The thing is, if I were a twin-fucking-twin, and some greasey netizen came up asking if I and my twin where interested a (2*1+1)some, my first reaction would not be that this is a person I trust enough to share my intimate desires with even if those desires were aligned.
Comment on Anon has a very specific goal

I know it’s a popular media trope, but I’m not sure how common twincest is irl

I can’t imagine that many twins fuck. It’s still incest, there’s probably genetic factors that stop them being into that

There’s a window of time in early childhood (up to about the age of 6) where, if raised with other kids, such individuals will develop a repulsion at the idea of having sex with each other. It happens with siblings, but it can also happen with people we’re unrelated to - just growing up in the same household. It’s called the Westermark Effect.
If anon wants a chance at this, his best bet would be to find twins that were raised apart from each other. Quite a tall order.

Love how Westermark decided this was the effect he wanted to put his name on

I think it would be even funnier if he had a different name in mind but the public was like “Nope! This shit is all you bud.”

Worse, twincest creates much more congenital abnormalities. In this case they’re both the same sex so it doesn’t matter really.

twincest cannot cause more abnormalities than “regular” (gross) sibling incest. If a set of twins are of diferent sex they are not identical, ie they come from different sperm and different egg. Same as any sibling pair

Almost… What you’re saying is only true for fraternal or dizygotic twins. It’s possible for a fertilized egg to divide in a way that it separates and both cells grow into twins, these are called monozygotic twins. Now, usually monozygotic twins are usually of the same gender but, there can be mutations. And even in those, the chance of both being fertile is rarer, because of the chance that the mutations usually are X0 leading to Turner’s syndrome in the female child.

how’s it incest if there’s no chance of procreation?
Lumidaub@feddit.org 1 month ago
Incest is just “sex between close relatives”. Procreation isn’t necessary.
(In this and similar cases I wouldn’t see an issue with it, btw. If they’re having fun, who am I to judge?)
IronBird@lemmy.world 1 month ago
sounds like an outdated law tbh, incest bad cause it leads to incest babies. no chance of procreation no incest baby

Incest refers to the act, not the product.
