libidinal investment

An attachment of strong, intense emotional energies to an issue, person, concept, etc., in such a way that one pays special attention to issues surrounding it and one reacts strongly to discussions and changes affecting it. Includes, but is not limited to, sexual and sublimated sexual attachments.

The term is psychoanalytic in origin and is widely used in cultural studies.
Right-wingers often have a strong libidinal investment in the idea of authority, so that they experience threats to authority almost as if they are threatened personally. This may be due to an Oedipal fixation in which their sense of personal identity fuses with that of the father, as threatening authority-figure, so as to enable the repression of castration-threat anxiety.

incest

When somebody has sex with a member of their own family. When in doujinshi or fanfics, when two characters who belong to the same family, do such a forbidden action seen as wrong by many, but consensually because they are in love with each other, it automatically hyperboosts the quality of the doujinshi/fic. In real life, there is a level of controversy regarding incest. People in America can't do it, even in a consensual manner, by law, the British Royal Family has to do it by law, and some places probably don't even give a fuck whether you do it or not, as long as both partners wanted to do it, therefore no one being raped. When a lot of people think incest, they think deformed children and rape. But, birth control + consent of both partners = the right to declare a stereotype that anti-incest laws revolve around, false. Incest = redneck? Not necessarily. Anyone from any walk of life could be practicing incest. If somebody falls in love with a family member, you know sex will most likely be involved, therefore stereotype #2 has been declared false.
If they both are in love with each other, ain't a damn thing wrong with it, is there?

investihater

Someone who is able to find out the truth when being lied to and in turn retaliates with a smarter technique like exposing the liars dirt. Most "investihating" resources are the internet, computer, myspace, cell phones, cell phone bills, passwords, and being nosie.
I found out about my ex-boyfriends infedility when I started going through his computer. It all started on Myspace, soon I was online checking any and all of his accounts that were started by him. It was easy. After I sent out bulletins of him in my bikini bottoms(only) to all of his work associates, I received my "Investihater" badge. Wanna see it?
