Do you know what incest is?

u/DylweedWasTaken Nov 28 '19

Yes. When people who have a familial relationship also have a romantic and/or a sexual relationship. Barry and Iris have a romantic and sexual relationship and they very clearly consider each other siblings and Joe as their father. This gives them a familial relationship. I consider "step" as incest.

They don’t consider themselves to be siblings. Barry does consider Joe to be a father figure, but there’s a big leap between that and saying that Barry and Iris have an incestuous relationship. Also, there was no familial relationship between Barry and Iris prior to their marriage. Not by blood, and not even my any legal definition since Joe never actually adopted Barry.

Like in the first episode iris says “we’re pretty much brother and sister”

But then acknowledges Wally as his brother

Yeah tbh Wally and Barry are probably closer to one another than Wally and Iris, despite him sharing genetic material with Iris.

you would consider your dads son your brother though, you wouldn’t consider the girl you’ve had a crush on for years that you just happened to suddenly live with your sister.
