A Canadian daughter who had sex with her dad says she was shocked and horrified by her incestuous urges — but she is not alone.  Vancouver author Natasha Rose Chenier detailed her sexual relationship with her father on Jezebel. The 24-year-old explained that she experienced genetic sexual attraction and was a victim to her father’s abuse.  It’s not clear how many people experience GSA since the topic is so taboo. Some experts believe up to 50% of relatives who meet for the first time as adults experience sexual attraction — but that figure is heavily disputed.  Chenier met her biological father when she was 19 years old. He left Chenier’s mother before she was born and Chenier looked him up after her mom endured a decade-long abusive relationship.  “I sought him out because I was lonely and angry at her,” she wrote. “I wanted to find a parent who would love me unconditionally, who would protect me. The irony of what happened does not escape me.”  Chenier flew to Jamaica to meet her dad. They hit it off right away.  “I was intoxicated by our likeness, which I never shared with my mother, or with any siblings (I am an only child). All of a sudden I had company. It was that simple. I had a dream parent, and I was over the moon," she wrote.  Chenier went back home ecstatic. The two talked on the phone frequently until her next visit. On that trip, they shared a bed, she said. In retrospect, it seemed inappropriate, but nothing seemed odd at the time, she explained.  “But I came from a kiss-on-the-lips relationship with both my mother and grandmother, and growing up, it was normal for us to cuddle and be affectionate together,” she wrote.  That’s when started feeling sexually attracted to him, she said. She was horrified and didn’t tell anyone, hoping the urges would go away.  “The sexual feelings I had for my father felt like a dark spell that had been cast over me," she wrote. “It was like those nightmares in which you scream and no one hears you: you are powerless and you know it.”  On her third and final trip to Jamaica, Chenier discovered her dad was attracted to her, too. They had oral sex several times and her father confessed that he wanted to sleep with her from the moment they first met.  The visit ended, but her anxiety and dread only grew after she left the island.  “I had daily panic attacks and felt like a criminal of the most terrible kind for years,” she wrote.  Chenier said she finally stopped blaming herself after her therapist explained her genetic sexual attraction was not her fault. In a parent-child relationship, the parent must set the boundaries: By letting those limitations slip, her father was a sexual abuser, Chenier explained.  “Genetic sexual attraction is normal, and very real,” Chenier wrote. “I want to say what I have finally been able to understand myself: that my attraction, and what it led to, was not my fault.”
