You seem to be saying that there was some golden age when novels depicting stuff mentioned by the thread starter, such as having sex with your non-genetically related brother, was mainstream. But, now, such "is being pushed to the fringe." Do I understand correctly? If so, when was the golden age, and what country or countries are you thinking of?
As for the US, I think the level of tolerance for smutty prurient books is at close to a record high. One bit of evidence for this is how old-fashioned my last sentence sounds.
