Is it true that people raised closely together in early childhood tend to develop little sexual attraction to each other, a pattern called the Westermarck effect?
Yes. A reference article states the Westermarck effect and cites kibbutz, Shim-pua and cousin-marriage evidence that people raised together in early childhood tend not to be sexually attracted to one another; a separate review likewise reports that genetically unrelated children raised together from birth are unlikely to develop sexual relationships.
