Discussion Friday
Time for Discussion Friday again!
This time, inspired by my very rapid descent into a Chinese otome game that tried to be culturally sensitive by translating "哥哥" (older brother*) into "childhood friend" in English, what are your thoughts and feelings about incest/pseudo-incest in fiction?
If you enjoy it, why do you enjoy it?
If you find it uncomfortable, is it for all incest/pseudo-incest related tropes, or are there situations where you are more likely to be okay with them and situations where it's a squick?
(Feel free to share any other related thoughts. I trust you all to be respectful to each other's preferences in fiction!)
*brother, very loosely, because it is not always someone related.
