It would be incorrect to say that its just our daughters. Our children at large irrespective of sex are not safe if they are not aware of their basic right. The right to protect their own body.

This is an absurdly poor article, in that it only reports anecdotes and opinions, when there are empirical studies available. The most extensive of these studies was reported on the BBC news in the late 1990's. An interview of hundreds of middle-class and upper-middle-class young women found that approximately 75% (!) had been sexually molested growing up, with fathers, uncles, and cousins being common perpetrators. A report that includes only vague anecdotes and opinions, when there are hard and horrifying empirical data available, evades the pervasiveness of the phenomenon, and leaves it to the reader to assume these are only occasional regrettable phenomena. This constitutes terrible reporting, which only supports the Indian desire to repress the severity of the problem.

75 of all sexual abuse victims had been molested by family members, not that 75 were molested

i think incest is more than a taboo in India, However I find nothing wrong in it. Incest or any such thing is wrong only when others suffer like your partner is not interested. There are so many people who really enjoying incest as it is the best and safe mode of sex. There is no need to control ones feelings if one sees a beautiful girl or handsome boy. Everyone is enjoying incest and all religions support it also.

sorry I dont agree with you.
In life one needs several type of relationships.Yes, such incestous relations exist in all societies and may be is on the increase,but two wrongs cant make one right wrong.I condemn such relationships.The society should condemn.

raj, lax's argument was not "2 wrongs make right", you may disagree but you have not explained the justification. An incest romance would not prevent people from having different relationship types, like friendships.

Incest is not just a taboo in India but it is so all over the world among civilized communities; and that is what differentiates man from monster, human from a beast!
It is only the basest form of human who can have sex with daughter, son sibling or parent.And those who think there is nothing wrong with incest may perhaps be indulging in it themselves and needs to have a prolonged session with a psychotherapist!!

incest between siblings is now quite common in india, young boys and girls r enjoying it as you can hardly find any complain against a brother or a sister, but its happening, growing day by day. may be because of the taboo things that we still hv to obey. and in our region young boys and girls cant go out with bf or gf or bring them at home which is very common in western countries, so boys and girls do it inside home!!! i learned lots about incest in india at Indian incest Everyone should realize why its spreading day by day. thnx
