I am sooo happy to have found this site! I stumbled across it when I was searching madly for a "pro-incest support group". You know, maybe something like Incest Anonymous so I could go and share things and learn from others.. no such luck so far. :'( But, I did find GSA which made me very excited to say the least. I don't know who or where the creators are but I am thanking them with every fiber of my being right now!

I saw your post (1st one I assume) & read it. I'm hoping by you saying "pro incest group", your heart was in the right place. We who have experienced GSA, whether or not it resulted in intimacy, do not regard the actions as incest. When incest is mentioned, society (even us with GSA) get a clear mental picture. That's not what we, or this site, is about, in any shape form or fashion. In fact, we feel GSA isn't incest (except for the legal definition). There's multiple reasons for this. We feel that taking advantage of anyone by using measures associated with incest is abhorrent. Using force, manipulation, & authority is, & should be a horrible crime. If you read our posts, you understand we are dealing with reunions of lost family members that we didn't grow up with, nor developed the traditional family ties that normally govern behavior that takes years to develop. So, hopefully, you don't expect us to be "pro incest". As I said, I hope this wasn't what you meant.--cedarfprest

Yeah it was my first post.. it's interesting you mention the thing about the word incest because as I was just telling my father last weekend, when I hear it I assume it's consensual. I have no idea why, but I do. I feel incest is one completely seperate thing from others like rape or abuse and in my head they just don't mesh. I will, however, keep in mind that my thoughts aren't shared by everyone else and refrain from using it here.

My response wasn't to stifle free speech, you should say whatever you feel is appropriate for you (tactfully please). I just wanted you to know the mind-set of our group (in general). I dare say none of the members view themselves, or this site as a "pro incest". While I struggled with GSA with a reunited half-sister, another half-sister was molested by an uncle. I wanted to strangle him, when I found out. He preformed the same "act" as I did with my h/s, so what was the difference? I didn't know my h/s, as a sister, the bonding process overwhelmed us & we were swept away before we knew it, & it very very mutual. The uncle plotted & schemed to find my other h/s when she was without protection, & used his stature (he was babysitting her younger siblings), to force himself on her. When incest is brought up, usually the latter senerio is pretty much in line with what people think of. We are NOT LIKE THAT. FYI, & Thanks for your attitude.--cedarforest

I understand, I just never heard of the term GSA before so "incest love" is all I ever thought of it as. Also, as this site came up under the Google search for "pro-incest support group" I thought it was a generally accepted term to use. Sorry bout that; probably should have asked first being new and everything and it being such a delicate subject. When I found this site and showed it to my daddy we both were like "genetic sexual attraction.. that's genius!What a very good phraseing for consensual incest without the stigma the word 'incest' might instill in people!" .. anyway, thanks. I greatly appreciate being able to speak about this topic freely, and it's very nice to know people here are so nice about newcomers like me. You COULD have attacked me and raged on about how wrong I was but you didn't. That makes me respect this site all the more. It really is a wonderful resource and I am absolutely giddy about starting here as a member.

I sensed you meant no harm, you seem very nice. I wish you the best & hope you find the satisfaction I found on this site. There's no doubt, that I'm totally different after learning about GSA. If you get a chance, read My Story, posted by me in early June. Just like you, finding a persons initial post will usually tell you allot about their circumstances.

Another thing to keep in mind too, many, possibly even a majority, of the people who post regularly haven't engaged in a consumated relationship. Sometimes the GSA isn't shared by both, even if it is, many times they are able to refrain for the best interests of themselves or other family members. Others, like mermaid, are innocent victims of GSA that their spouse, child, or other family members are undergoing. But, we all understand each other. We all know this isn't about sexual urges (that would definitely be another site), it's about bonding with those ripped apart from us, but finally reunited. Unfortunately, this process can, & in many cases does, cross the established boundries of a typical healthy sibling relationship. I hope our conversations are helpful.--cedarforest

They are! I mostly spent my first day before becoming a member sniffing up articles on father/daughter since that is the kind I am affiliated with but reading any of the posts is helpful because the same feelings are there and even if they aren't, or from a different perspective (like Mermaid) than my own it is still quite helpful in understanding GSA as a whole.
