The incest narrative is a stereotypical narrative (or story) which has been created by certain feminists to describe--from their point of view--(usually) father (or sometimes stepfather)/daughter sexual relationships.
The basics of the narrative are (note: usually these are false assumptions):
- the father/stepfather coerces the daughter into having sex with him.
- and the daughter:
- is always unwilling
- is always afraid
- is always cowed into silence by threats
- is always filled with feelings of guilt and shame
- always blames herself for the relationship
- is never believed if she "tells" anyone
- is horrifically damaged by the experience
- must relive the experience in "therapy" in order to "heal"
The incest narrative, along with the rape narrative, and the child abuse narrative, are paradigms created by certain groups interested in demonizing adult-child sexual activity and (alleged) paternalistic attitudes towards incest in society.
The "rape narrative," "incest narrative," and the "child abuse narrative" are rarely rationally discussed in public, due to any attempts to do so being drowned out by the histrionics of those opposed to rational thinking about incest and adult-child sexual activity. These topics are occasionally addressed in academic publications, but these publications are not easily available to the "unwashed masses".
