Fireman15,
Incest is rampant among many families. Families that ‘would swear to High Heaven,’ that no such thing existed.
I wouldn’t bet my son’s lives on ANYONE having access to kissing/cuddling/anything physical.
And back then in the ‘old days,’ was there the fear of STDs, HIV, and the such going around?
Nope. Didn’t think so.
Oh hell yes! We were scared out of our little minds. We called those types of diseases cooties; we all knew that the aunts and cousins were teaming with them especially the ones who were boozers. So we stayed as far away as possible.
