      I mean, a large chunk of the porn these days is incest based. When I read the title I wondered why it was news.

      The title is down playing it. It was child porn he was exchanging.

        Is incest porn illegal? I assumed it was child porn in the article. Seems like “step” incest porn is everywhere. Always thought it was pretty gross tbh. The “step” thing always seemed like a thinly veiled wink and nod type of thing.

          Generally not. However in some contexts “incest” refers specifically to fathers raping their daughters

            You’d still call that child porn tho. Weird phrasing in the headline.

              I think they’re trying to say that in some circumstances the “daughter” could be an adult. It would still be rape (in this example) but not child abuse.

                  Agreed. However, you did reply to a comment that specifically said “in some contexts”.

          I know that incest itself is illegal in many places, so it’s not a far stretch for actual incest porn to be illegal. I’d imagine it’s a state by state thing.
