[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom is into genealogy and once said you can marry third cousins which is why they’re called kissing cousins. I guess third is the point where there’s no genetic risks? Not sure, my mom isn’t the most reliable narrator out there. [/quote] Op here — I also do family history and have volunteered to help at different family history centers. You can marry your first cousins which is skeevy to many of modern day people in the US. But it wasn’t so rare as I have discovered. Almost everyone I’ve helped has so-called kissing cousins. The issue that concerns civil and church authorities is if there is too many near cousin marriages. If your parents were first cousins and one of theirs were first or second cousins, then there is more concern. But marrying a first cousin is not so concerning from a science perspective. Socially especially now it is taboo. [/quote]
