The trouble is as well is we get a similar problem with Flower.

Flower has this thing wherein people struggle it seems to accept her canon "female" status. IT gets to the point it hurts Flower, as people want to constantly re-write her and it begins to make that person look like they can't accept a character as they are unless they rewrite it to their needs. I've seen so many arguments such as "its headcanon" as a defence, but thats weak because headcanon often replaces canon for that person.

Its similar because this is whats happening in a lot of romances, nothing else matters except what a person wants.

And this comic sums up reality for romances. There is more to the comic as there i the run-up to the last 3 pages missing, but its just pages of her fangirling over Vader. And the obsession is so great that it messes that Vader by the time he becomes Vader is a monster. He doesn't care. The only person he ever shows signs of emotion to is Luke his son, but thats him trying to corrupt his son to be more like him and in the end Lukegot Vader to show he is more like himself instead. And only Luke could have done that because Vader never let anyone get close enough to be in the picture except for the Emperor, as Vader was loyal to the Dark Side.

When headcanon gets to points this bad, nothing matters to the person, those who can't not see Miku x Luka are no better then those who can't see Flower as a female and all are unable to accept that canon is what it is.

But often more then nothing, there is a reason that character is who they are. Families who are close as you've example do so for protection, and because it holds the family together. A family that isn't close is doomed to split apart. An idealised family such as those you exampled is held together by a level of respect for each other and understanding, its different to romance, which is only going to happen between the parents, and the kids with outsiders.

Incest in itself is a taboo and shunned because in humans... Incest can create children... Who have SERIOUS health problems. You can look up the Colt family of Australia and read some of the defects that kids had and you can see why its shunned. This is why society focuses on pushing kids to have relationships outside of their close families (siblings, half-siblings, aunties, uncles, grandparents and up to 2nd cousins in some cultures, but not step or adoptive kids though since their family they often get included). If the DNA of two individuals is more then 45% the same as a human beings chosen mate upon conception, it comes with a high risk. And I hate to say it, but to normalise the threat it presents like fanfiction tries to do, makes people ignorant of this problem. It means kids get born with problems caused by their selfish parents, as anyone who purposes brings a kid into the world knowing this is being selfish in my opinion as they knew the risks but did it anyway and still did it. We should be no more normalising incest then we should be normalising child paedophilia in fiction.
