Well in the world today, love is all that matters so who are we to judge when it comes to incest? If you want to date your cousin go for it. The only people who would object are hateful fundies.

If they are the same sex, what difference does it make?  The only reason cousins don't marry is because of possible genetic problems in the offspring.

You are almost tolerant, the fact that you would deny opposite sex relatives the joy of marriage shows how hateful you are. The answer is they can go to planned parenthood and get a free abortion if pregnancy occurs. Lousy hateful fundy.

I'd reckon it depends on how determined you are to kill your offspring.

Personally, I have 2 1st cousins that have the same problem I have which is crashing blood sugar count ( I have other cousins that haven't chimed in so no report of the extent of the problem)

Just one thought...

Don't breed with your relatives, if you can avoid it, the point of evolution is to not just get rid of species of animals that won't work out but to (I'm having trouble with the word) cleanse the DNA that you pass on of the defects that have followed your family in the past.

It's eminently possible nadin and I are second cousins eight times removed, or eighth cousins two times removed, or something like that.

I wanted to see if anybody else notices the family resemblence.

IIRC European Jewish tradition sanctioned first cousin and even uncle-niece marriage, the logical product of both being shunned and of viewing yourself as a superior race apart, which was a particular bone of contention in a lot of the States whose domestic relations law was written by Anglo-Saxon Protestants.  Of course this also has a lot to do with why traditional European Jewish populations, including those transplanted to the US, had an abnormally high concentration of genetic diseases.

On the other hand, despite a lot of propaganda based on made-up and/or anecdotal evidence about two families known as the Kallikaks and Jukes in the Appalachians and the dangers of inbreeding, more rigorous scientific study by later generations of sociologist using statistical analysis found that the whole inbreeding thing was pretty much a matter of garbage-in, garbage-out.  They found that while there were some pretty messed-up inbred groups, the founders of them had been pretty messed up in the beginning anyway, and there were also fairly inbred communities that were basically indistinguishable from the regular population.

Artificial insemination,  as with english bulldogs.  Then a C-Section.

This is almost as bad as that thread about the Pedo DUmmie (redundant??) who was wondering how young a girl could be to safely bang legally. Bottom line, when you have to ask if she's legal, you're a Pedo. In this case, if you have to ask how distant a cousin can be before you screw, then you are a pervert already. Ewwwwww.

That's not even close to what paedophilia actually is, but it is true that if you have to ask that you probably have really bad judgment, a poor sense of limits, impulse control problems, and your happy ass is going to end up in prison sooner or later.

I've actually heard this conversation in real life.  I used to live in Southern Maryland.  I worked in Saint Mary's County, which is the southernmost in Maryland, and somewhat geographically isolated with no routes really going through there.  At some point, three families settled in the area and intermarried, and continued to intermarry, on and on ad nauseum, for at least six generations.  They have a very good special disabilities program in their school system because the inbreeding has resulted in a lot genetic problems as well as generally being pretty low in intelligence.  They were told to stop, but they keep on doing it, hence the term Southern Maryland Inbred or SMIB for short.  Anyway....There I was...

Southern Maryland Chick 1 (SMC1) - A woman in her mid-twenties  who constantly complains about the lack of anyone to date.
Southern Maryland Chick 2 (SMC2) - Also, in her mid-twenties, one kid, lives with mom, kid's dad is one of her cousins but he pretty much only shows up to get laid.

SMC1: (to SMC2 over the cubicle wall) Hey, you'll never guess I met somebody this weekend!
SMC2: Really?  Where did you meet him!
SMC1: We had a family reunion, and I met him there!
SMC2: Really? Tell me all about it!
SMC1: Well, he looks just like me! (I would later learn that this is, in fact, true.  He looked like a male version of her.)
SMC2: What is his name?
SMC1: (I don't remember his name)
SMC2: Oh, Well where does he live?
SMC1: He lives with his ma, just west if Leonardtown. (About ten miles, give or take from her and her mom.)
SMC2: Really, are ya'll planning to go on a date?
SMC1: I don't know, how close can cousins be and still be okay.
SMC2: As long as he isn't your first, it should be okay.
SMC1 and 2: Giggles.
Me:  How about not related?
SMC2: What? What do you mean?
Me:  I mean go fill up your car, drive away from here till you only have 1/4 tank of gas left and try to meet some people you aren't related to? (Completely unnecessary as PAX has expanded, but all of those people are outsiders to the SMIBs.)
Me:  Furthermore, genetecists have tested you and told you to stop inbreeding.
SMC1:  Well this is our culture.
SMC2:  The damage is already done, why does it matter now?
Me:  *facepalm*

One of many enlightening moments I had with those two near me.

Oh my goodness.

When I was researching genealogy, families did live near each other.  They also had a lot of kids.  One way to trace them was through the English naming pattern. It went something like this;

1st son was named after the paternal grandfather. 2nd son the maternal grandfather, 3 son the oldest paternal uncle and so on.  A lot of times it wasn't until the 7th son was born, before he was named after his father.  The girls were named in the opposite manner.  1st daughter after the maternal grandmother and so on.

Middle names were sometimes the mothers maiden surname or after her brothers etc.  It was a way in which to keep track of who was in your immediate family.  If your searching for a John Smith in Any county, there is a very good chance they all belong to the same line.

I also remember something interesting, was a lot of couples did move across states, so that their kids wouldn't wind up marrying a cousin.

^Holiday Road !

Ask the out law Mormon's.

Couple years ago when one of their communes were raided and a couple hundred kids taken into protective custody, it was found that the girl's mothers  had been married off to their uncles and even grandfathers.

As the parents of the children refused to cooperate into who was who and may not have really know themselves due to convoluted family history and being wife NO. 18 of one man------  What a mess.

I do not know if DNA was taken from the kids and parents but if so the poor lab techs must have gone bonkers trying to trace any line of family.

Then in MY family in the 1800's when a man with children lost his wife, he often married his wife's sister.    Much like in the old Testament a man was told that when his brother died, he was to marry his widow and care for her and children.

Tracking family from back then becomes difficult from there on.  Whose mother was whom, ETC.

As a teenager I palled about with 2 of my 3'rd cousins, we all had the same G-grand father and same last name.   My fathers parents were aghast, thinking the worse.  But they calmed down when I got a boyfriend with no family ties.

Result is that when my cousin dies the family name is lost after generations, had I married either one and bore male children the family line would go  on for another 4 generations.
