Introduction
Much of the world maintains an active and ever growing curiosity concerning the exploits of the thrill-seeking body of people succinctly termed "The Jet Set".
Activities concerning "The Jet Set" grace the covers of news and movie tabloids around the globe, while numerous books, both fiction and non-fiction, and scores of motion pictures are also devoted to them.
One of the likely reasons why so much concern revolves around them is that they are the doers of society, having the opportunity to do conceivably anything that strikes their fancy, while most people, caught in the restrictive vortex of their own lives, only dream of doing such wide and varied things.
"I've probably done all that there is to be done at least twice," a sun-tanned young man who looks considerably younger than his thirty-eight years confided to me poolside at one of the world's plushest resorts. "People are concerned about what I do and I've been written up many times. Why? Because I'm an experimenter. I'm not afraid to wear things, do things, that convention-ridden elements of society would never think of doing. That is, until they see somebody like me doing these things first. Then things change swiftly and dramatically. It makes me laugh the way I start out as the weirdo non-conformist, only to have my skeptics eventually fall into line."
One of the areas in which "The Jet Set" has blazed its most consequential trails is that of sex, in which they have followed the kind of "tell and do it like it is" pattern that the afore mentioned young man alluded to with me.
While in the midst of experimenting with sex, they very often are disposed toward trying what most of society would consider verboten. Extensive wife swapping, for instance, is one area of pleasure they have popularized, to the extent that now many other people who would never have given thought to such activities, much less to participate in them, have ultimately fallen into line.
A relatively new development occurring among many in "The Jet Set" is the act of incestuous love. Not that incest is anything new to the world, for it isn't. But the manner in which "The Jet Set" is practicing it creates fresh dimensions.
Whereas incest traditionally is something kept very much in secret amongst the participants, such is not the case with ever expanding numbers of "The Jet Set", who regard secretiveness as something cowardly.
"If I want to make love to somebody, whether it's somebody I'm related to or somebody of my own sex or somebody of the opposite sex, I'm gonna be proud of it," a winsome, oft-married woman in her middle thirties related to me. "If certain levels of society are just too damned prudish to understand my feelings then that's just too bad. I do what I want to do, I answer to my feelings, I remain creatively alive, and if somebody doesn't like certain things I do then that's just tough, because I truly couldn't care less."
The main point observable in the woman's remark is that she existed totally apart from guilt, which is the foremost trademark of "The Jet Set", who consider themselves leaders rather than followers.
In the five ensuing documented case histories we will explore the colorful people of "The Jet Set" engaged in incestuous romance. Through these provocative interview sessions the reader will gain greater insight into the lives of these colorful, never dull people.
The cases were selected from a lengthy backlog of interviews with scores of people. They were selected for their uniqueness and the educational impact their stories are designed to have upon the reader searching out answers.
