Being a survivor of covert i
ncest, I have had great difficulty finding a place on the net where I can connect with others who have gone through similar experiences. Although I have been to numerous websites dedicated to sexual abuse, they tend to cater to those who have experienced r
ape or other forms of overt sexual abuse.
Recently, when I went to Google and did a search on covert i
ncest, I was alarmed to find sites where parents claimed it was nonsense, comparing it to rebirthing and false memory syndrome. There was even one who envisioned a day when people would shake their heads in disgust at covert i
ncest as we do when we read about the Salem Witch Trials today.
Realizing that survivors of covert i
ncest needed a place of their own, I decided to create this site. I would like this to be a safe and secure environment where we can share our personal experiences, as well as discuss how covert i
ncest is often portrayed as something favorable in literature, Hollywood, and the media.
