incest just seems to be more prevalent in asian countries


it just does. This type of story is almost non-existent in western society.

Is this because Eastern countries are still very pre-dominantly asian, whilst Western countries have become more mixed? I think it is, if everyone looks the same I suppose incest could become easier... kinda sick to say but there ya go

Apparently you don't watch any American horror movies that deal with redneck hillbillies... "this type of story is almost non-existent in western society"... wow.. talk about ignorance. FYI, white people hold the stereotypes for pedophilia & incest (mainly because of rednecks/hillbillies)

There is definitely WAY more incest in Asian movies than Western ones.

Zombies seem to be more prevalent in western countries.

An Awfully Big Adventure is a western film with the same twist.

I was going to mention this one. I figured it would have been forgotten.

I guess you have never seen the movie Deliverance, have you? There is TONS of incest in western society, as much as anywhere else in the world, and that statement that it's "more prevalent in Asian countries" is utterly ignorant. Do some friggin homework before you spew your idiocy all over the internet again, please.

I can't understand your crazy moon language.

I think it's safe to assume the OP is himself the product of incest. Judging by the quality of his posts, several generations at least. Hence his interest in the subject.

Just realized another one guys:

in the Tekken fanchise the character Miguel is infatuated by his sister.
OK Miguel is spanish, but Tekken (and the company that made it) is Japanese.

So, GoT and a lot of those other shows don't count because they're set in a different time zone, but that example does count even though it's of a character from a different country?

K, definitely retarded..

As for where incest is actually most prevalent, it's countries in the middle east and Africa, as well as slavic countries.

Here are some developed countries which are known for their incest rates: Regarding Russia, India, Japan, Belgium, France, Brazil, Portugal, Holland (Netherlands), Romania, Czech Republic, Hungary, Bulgaria, Israel.
Only one East Asian country(Two if you count India.)
Anyway, none of those places likely compare to the American South and places like Alaska.
