Is this wrong?

I think its fine just weird. Can't think of a rational argument against it.

Only thing I could say against it is that its a 'dream scenario' and reality might not go so smoothly.

I remember getting asked this question in one of my classes because it was a class geared towards law school.

Pretty much, a person who will say that was bad took morals and their opinion into consideration which wouldn't be the "correct" way of answering that question.

No feelings/negatives were found in this story, so yeah, I voted no.

Having sex with your sister is gross IMO. Its not a matter of morals to me, I'm an athiest, but that doesnt mean I cant rationally think its gross to have sex with your sister or your mother or your daughter. Gross.

u don't seem to understand the word rational

There is no right or wrong way of answering that question

i dont think is wrong, like anything and everything is always relative. but since even basic laws of nature prohibit incest just by producing a high risk of abnormality and birth defects gives you an idea how nature is saying "dude this kind shit will fuck you up, but if you're still up for it don't tell me i didnt warn you" lol
wrong no. abormal, very.

yes, but how much did u lose?

Good question, rationally apparently nothing it seems from the responses?

What in the world does atheism have to do with morals?

RE: OP, I personally can't put myself in their shoes since I don't have a sister, but since it harms no one and gave them an enjoyable night together, I see nothing wrong with it.

2.
having or exercising reason, sound judgment, or good sense: a calm and rational negotiator.

I would use this definition. Anyone with a good amount of sense knows it is gross to fuck your sister.
I didnt say it was 'wrong'. I guess thats up to the people having sex to decide. Its still gross though. Eating food out of the garbage is neither 'right' nor 'wrong', but its still gross. Walking around smelling like a port-a-potty on a 100 degree day is neither 'right' or 'wrong', but it is gross.

I only bring that up because when most people use 'morals' to argue against incest they usually bring 'god' into the discussion. Otherwise, nothing, you are right.

The only thing wrong with it, is that one of them broke their promise to keep it a secret.

Society dictates what is right and wrong. If society doesn't know about this then it cannot be right or wrong in the first place. Replace the old tree falling down in the woods with the old brother going down on his sister in the woods with no one around.

as a kid i used to joke with my friends saying if Britney Spears was my sister, I'd still have sex with her. But she looks different nowadays . Thinking about this question now is lol gross for me cuz I got a sister. What they did is not morally wrong, If I personally knew them and found out, I probably wouldn't care.

I would need to see pics of Julie in order to give an answer

why would u ask this? do u have a sister?

would finding your sister attractive also be "gross"?

This is a silly question because right and wrong in this situation is inherently arbitrary.

You need to clarify that before anyone can answer the question.

I have three actually, and I do not think there is a rational reason against this yet I do believe this is wrong and definitely wouldn't do this in this exact scenario lol...Maybe that's why I suck at poker, I can't control my sub-conscious intuitive processes well enough?

All right, if you had a hot sister and were presented with the exact same scenario, would know 100% nobody will ever find out and that there wouldn't be any negative emotions in the future, and you can only gain (clearly gains>losses so you'd be maximizing utility) would you do her?

I have never had a sister so I can't answer that question.

And fwiw someone's response to your question has nothing to do with whether it's right or wrong.

how so?

:O i dont believe in morals so i answer 'dont know'

However this is pretty dam gross, i guess some people are born with less pheramones than others?

Describe what you mean by attractive?
Does this mean you objectively think your sister happens to be a good looking woman? Then no, I think thats pretty standard.
Does this mean you are sexually attracted to her? Yeah, lol, thats gross dude.

For full disclosure I have a sister and she is considerably younger than me. (9 years apart) Perhaps the age difference has something to do with why I find it gross? I dont know, I just think its pretty sick.

because atheists don't have morals obviously... or was the atheism part just a random fun fact about you that wasn't at all related to your response?

I addressed this already.

Many religions implicitly denounce incest on moral grounds. I didnt intend to imply that atheists cant/dont have morals, just pointing out that I'm not required to find it 'wrong', as some people are.
Yeah, it was unnecessary, who fucking cares? I didnt realize it was such a BFD to mention that you're an atheist around here.
