, the two sets of genes coming from each parent are too similar, and the child could be born with all sorts of disabilities, deformities etc. Even with contraception, incest is still a crime.

Siblings are not allowed to have sex/get married and have children because the children of siblings have a much higher chance of being born with defects and not capable of living. Sex between family members is called incest, and you might want to read up on it and see why it is forbidden in most countries. Basically it is about genes. You and your closest family share a lot of the same genes. Whatever chances you have for a serious decease will increase by a lot should you have children together. However if the child is being made from parents of different set of genes, it is more likely to be healthy and normal.
There are of course cases where the children end up to be just fine, but because of these risks it is illegal in most countries. Many siblings also can not think of each other in a sexual way, and so might be disgusted by the thought of incest. That is another reason for why it is frowned upon by society and not socially acceptable. Not to mention the complications, many experience that when they and their friends have sex or are intimate their relationship changes, and they are unable to stay friends afterwards. Imagine if it was with a sibling that you can't just avoid or ignore, but would have to be forever uncomfortable around.

erm no its not a good thing anyway you see it its incest which means that if you ever had a child together whether your were taking precautions or not would 90% come out with defaults or deformaties. their are rules put in places so these things dont happen you share the same blood and thats were you should draw the line being in a relationship with a sibling is wrong for that reason and others! also you are mixing the love for a sister as a love for a partner your making things feel different because you beleive they are when you deeply love and care for your sister and thats were you should knows rules law and common sense should come in. people who do follow through with incest are wrong and mentally challenged and should be helped by doctors!!! i cant explain just how WRONG it is..

It is natural to be protective of course, and lots of brothers and sisters can be attracted to one another because you share a strong bond, and your have the same genes so you are similar. attraction is normal, sex isnt.
It is regarded as a bad thing because, one society has taught us it is wrong but two sex can lead to children. because your genes are similar, the child born can have lots of problems when born. it isnt natural for brothers and sisters to have sex.

 It's illegal! Sleeping with any family member is called incest!
One of the reasons this is illegal is because if the girl was to get pregnant, even you were careful, the baby is more likely to a have some sort of physical birth defect and/or disability. This is because of the mix of genes.
I have done a little research tho and this is what is said about India: "Indian legal statutes do not contain any specific provisions against incest. However, among certain groups of Hindus, marriage within the gotra (a very loosely defined extended family) is frowned upon and may even result in honor killings. Conversely, marriages among cousins is not only tolerated, but encouraged amongst asian communities."
Here in the UK you could face up to 14 years in prison if you were caught.
Laws on this vary a lot in the USA but in some states you could face up to 20 years in prison...
