The title of the thread is "Incest encounters and encouragements"
However, as is apparent by many replies/ messages posted on this thread, it seems lot of people do not know what is incest and what is the difference between incest and sex amongst family members.
First of all, merely watching/ peeping to see any family member nude or semi-nude do not make it sex. It is voyeurism, not sex. Every normal and physically as well as mentally healthy young individual, during puberty and even post puberty, gets an urge to see opposite sex person nude and/ or indulging in sexual activity. It’s a different matter that some shows courage to admit it while others do not have courage to confess. For any activity to be considered as sex, there has to be physical contact with other person. If not penetrative sex or oral sex, at least physical contact has to be there.
Incestuous sex is defined as sex between two individuals who are blood relatives. All relatives or family members are not blood relatives.
For a boy; paternal & maternal grand mothers (दादी और नानी), mother (माँ), real sisters (सगी बहनें), maternal aunts (मौसियाँ), paternal aunts (बुआ), maternal and paternal cousin sisters (चचेरी और ममेरी बहनें) are blood relatives. Paternal aunts (चाची, ताई), wife of maternal uncle (मामी) are not blood relative except in rare cases where they happen to be blood relative prior to their marriage.
For an adult man, apart from all listed above for a boy; his own daughters (पुत्रियां), daughters of real and cousin brothers (सगे और चचेरे भाइयों की बेटीयाँ), daughters of real and cousin sisters (सगी और चचेरी बहनों की बेटीयाँ), daughters of maternal and paternal uncles and aunts (मामा, बुआ और मौसी की बेटीयाँ) are blood relatives. However; daughters of co- brothers (साले की बेटीयाँ), daughters of sister-in- laws (साली की बेटीयाँ), wives of real and cousin brothers (भाभियाँ, चाहे वो सगे भाइयों या चचेरे, ममेरे भाइयों की पत्नियां हों), sisters of his wife (सालियाँ), wife of his wife's brother (सहलज) are not blood relatives.
Similarly for a girl; Paternal & material grand father (दादा और नाना), father (पिता), real brothers (सगे भाई), maternal uncle (मामा), paternal uncles (चाचा, ताऊ), maternal & paternal cousin brothers (चचेरे और ममेरे भाई) are blood relatives. Husband of maternal aunt (मौसा), husband of paternal aunt (फूफा) are not blood relatives, unless they happen to be blood relative prior to their marriage.
For an adult woman, apart from all listed above for a girl; her own sons (पुत्र), sons of real and cousin brothers (सगे और चचेरे भाइयों के बेटे), sons of real and cousin sisters (सगी और चचेरी बहनों के बेटे), sons of maternal & paternal uncles and aunts (मामा, बुआ और मौसी के बेटे) are blood relatives. However; brither-in-laws (देवर या जेठ, चाहे वो पति के सगे भाई या चचेरे, ममेरे भाई हों), sons of husband’s real brothers, real sisters, cousin brothers, cousin sisters (पति के सगे भाइयों, सगी बहनों, पति के चचेरे और ममेरे भाइयों, पति की चचेरी और ममेरी बहनों के बेटे), husband of her husband's sisters (नन्दोई) are not blood relatives.
Therefore, only the sexual relation amongst blood relatives as defined above (I may have missed some in listing) is incest, with others it is only sex between family members.
