I received a very interesting private message on another messageboard I frequent from a poster who asked me if I had heard about John and his mother having an incestual relationship. This poster heard from their source(s) that it was actually his mother who was the pursuer of the relationship, not the young John. I told the poster that this was all news to me, and they asked if I would present the question to you all here:
With so many insiders here, is anyone at liberty to confirm if this is true or just bs? I can't speak for everyone, but I know it doesn't change my opinion of the man. He was a genius with a great talent and was able to share much of it, as well as his message of LOVE to the whole world.

I can't even say that 'a little birdie told me' or that 'a fly on the wall' telepathed any data. So... Looking briefly at his bio: www.biography.com/articles/John-Lennon-9379045"Pop star, composer, songwriter, and recording artist. John Winston Lennon was born October 9, 1940, in Liverpool, Merseyside, NW England, UK, during a German air raid in World War II.
When he was four years old, Lennon's parents separated and he ended up living with his Aunt Mimi. John's father was a merchant seaman. He was not present at his son's birth and did not see a lot of his son when he was small.
Lennon's mother, Julia, remarried, but visited John and Mimi regularly. She taught John how to play the banjo and the piano and purchased his first guitar. John was devastated when Julia was fatally struck by a car driven by an off-duty police officer in July 1958. Her death was one of the most traumatic events in his life."[/color] He would have been 17 at the time, so ... i guess that such a thing might be possible, but I'm in no position to present any evidence for it.

The (excellent) film Nowhere Boy hinted at such a thing, and it wouldn't surprise me. Julia obviously had a lot of mental problems and trouble with boundaries, and there is a phenomenon known as "GSA" - genetic sexual attraction. When close genetic relatives are separated for long periods and then reuinted, they experience very strong feelings which can express themselves in a disordered way as sexual attraction. This happens more than one might expect when adult children are reuinted with biological parents who gave them up for adoption.
I would doubt that the relationship between John and his mother ever went "all the way", as it were, but being inappropriately flirtatious and tactile in a sexual way... It's very possible.

With so many "insiders here" ? I didn't hear it through the grapevine, nor little birdies or even a fly on the wall... I can't say it came through telepathy, sympathy, empathy or simply pathetic.... Not from brainwaves, microwaves, ocean waves...nor telegraph, nor photograph, not even a phonograph...or paragraph... but from Indian Smoke Signals....we have been infiltrated with Indian Smoke Signals... But...I won't tell you if they were Native American Indians, or..the ones who lived in India...when the Beatles were there, and they sat around the Maharishi and they smoked, and they smoked, and they smoked until the smoke rose....and floated into the atmosphere and through the winds...carried the voices of one crying in the wilderness, saying, "Paul was replaced, Paul was replaced".....his name was William....he lived in the mountains, on a farm, by the waters, and the little birdies....flew around him and fed him manna and his name became Sir Faul...... Sorry it didn't come from anyone "close" to the sources like old lovers, friends or relatives...former bandmates, former gardeners, dentists, barbers, firemen, or magicians.... Indian Smoke signals.... Again, what was the subject? Oh, if John had any Oedipus complex with his mummy.....This is the first I've ever even heard the idea suggested and I've been in alot of forums on the Beatles, or Paul is dead, replaced...
