It is no more incest than Barry Allen and Iris West in The Flash.

In fact, less so since Barry and Iris never had any emotional distancing as children. They weren't socially distant by not even going shopping together or church (Deb was dragged by mom but Dex wasn't forced to go, not allowed on the hunting trips, etc). There was no resentment or "you're not my brother" mentality growing up in WestAllen. and both are emotionally and mentally stable individuals (unlike Dexter and Debra). And YES, Barry was adopted not just fostered. If he was just Fostered he legally would not have stayed in the same household for 10 years as foster homes have grouping stipulations, rarely hold only one child from the system and when aging out they go to a transition home. Also the DVD box set states that Joe is his adopted father.
