Hmmm, yes, I was saying that
because they were raised together, they are highly unlikely to see each other as sexually attracted - that is the effect that the Westermarck theory tries to describe. The effect is seen in multiple species. It isn't a 100% thing but it does put the onus on the author to provide a really good foundation for overriding the effect.
