I suppose that's possible, though many (including me) would still regard it as incest unless their families merged after they were adults.

I think stepsiblings hooking up is yucky, but I wouldn't consider ti incest, just bizarre.

If they were raised from (young) childhood together, I think it would probably equal emotional incest. In other words, I think we would see the same sort of psychological issues.
Okay, examples: If Marcia & Greg Brady hooked up, it'd probably not have equalled emotional incest, or at least not to the same degree as if Bobby & Cindy Brady had hooked up. Peter & Jan? Sorta on the fence.
(Please, nobody link to Brady Bunch fic.)

Well, a lot of it would depend on how close the stepsiblings were. If they had known each other from childhood but had only seen each other summers and Christmas, it might not be much different from any childhoood playmates hooking up, emotionally speaking. But if they were raised together, that is closer to incest.
It would be very strange either way, and I kind of hope Lost doesn't go there.
