Triggering: How common is Sibling Incest

[geminiJ]

I curious how common you think Siblings that are both between 11-17 would experiment with sex together .

No one has to say if they have done it unless your really brave this is just more about what you think is the rate others might be doing it in secret .

[Raining Glitter]

Well if it helps, I have a triplet brother and sister, and I also have a little sister. We never experimented with each other and I'm not planning to either. I'm not sure about other families do it. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a drunk kiss or something. I guess it really depends on the family and the relationship between the siblings.

I answer "None Siblings Don't Do This". Where I come from incest isn't heard of, unless it is a rape situation between family members. I've never experimented with my sister, and I've never heard of any of my friends experimenting with their siblings either. Incest is basically illegal in most places (correct me anyone if I'm wrong), so what you're asking about isn't a very common situation.

When I was in high school a girl claimed to have performed oral sex on her little brother but I'm pretty sure she just wanted attention. She also had other stories about other people including persons with mental handicaps and teachers so I never did take her seriously.

I didn't vote though, because I do know of a brother and sister in Germany who were on the news a few years ago, and I know of a couple cases of family intercourse in various places in the states and Canada where several individuals went to jail but nobody ever said was rape (other than statutory).

I would personally never do this, but I did hear of a brother and sister who masturbate together so I guess it's down to personal preference and relationships.

i've heard of someone who was curious about it but i dont think they ever tried it...i could be wrong though

i didnt vote though because from what i understand it was curiousity/fantasy type deal

[I'm-moving-on]

I don't know how often this happens, but I know it definitely does happen.

Brother-Sister or any commonation of sibling intercourse is illegal, but anything further than first cousin is legal in parts of the united states. In Kentucky for example it is legal to marry your first cousin (And onward.)

I've seen a case about this actually, and beforehand had never known that it actually occurred. I know some would say it is just experimenting or that kids don't know any better but surely they understand boundaries.

[AmazonQueen]

wait, i just remember some time back i remember some rumours floating around that a little girl about 7 years old tried oral on her little brother who was 4 years old i think which we found out later was true.

So yes it does happen...but as the above poster said you would think they would know boundies. but i'd like to think the rares times this does happen i really hope its purely curiosity and not idk...something else because yes it is illegal and im pretty sure nothing would be wrong with the child should someone accidently get pregnant with cousins but brother and sister its more likely for birth defects so personally i dont think this is right

I answered "No siblings ever do this" because I think these actions are very uncommon in most developed nations with a population base. In the old days, people often mated with their siblings because of, well, lack of opportunity, but now, I do not think this is common at all. Most of the time, incest is meaning rape. You did not include two siblings masturbating together, and as I have never done this, I can see this happening and that wouldn't be far fetched. The rest of this, very uncommon, and usually unwanted by one party.

[Nicole!]

I've never heard of it happening, nor have I done it.

I thought this was a pretty interesting topic - so I decided to get some statistics on it:

The most commonly reported form of abusive sibling incest is abuse of a younger sibling by an older sibling. A 2006 study showed a large portion of adults who experienced sibling incest abuse have distorted or disturbed beliefs (such as that the act was "normal") both about their own experience and the subject of sexual abuse in general.

Sibling abusive incest is most prevalent in families where one or both parents are often absent or emotionally unavailable, with the abusive siblings using incest as a way to assert their power over a weaker sibling. Absence of the father in particular has been found to be a significant element of most cases of sexual abuse of female children by a brother. The damaging effects on both childhood development and adult symptoms resulting from brother–sister sexual abuse are similar to the effects of father–daughter, including substance abuse, depression, suicidally, and eating disorders.

---- (new statistic)---------

It is estimated that approximately 15% of all people report some kind of sexual activity with a sibling in childhood. More specifically, studies have shown that between 2% (Leader, 1991) and 4% (Finkelhor, 1999) of people have been sexually victimized by a sibling as the sexual contact involved some degree of forced or coercive activity.
---

So yes, there still is decent amount of incest going on - and I know several people who have been through situations like that. We may not always hear about it but the unfortunate problem is there.


Best wishes,
Chris

I've heard about experimentation with or crushes on cousins, but never siblings. It seems more wrong when they're so much more closely related. Either way, any type of incest is illegal most places.

[blumemusik♫]

Yeah, I've heard of experimenting with cousins, but that's actually legal in England, so no worries

But the idea of doing anything with my brothers makes me feel physically sick.

[Sythan]

To answer that "No Siblings Ever Do This" is unrealistic. I know of a brother and sister that when they were younger, like 8 or 9, would give each other oral sex as a form of sex pay. To say that no siblings ever do this is a tad foolish. There are parents who have incestuous relationships with their children, and there are siblings and cousins that also have those kind of relationships. So it does happen, no matter how uncommon, it still happens.

when I was 11 I experimented with a girl briefly that lived in the same house as I did. But she wasn't a blood relative was even a different race didn't even have sex. But actual incest is rare I hope.

[Cuddlebug89]

I'm sure it happens on occasion a brother and sister might experiment with eachother... I would never do it but I'm sure it has happened.

[Jennyjenn1]

I got a bit drunk for new years and there was a couple of sisters. I don't know if they did anything to each other but I know they were naked at least while I was with my ex. So its possible. Things happen I guess sometimes. But I can't say for sure they had any experince as I was to drunk to know for sure.

There are opinions that differ, but it is natural and healthy to follow your feelings. Some people are curious, some aren't. The one's that aren't probably stay that way, but if you are curious and both people want it then why not? It wouldn't be hurting anyone and the one's that aren't involved shouldn't get offended because it's not their business. Follow your heart
