I am 25 years old, and I am currently having sexual intercourse with my 23 year old brother. I got my tubes tied when I was 18 because I never plan on having children, but he still uses a condom.
I consider having my own child unethical because of the strain it places on the environment. I may choose to adopt someday.
I love my brother and we both view our having sex as a natural extension of our mutual love. It feels absolutely amazing, and neither of us has had any regrets about it.
We are not possessive of each other, and allow each other to have any type of other relationship they want, so there is no jealousy. We are both in total support of the others feelings and goals, and we understand they may change. In no way is this a contractual, obligatory, dutiful relationship.
What we are doing is entirely consensual, and there is no issue of power at play. Our relationship is based on mutual respect and love.
Neither one of us was abused in any way. We have two incredibly loving parents who are overjoyed that we enjoy such a close relationship.
Now, in light of all the facts I explained, coupled with the fact that is it impossible for me to conceive children - how is it logical and fair for people to still immediately judge and label our relationship as "wrong" or "disgusting and sick?"
Don't people have the capacity to see things independently from their societies narrow (and often religiously informed) lens?
How can otherwise intelligent people still brand our behavior as wrong?
