[Opinions] Re: Cousins....
in reply to a message by Isla
Oh I see. Yes it sounds weird... It must be a hard situation... I would just like to point that marriage between cousins (or even uncles and nieces, like Jews sometimes do) don't creat abnormalities in themselves, but emphasize every characteristic, good or bad, as the generations "go on". Take a family with bad hair and nice eyes, make them intermarry, and some generations later you have a family of people with very bad hair and very nice eyes. That's why I think cousins marriage is only harmful if there is a known hereditary defect in the family. I'm the living proof that, apart from this case, it's no problem lol :)

Ditto. Genetically, cousin-inbreeding isn't a usually a problem. nt  ·  Miranda  ·  5/17/2005, 2:33 PM
