The difference between this case and your garden variety incest case is that mom had to go find the kid she gave up for adoption a decade ago.

I wish the article said if he were 13, 19, or just where in between.

What was she thinking?

Mother Accused of Raping Son

Gave Him Up For Adoption 10 Years Ago

It's a story that began with a reunion -- a mom hitting the internet to find the son she put up for adoption. Then it's alleged reunion turned into abomination.

Police say the 35-year-old woman started having sex with her now-teenage son. And it's not clear if the young man even knew who she really was.

That's one of those crimes only a deranged white woman could commit

not sure of the title but there is a book or study (not sure when it was done - 1990's?) about how quite a few Japanese mothers have sex with their teenage sons to keep their minds on their university entrance exams. the theory is that if they let their teenage sons have sex with them, they'll be more focused on the books, stay away from the girls, and get into a top university.

another surprising finding is that a lot of the Dads are aware of what the mother and son are doing.

anyone ever come across this study / book?

^ I've heard that some share their parents' bed until teen age, and vaguely recall something like what you said.

I heard about that study too and I can assure you that if my mom slept with me in high school I surely would be frightened of women and probably wouldn't be able to study either.

Do a search for genetic sexual attraction and then come back and judge this woman.

She's far from the only one who's done this. And it's not just mother/ young son either. It's mother/adult son father/adult daughter brother/ sister and more besides.

There's often a latent powerful sexual attraction between those who are closely related. Could be linked to people wanting to see a lot of themselves in a mate. Of course in most people, this attraction is disabled when you grow up in proximity by something called the Westermark effect.

Of course should you meet a close relative for the first time as an adult, you would have a pretty good chance of feeling a strong sexual urge regardless of what you say on this forum. Not everyone acts on those urges but they are a lot more common than people would like to believe.

I'd bet that if you were to tell this mother to have sex with a child she raised she'd be repulsed. I'd also be willing to bet that she never set out to find this boy for the purpose of sex. It's far more likely that she was overwhelmed by unexpected strong sexual feelings.
