Individuals like that undoubtedly exist, but would we know about them ??

Not boinking kids regardless of the urges doesn't attract much attention from the authorities; police aren't called, judges and juries never weigh in, and our prisons hold no examples.

Well...that's kind of the point. If they aren't boinking kids they aren't hurting anyone, even if we find the thoughts inside their heads to be very distasteful. That could be said of any illegal activity, imagining doing it and actually doing it are very different things.

Quote:If a specific man is thinking of his step daughter all the while he is fucking his wife, I guess as long as neither of the women in that scenario have the slightest inkling anything curious is going on inside his head while he climaxes is OK ???
Yes. Again, I find it repulsive, but there is nothing illegal about thinking or imagning things, no matter how disgusting or offensive to us. Your hypothetical man isn't infringing on anyone else's rights, nor is he inflicting harm on anyone.
