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.

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 ???


(typing that made my skin crawl, BTW)


Undecided

My guess is that he's commoner than we think and no, provided he's not lying to the woman about his affection for her, I can't condemn him for what's going on in his mind.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
