[quote=Anonymous]… you stop calling biologically related people cousins? I know a few 3rd and 4th cousins. We don’t holiday together or anything. One I could see being a friend if we lived closer. I had a roommate that said by the time you’re 3rd cousins, you’re not really cousins any more. Made me wonder if people would introduce a third cousin as a cousin bc saying someone is a cousin seems to suggest you share a pair of grandparents or great-grandparents. No need to get into whether and when you can marry a cousin — which BTW you can marry first cousins in many places. It becomes an issue if you descend from too many close cousin marriages. So, would you introduce someone you are related to by 2x-great-grandparents or ones further back as your cousin —not your 3rd cousin — just cousin at a party or other social event other than a family gathering?[/quote]
