It is not due to "genetic" reasons since it has was forbidden in most places much before people even knew what "genes" were. I also doubt they could see a pattern between some birth defects and siblins relations.


Suppose there was a population with no taboo against incest. Suppose also there was a gene in a tiny proportion of the population for aversion to incest. The gene would be favoured by natural selection and spread throughout the population because those who possessed it would on average have more healthy offspring.

So I would argue (especially as the incest taboo is universal) that it is genetic reasons. No concious decision making required, just normal evolutionary processes.

Southern belle states of the US, European countries and around  the world. We all know what inbreeding in Kentucky, Utah, Idaho, Iowa, etc leads to. Well they are all believe in Incest is best. Josef Fritzl the incestuous murdering raping pedophile who had kids to his own daughter and kept her and the kids locked away for 30 years. Tom Green in  Utah had 60 odd kids to 7 girls from the same family, he raped and molested them and fathered kids.

Incest and child molestation there are direct links. 

The Egyptian pharaohs, European monarchy were all incestuous families, who kept power and wealth in the family. Sever birth defects from having children with brothers and sisters, cousins and parent with children. Keeping it in the family.


That they were, but they also brought in new blood from outside of their families from other regions and kingdoms.

You can't forget that they also mated with aliens.  

I saw it on TV, so it must be true.

I dont think they mated with aliens, but I could say its plausible that they were assisted by them in some ways.
