Reading Literotica

he reads stories at literotica site, but what worries me, most of the stories are about incest. (mother and son!) Does this mean he did this w/his mother? Who can help me with an answer?

People read this kind of stuff doesn't mean they really did it, not even they want. Maybe reading this things just turns him on.

As a psychologist, I find most of the attraction for people is with the forbidden or taboo nature of the material, not any want or need to act out the fantasy(s). Some I have spoken to were really interested or aroused by the stories, yet turned off by the actual reality. There was a common thread for some males of the enjoyment of this literature and the arousal by themes of morally depraved, 'easy', 'desperate' or overtly sexual women.
It does not by any account allude to the fact that something like this occured. Quite the opposite, the majority of people I have dealt with who have experienced this suffered from intense guilt, displeasure and were not aroused by the thought of repeating the act. Taken purely as fantasy it does not mean there is any intention to act this out.

I'm no psychologist... but here is my theory.

I read these stories as well, in fact... I ONLY read brother/sister incest when I visit literotica.

I find it's safe for me to read these since I have no brother and therefore cannot 'fall into temptation'.
-- They are forbidden but very unlikely to make me go insane.

I believe that is the danger with these fantasies. For example... if you watch kiddie porn (which I don't advise anyone to do), your mind becomes weakened by the possibility of acting out what you see (since we are very curious creatures) since there are children everywhere... and they could be easily accessed, one could easily lose their mind and 'fall into temptation'. Same goes with incest stories. We are often afraid of what may happen to us if we let ourselves be pulled into things... and therefore we stay away from them. However, there are times that for some reason, we end up being pulled into them... and then we're caught in their trap. They become an obsession that either we continue filling with fantasies... or make them a reality.

When we read, we often place ourselves in the main character's shoes. We see ourselves with our family members. That is also a reason we tend to stay away... because next time we see our mother or father, we go back to the story. It's like alchohol, I believe. The first taste is disgusting... but then you slowly acquire the taste, but if you drink too much... you can become an alchoholic.

Same thing when you've HAD this desire in the back of your head... but realize that it may never be. These stories either keep you sane or give you the courage to act out the plot.

This person is either mentally strong... or has a secret crush on mom. I mean... sometimes moms are hot... it doesn't mean he'll act out his desires. When you're close to mom or dad in the way that you're supposed to, you don't even dare think about them like this (if you were raised appropriately). So either he's not that close to mom... or he may actually have a thing for her.

Well... but of course, I'm just sharing my thoughts.
We love danger... but we all know we have to stay as safest possible. That is why I dare not read sister/sister, daughter/mother, daughter/father stories.... and rather stay with brother/sister stories. If I have no brother, where lies the danger?

I really hope all the above stories are complete fiction,or else people are really damned to hell,and humanity is polluted to the worst extent

chances are the fact thats hes reading it means it has never happened and no it doesn't mean he wants to either

Fullcore and Heartless1 both have very good answers, but I belive that it's the individual that is reading the story that has the answer to your question. Their intent could be simple arousal or curiosity as opposed to the interest in the actual act. If you are worried then you should discuss this with your husband. Just approach the subject carefully and with the openess to discuss his feelings and yours practically. You may be relived at what he has to say and the communication will only bring you closer. And if (ah the famous "IF") the answer is not to your liking, then calmly discuss your feelings as well and perhaps an outside souce (therapist or counselor) may be in need. Hope this was helpfull.

who said one must act out? its just fiction, just to entertain.

I read stories on this site often....and youre mention that "most of the stories are about incest" is not correct. In fact a very small percentage are. There are all kinds of stories of romance all the way to the raunchiest sex out there. So don't assume that all he is doing is reading stories about incest.

I have a grown daughter who is the sexiest girl I've ever known. I love to read daddy-daughter stories, and I used to fantasize about my daughter regularly when she was a teen and lived at home. It was the most enjoyable, hottest masturbation I have ever enjoyed. But there is no way I would ever say anything to her or lay a hand on her, because she is my kid and I would die before I did anything that could hurt her. It is important to separate fantasy from reality in your own mind. No child wants to have sex with their parent. Enjoy whatever fantasies you want, but make sure you understand that they are strictly fantasies. DO NOT EVER ACT ON THEM, and you should be fine. If you find yourself wishing that you could act on your fantasies, please get profesional mental health help. Your number one job as a parent is to protect your children, even if they must be protected from you.

If you masturbated while fantasizing about your teenage daughter, you may want to seek preofessional help yourself!

Its just pure sexual content. It's thrilling, it's naughty, it's taboo. DOnt worry about it because everyone has that little something weird going on and as long as its not acted upon, you're sweet.

I read incest stories all the time. I am married with 4 children and I have absolutly no attraction to my own family members (except my wife) in any way shape or form; but the taboo of another person doing it and me being voyeur to the experience is very erotic. Before you naysayers start bashing others on their choice of sexual fantasy you should reflect on your own thoughts; if you even begin to say you are 100% within cultural norms inside your own brain just stop and go away because its a guarateed lie. What goes on inside your husbands head is your husbands property; not to be second guessed by you unless his actions are impacting your life (thoughts do not quantify impact) or he decides to share. Fantasies are very personal and should remain beyond the realm of the peanut gallery to comment; this entire thread constitutes that peanut gallery and the original posters own disregard to their spouse's privacy.

I have become a avid reader of mother- son incest. I become really aroused by the subject but really don't have an answer for my fascination, although it may be the mature - young scenario that draws me. I will say that I am a male " on in years " and has had a great childhood and a good family life while growing up. I have multiple syblings and great parents but never once had the thought or desire of an incestual situation cross my mind. I was as a young boy and still to this day a sexually driven individual, as a youth I like older women (normal boy)and was fortunately blessed with decent looks and was able to sample some of that fruit, although... as I have aged I now more lean to young women but I imagine that happens to most of us with years. Sorry to ramble on so!.....But I think it's important to see that I'm just your average heterosexual male that found a subject in porn that excites him, as in your man that your concerned about and more than likely has the same thoughts as me. Be grateful for the fact that he's willing to share with his fantasy rather than keeping them hidden and to himself. Enjoy them with him you may find some spice there.......jetrad
