When it comes to incest it makes good sense not to mix blood with sex. I have a friend who's parents were 1st cousins and he is a hemophiliac. The reason is that any latent genes for disorders such at that are more commonly able to manifest when the parents are close on the genetic map.
Personally I wouldn't engage in it because I know my family and know the problems that would come of it. Not saying the criticism but I don't want to be that open with my family even though I think my sister-in-law is hot and I know she's bi too.
As far as sluts - I think that originates from back when women did not work outside the home. They were more dependant on their husbands for their livlihood. A woman needed a man who would stand by her when she got pregnant. A man could have sex without living with the consequences as much. I'm glad for the laws that ask a man to take equal responsibility for the children that that help make. Also Birth Control was not as convenient or readily available in past times. I think that it is a stigma that has not adjusted with time.
