How central is taboo to sex? As in, do taboos help the sexual act fulfil it's larger purpose? If that purpose is pair-bonding then creating two partners in crime, at odds with the tribe, seems a good way to do it

i basically agree with you, but i don't think "at odds" with the tribe is the right construction. taboo violation inside the relationship creates a sacred space, and there's an appearance of conflict with the tribe but it's kind of fake

i don't know if i can express it properly but the private pairbond context has as part of its purpose contributing to the tribe better, and the pairbond displays respect for the tribe by keeping their transgressions private

Yeah, it's not 'against'. More a sanctioned private transgressive. This framing is making me more conservative about porn. Runaway taboo chasing without connection could cause problems
