the problem with both is what happens after pregnancy, as if that's an automatic fact. with incest the baby has genetic issues, and with underage sex they're too young to take care of the kid. but if no one got pregnant, then what's the big deal?

well first incest and underage sex are two different things. The problem with incest, even if no one gets pregnant, is the emotional and physical abuse on a child. Usually incest is rape and no one should go through that. As far as underage sex, the problem is more along the lines of growing up too fast, the kids may not know what they are getting in to. STDs, pregnancy often happens because they might not be able to buy protection. It's best if people wait until they are prepared and ready for sex.

Just like Rowell said, I don't know what the big deal is about incest even if the person is underage as long as it is not forced upon them. It is not uncommon for brothers and sisters, sisters and sisters, and brothers and brothers, to be curious about sex and experiment with each other at a young age, and many psychologist say that this type of behavior is healthy as long as there is not a big age difference inbetween them. There are even studies that show that parent child incest is not always harmful if sex is something that is open and not stigmatized in the household. However, the percentages of the cases are extremely low so they are overshadowed by the negative affects. If you want to look more up just search: child sexuality or incest at wikipedia.

Underage sex? Well, if the child wants to have sex. I guess its okay. depends on the situation. a child about 12 and up can make this decision for themselves. but they have to have all the facts about STDs and pregnancy. Some children may profit from being able to have sex with a person that they love.
Incest? this is one of our strongest taboos. But if its initiated by the child with no proding from an adult. Why not. but only if the child truly wants to. Sometimes a child's need for physical contact can be overwhelming and they can't find a partner outside the family to help them. It should never be the parent that suggest sex. Only the child can make this decision and the adult should make every effort to change their mind. Get them interested in other people. but if the child insist on the soft comfort of a mother or fathers arm then I believe its okay.

Underage sex I think its really up to a parent. We give too much of our freedom as parents to the governments of the world. They tell us if and how we can punish. And have taken the time when a parent decides their child is ready for sex. I don't believe in rape or nonconsentual sex of any kind. but If its consenual and the child is say about 11 or older and wants to have sex with a friend or parent then its okay. I think it would make a more loving family.

I often wonder myself. So much is said about incestous relationship. It deals mainly with the trauma the child undergoes. What if the child likes it and does not get tpregnant? I cannot seem to understand all the rumblings about it.
Iknow of cases where girls actually put themselves in place for it.
I alsoo know that it should be up to the man to put her in her place and teach her about it but the temptation is really great.
