I don't think we're using the same definition of stigma.

Stigma is a profound, unfair negative belief or stereotype attached to a person or group, causing shame, social rejection, and discrimination.

I'm having a hard time making any of the stuff you're saying make sense with that definition, and the whole word is inherently social.

The fact is that a lot of people think it's nasty to fuck your brother, and that you should stop fucking him when you realize you're related to him. I see the nuance in this situation, but a lot of people don't, and if they maintain the relationship they will have to deal with those people. It's already hard enough to deal with homophobia without this on top.

I don't understand how you can read that definition and not comprehend my comment. Perhaps you could explain in your own words what the stigma here should be.

U/bus_factor means society’s stigma when they say “social stigma”. They are trying to communicate that society is grossed out by all relationships between family - whether they are blood related or not, whether they know each other as family members or not. Any whiff of relatedness is enough to condemn the relationship even if the reasons don’t really make sense. Society finds it gross.

You’re talking about specifically the “don’t fuck someone you grew up with even if they’re not your blood relative” rule, which is a stigma about our social relationships, a “social stigma”, but not what prev was meaning when they used that term.
