How sick rise in incest porn and TV obsession with ‘taboo’ sibling sex is fuelling vile child abuse in Britain
How sick rise in incest porn and TV obsession with ‘taboo’ sibling sex is fuelling vile child abuse in Britain
Published on April 02, 2025 at 07:16 AM
INCEST porn and Hollywood’s obsession with “taboo”; sex could be fuelling sick child abuse, experts fear.
Specialist cops probed over 4,000 incest reports in the past five years, figures show.
Experts fear Hollywood’s growing fascination with incest could put youngsters at even more risk of child abuseWhite Lotus has shocked viewers this month with a storyline of sex between two brothers
And over one in five rape victims who approached police in 2022 said they were assaulted by family.
It comes amid concerns that “taboo porn”; could be fuelling sick abuse of kids and vulnerable adults.
The University of Birmingham’s Dr Sophie King-Hill, an expert in sibling abuse, warned: “Sensationalising this type of behaviour and abuse is unethical.
“One of the dangers of this type of storyline is the normalisation of sibling sexual behaviour and abuse within society and those that are experiencing it being deterred from reporting as it is seen as mainstream behaviour.
“Using shock factor in a TV programme such as this is doing more harm than good for those experiencing these issues.”;
While in the past Hollywood has shied away from showing incest on screen, it’s a popular theme on pornography websites.
In a recent study, researchers at Durham University found more than 150,000 porn films online and one in ten had titles with terms like “teen”; or “incest”;.
Study author Prof Clare McGlynn said: “The prevalence of incest-themed content matters, as it normalises and legitimises ideas of sexual activity between family members â particularly involving young girls.

“When these messages are consumed by millions every day, the influence extends beyond individual users and filters into broader cultural attitudes.
“In time, we may become desensitised, less likely to understand the prevalence of child sexual abuse, or its seriousness.”;
Forty years ago, only three per cent of pornography was incest-related. An early study of internet porn by academics – in 2006 – found that one per cent depicted sex between family members.
But by 2014, “incest”; was on the list of over-18s website Pornhub’s most popular searches.
Prof McGlynn warned: “The claim that incest porn is fantasy without real-world effects assumes incest is rare, abhorrent. But it’s not.
“We need to ask, in a culture saturated with incest porn, are we more likely to tolerate, excuse or dismiss the realities of incest and sexual abuse?”;
She added: “If we continue to allow incest porn to proliferate, we risk perpetuating a culture that trivialises abuse, undermines survivors and distorts our understanding of what is acceptable in sexual relationships.”;
A massive survey of Aussie men in 2023 found that an obsession with porn could lead to a sick interest in child abuse material.
Child sex abusers Down Under were 11 times more likely to watch violent porn online, researchers found.
Michael Sheath of anti-child abuse charity the Lucy Faithfull Foundation said: “Many of the men I work with describe how as young adults they relied on pornography for entertainment, distraction and escape.

“They describe how a lot of the material they viewed was misogynistic and exploitative, even if it was legal.”;
He warned: “Searches for legal pornography may shift over time to fetishistic pornography, ‘teen’ pornography, and sometimes even to child sexual abuse material, in a series of imperceptible steps.”;
Incest was first officially made a crime in England and Wales in 1908, with ministers worried about the “disastrous consequences”; for children born from incestuous relationships.
It remained an offence until in 2003 Tony Blair’s government brought in new crimes of sexual activity with child or adult family members.
Official Home Office statistics show that 888 people were arrested for incest or having sex with family in 2022, the latest year data is available.
But around of a fifth of the almost 70,000 rape allegations reported to cops that year involved victims who were related to their attacker. That rose to 37 per cent of male rape victims.
But prosecutions for incestuous relationships remain rare.
The Law on Incest in the UK
INCEST refers to sexual activity between close family members, such as siblings, parents and children, or grandparents and grandchildren.
Criminal Offence: Engaging in sexual activity with a close family member is illegal.
Close Family Members: Includes siblings (full or half), parents, children, grandparents, and grandchildren.
Penalties: Those found guilty of incest can face significant legal consequences, including imprisonment.
Protection and Welfare: The law aims to protect individuals and maintain the integrity of family relationships.
Consent Irrelevant: Even if both parties consent, it is still considered a criminal offence.
Analysis of court documents by Flying Eze suggests that four people have appeared in court since November charged with having sex with adult family members.
A further two – including a woman – face incest charges, dating back to the 1990s.
The cases can be difficult to prosecute, with barristers and judges navigating a complex family dynamic.
Top silk John Hardy KC said: “As a barrister you have to keep in mind the need for objectivity and not appear sympathetic to one party over another.”;
‘Incest' was on the list of over-18s website Pornhub’s most popular searches by 2014
IMPACT OF ABUSE
The impact of the abuse can last a lifetime.
Sick Jehovah’s Witness Dennis Cottee, from Wiltshire, was too ill to go to jail after a jury found him responsible for 12 counts of sexually assaulting his daughters in the 1980s. His son Jacques was locked up for almost four years for incest.
Cottee’s younger daughter – abused by him from the age of four – said after the trial: “Justice for me was not a search for a long sentence, it was a search for closure and the truth.”;
Four decades on from her awful ordeal she said: “I grew up unable to talk to him in a way that a normal daughter-father relationship should.
“It is sad that as he has got older he couldn’t say sorry for his actions.”;
Some men have claimed they are unable to stop committing incest.
Robert Cole, from Melksham, Wilts, was jailed for 18 months in 2020 after CCTV caught him performing a sex act on his estranged daughter – who was also charged with sex with an adult family member.
The claim that incest porn is fantasy without real-world effects assumes incest is rare, abhorrent.
Prof McGlynn
He was sent back to prison three years later for having sex with a second daughter, with the judge branding it a “dreadful act”;.
Cole’s barrister suggested he was the victim of “genetic sexual attraction”; – a psychological flaw that results in close relatives “falling in love”;.
That supposed psychological condition has been debunked by scientists.
Dr Sophie King-Hill of the University of Birmingham said: “Portraying this behaviour as biologically expected is incredibly damaging.
“If ‘genetic sexual attraction’ is used as a reason for these behaviours it risks normalising something that is damaging and abusive.”;
