Lot's daughters got him drunk and had sex with him in order to "preserve the family line." I suppose that they can be excused for such warped thinking-- not long before that, their father had offered them up to an unruly mob, explaining to them that the girls were virgins so that we don't misunderstand what he meant when he told them that they could "do what you like with them."
Or as others would say, times were different back then. Offer your virgin daughters up for some gang rape? Date rape your own father in return? As Lot would no doubt have said, "that's just how we roll!"
It's not certain what happened. Lot's recollection is confused by the pillars of salt he licked.
