The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Apologies for title spelling errors. Apparently the title box doesn't arouse autocomplete or spell check.

Seriously. For my entire life I've been able to look at any random porn site and know I wasn't going to see various things : children, rape, insest, scat, etc etc.

When the fuck did incest porn become acceptable? Let alone mainstream?

There's not even an opinion to NOT see it. (but I'm given the option to not see gay porn)

Like. I don't care that it exists. I'm not shaming anyone for being into it but

I DON'T WANT TO SEE IT ON MY FUCKING PORN LISTS

Weird cluster of socially isolated weirdos who get off on the taboo and/or actually want to fuck a relative but know it would end in like the worst way imaginable if that became known.

Basically picture an entire demographic of George Michael Bluths

for some poeple, taboo is the fetish. whatever it is, as long as it's forbidden

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 3 points 9 months ago

They're not related so it's not weird

One of my favourite features on pornhub (probably exists on other sites too, but only found it there) is that you can actually exclude categories/tags.

Funny thing to be mad about but yeah, annoying.

Your title talks about "step" porn but the post is about incest.

Step-relatives are not biological relatives, so not the same as incest. And I'd guess the reason it is popular is because a lot of people have a lot of inappropriate thoughts about members of their step-family, and because there is still an element of taboo which gets some people off.

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago

They use "step" as a way to say "oh no it's totally not incest fantasy".

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 2 points 9 months ago

By the amount of step porn I would estimate the number of people with step family members to be much larger than it actually is.

I answered this in another thread, so I'm just gonna copy and paste my answer here. Sorry if the context comes off slightly odd, like I said it was originally elsewhere:

I've thought about the topic and I think I can answer why there has been a rise in step-porn.

I think it's pretty simple: people are more isolated, and people now socialize online.

We're simply seeing less of each other than we ever have (especially during the pandemic, but this isn't specific just to that timeline). Whereas we used to go out and socialize and develop crushes in the real world, for a lot of people, especially a lot of young men, these days the vast majority, if not all, of the non-online social interactions they're having with the opposite sex are within their own homes. And while our brains may be adapting to this new internet landscape well enough, I think our bodies are still lagging behind. When you're an 18 year with raging hormones, the sexual drive extends beyond the reasonable brain. And so it attaches to what your libido recognizes as the other sexually viable candidates regularly in your sphere of influence: the women inside your own home. And thus they develop crushes on their mothers, their siblings, their stepsiblings, and are turned on by pornography that lets them indulge in this taboo but still very real crush.

And to be clear, I am attempting to explain the phenomenon, I am not attempting to excuse or justify it. Incest is gross and faux/step-incest may be biologically better but is still pretty socially/culturally fucked.

I'm just glad I grew up in the 90s before our lives had moved so heavily online.
