Being very close to my little sister, I am really creeped out by any incest pairings >.< I wanted to read this to understand why people like to make two brothers sex each other, when the love they already have is so pure (not quite the right word, but close enough). It's not that I think sex is dirty or bad, it just complicates things- and I love relationships where it doesn't have to be a problem (like RinxSesshomaru). It transcends those that are initiated by lust and becomes something really beautiful. I still don't understand why Elricest is so popular... I guess I never will. But you made some very good points in your essay, and I agree with you on a lot of things (like why the brothers are so close to begin with). Just not the sex part >.>;;;
