I thought it was interesting you don't believe the man coud have molested his daughter either or that he wouldn't talk about it (and that your uncle didn't you). I wonder if you can imagine a man molesting a girl relative at all? That the man in the chat room was doing the "bravado" thing, calling his daughter "names" instead of feeling any sort of concern for her, that would make me angry. Just going by my father, if I'd ever accused him of molesting me, he would have been "puzzled" and hurt, etc. rather than trash me I think. But I can't imagine my father being the "type" to ever even think of molesting me? His character wasn't like that. I have one brother I know would think of it (but never did/would do it).

How about this uncle, what other things do you think about him? What sort of "character" do you recall? Did you do anything out of the cellar, were you "afraid" of him at all and try to stay out of his way or avoid him?
