The taboo of desire between siblings in BDSM and the case of the biblical Joseph.

The following posts continue the previous ones, which concern a younger brother who is sexually exploited by his older brother.

This is one of the taboos of the heteronormative world that homosexuals need not respect: sexual desire between brothers.

This is especially true when such desire involves BDSM—since humiliating, abusing, masturbating, performing oral sex on, or fucking one’s own brother happens far more frequently than our moralistic, "traditional" families might imagine.

Many brothers experience their sexual initiation at the hands, in the mouths, or within the orifices of their own siblings.

This phenomenon is ancient; the Bible itself contains the story of Joseph (Genesis 37), who was sold into slavery by his brothers. He is the spoiled youngest son, the favorite of his father,  Jacob (did his father also have a sexual interest in him? Was Joseph the most virile and heterosexual of the sons, or was it the exact opposite?).

His father sends him to find his brothers, who are tending flocks in a remote area. His eleven envious brothers—who loathe him—strip off his clothes and decide to kill him. 

The Bible doesn’t mention it, but throughout history, shepherds in various parts of the world have been known to engage in sexual acts with their sheep—and with one another. Does anyone truly believe these brothers simply decided to kill the youngest, whom they despised?

I truly believe that they raped him—violently—and then, shaken by what had happened, feeling both guilt and fear of the consequences, they threw him into a hole—naked and covered in semen—while they took time to think and discuss what to do next, including whether they would have to kill him to prevent him from telling their father what had been done.

Then, when a caravan passes by, they decide to sell the young man into slavery.

Doesn’t my version make more sense? Doesn’t it seem more realistic, truthful, and consistent with human nature?

Here are some images illustrating this biblical passage; they often depict Joseph as younger than he actually would have been—he was likely around 17 or 18 years old when he was sold. In my youth, I often masturbated while fantasizing about being him.

I worked with Grok on some of the images to make them appear more realistic and consistent with what likely transpired between these siblings. 

Did they turn out better? More faithful and interesting—wouldn't you agree?
