I have a curious and inquiring mind. I’ve pondered on many riddles of the universe, the meaning of life, etc. Yet I’ve never wondered why most fathers don’t want to have sex with their daughters. Have you? ---

> [@Kythereia](#): > > Kel, incest is **wrong** every which way you want to put it. To discuss it casually on a messageboard–a family-friendly messageboard… Well, one would think that incest would be the epitome of family-friendly activities. I mean, we are talkin’ about very friendly families, right? Then again, that Oedipus sure was a motherfucker. ---

Whether or not a topic is reasonable has everything to do with the motive of the OPer. In this case, it’s not appropriate. ---

> [@trublmakr](#): > > I have a curious and inquiring mind. I’ve pondered on many riddles of the universe, the meaning of life, etc. Yet I’ve never wondered why most fathers don’t want to have sex with their daughters. Have you? As I stated before, it’s a perfectly valid question in the realm of anthropology. Was my freshman anthro teacher a pervert? He discussed this very same subject. How about the author of the anthropology textbook? He asked a perfectly valid anthropological question. He should have phrased it more clinically, and making it a poll in IMHO was a poor choice… **Kel** , if you are still interested in the subject, you might get the answers to your question in a college freshman anthropology textbook. ---

You know, **Kel** , you have a bent–excuse the phrase–toward attracting negative attention. A few times is coincidence; time after time is a pattern. It’s like you deliberately seek it out. Now I wonder why that is? Knock it off, **Kel** , or we will dispense with your presence. Take this as a dead serious warning, because it is.
