Summary: psychological aspects need addressing

So far I've read only genetic considerations of incest.  How about humanizing 
the discussion by looking at the psychological impact on the parties involved.

Specifically, in the case of father/daughter incest, the effect of mating with
her father can be profoundingly devastating to the daughter.  I'm not an 
authority by any means.  Let's hear from some of the mental health 
professionals.
