I read somewhere that, typically, people tend to react more violently toward the concept of incest over the concept of other things like necrophilia and bestiality even though its generally the most consensual. Conceivably this is because we're wired to oppose inbreeding due to the genetic problems not being conducive to furthering our line. Of course, we're not all wired the exact same way.

Actually it's probably more to do the memetic social stigmata from tribal times when it was far more lucid and profitable for your tribe to marry your children off to other tribes so they pay your tribe dowries. This explains why female monkeys teach their children sex as a form of social interaction but female humans do not.
