Talk:Candy Boy

Incest category
This is a series about the romantic relationship between two sisters, but the "Incest in fiction" category keeps being removed based on the fact there is no explicit sex in the series. But Angel Sanctuary, Koi Kaze, and Boku wa Imōto ni Koi o Suru are series that don't have explicit sex, and they all have the "Incest in fiction" category. If Candy Boy shouldn't have that category, shouldn't it be removed from those examples as well? MayumiTsuji (talk) 17:38, 12 September 2008 (UTC)MayumiTsuji


 * Look, incest means "sexual activity between closely related persons". We can't change the meaning of a word, can we? Of course not; that would be just POV and OR. So I'm removing the cat just because there's no actual incest in it. Although, I do believe the cat would also be appropriate for stories about characters dealing with (incestuous) sexual desires and how society sees such feelings (after all the taboo factor is also part of the meaning). In such series incest would be a main theme, even if there's no actual incest. But there's nothing like that in Candy Boy: there's no incest, nor does this series deal with any of its social and psychological consequences.


 * About those other series... I wouldn't know, as I haven't watched any of them. Kazu-kun (talk) 04:09, 16 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Kazu-kun, just because the word incest squicks you, it does not make the relationship in this anime any less incestious. Chill.77.83.197.99 (talk) 16:24, 16 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Things don't work like that here; this is an encyclopedia. There are policies and guidelines we have to follow, so we can't twist the meaning of a word to make it more convenient for us. Sorry if that bothers you, but that's the way it is. Kazu-kun (talk) 04:09, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Kanade does mention they "did it" while in elementary school. Though they have not since then, they both still have a very close relationship and harbor the same feelings.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.246.8.70 (talk) 03:31, 19 February 2009 (UTC)


 * When Kanade says they did it while in elementary school, she's talking about using the same umbrella with Yuki. Kazu-kun (talk) 14:09, 19 February 2009 (UTC)


 * They apparently also kissed when they were kids, which is not that out of the ordinary between affectionate sisters and definitely does not qualify as incest. I think their relationship most resembles a generic romantic friendship between girls, which is a common theme in Japanese media. So no, despite all the subtext I don't think the "incest' tag applies here.Motormind (talk) 14:23, 7 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, when two sisters have a generic romantic friendship between girls in the real world, out of Wiki and its strict guidelines, the rest of planet Earth would describe it "almost incestuous". Now, I don't give a fig if what's hinted throughout the series, for exammple when Shi implies that what's between her elder sisters goes beyond sisterly love, is or isn't enough to be classified under the category "Incest in fiction". But, could someone please be so kind to clearly state the information that the two sisters share such kind of love in a less criptic way?
 * I would do it but, what the heck, I'm an italian out of italy (not from NJ) and I am supposed not to be able to write english at all... Woongah (talk) 11:00, 10 November 2009 (UTC)


 * The actual definition of Incest goes beyond just sexual relations. "in⋅cest  /ˈɪnsɛst/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [in-sest]  Show IPA  –noun 1. sexual intercourse between closely related persons.  2. the crime of sexual intercourse, cohabitation, or marriage between persons within the degrees of consanguinity or affinity wherein marriage is legally forbidden. "


 * Cohabitation, as defined by Wikipedia it's self is "Cohabitation is when people live together in an emotionally and/or sexually intimate relationship." It really depends on where you are getting your definition from, though, and how literally you want to take the definition. Under the above definition, the relationship could be consider incest as they do cohabitate and are emotionally involved with each other. 68.92.113.175 (talk) 03:30, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
