We Shared Something Special: The Moral Discourse of Incest Perpetrators.
Gilgun, Jane F.
Journal of Marriage and the Family, v57 n2 p265-81 May 1995
Analyzed narrative accounts of incest perpetrators (10 men, 1 woman) using the concepts of justice and care. Almost all perpetrators defined incest as love and care and viewed their behavior as considerate and fair, although this care and love were contradicted by adults' refusal to stop when children wanted them to stop.
