It is not only ethical, it is morally right. Tell those people in your area who support it to not to stop at dating their cousins, but let them go ahead and marry their uncles, aunts, fathers-in-law, mothers-in-law, grandpas and grandmas. Oh and while at that, they shouldn't forget to add their nieces and nephews to the list... Awon irankiran ![]() 7 Likes |

Cousin simply means they are related in some way, either close or distant which automatically makes the person your brother/sister. Asides from that your parents could adopt a child and you guys grow to love each other, it will still be awkward because such person is considered family. I guess what I'm saying is that it's wrong not because there is a law against it directly but like you said "ethically" 1 Like |

first of all who can be regarded as one's cousin?? From the concise English Dictionary: It is defined as a child of one's Aunt or uncle. So based on that definition i suppose that answers the question. #highly_unethical |

I have friends from Chad who are married to their first cousins and at first I was shocked and thought it was inbreeding but its actually not. Both the bible and Quaran supports it! |

Leviticus 18:6–17 6 None of you shall approach any blood relative of his to uncover unclothedness; I am the Lord. 7 You shall not uncover the unclothedness of your father, that is, the unclothedness of your mother. She is your mother; you are not to uncover her unclothedness. 8 You shall not uncover the unclothedness of your father’s wife; it is your father’s unclothedness. 9 The unclothedness of your sister, either your father’s daughter or your mother’s daughter, whether born at home or born outside, their unclothedness you shall not uncover. 10 The unclothedness of your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter, their unclothedness you shall not uncover; for their unclothedness is yours. 11 The unclothedness of your father’s wife’s daughter, born to your father, she is your sister, you shall not uncover her unclothedness. 12 You shall not uncover the unclothedness of your father’s sister; she is your father’s blood relative. 13 You shall not uncover the unclothedness of your mother’s sister, for she is your mother’s blood relative. 14 You shall not uncover the unclothedness of your father’s brother; you shall not approach his wife, she is your aunt. 15 You shall not uncover the unclothedness of your daughter-in-law; she is your son’s wife, you shall not uncover her unclothedness. 16 You shall not uncover the unclothedness of your brother’s wife; it is your brother’s unclothedness. 17 You shall not uncover the unclothedness of a woman and of her daughter, nor shall you take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her unclothedness; they are blood relatives. It is lewdness. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Youngzedd: Inbreeding produces some physical defects. Something is wrong somewhere, either with the Noah story or that there are some medicines that can remove the effects of inbreeding. |

The tribe I come from, you cannot have sexual relationship with your cousin let alone marry her, its a sin against Ana/Ani (soil), even your relations, so long as there is someone alive that knows and can explain the blood ties between you and a very distant relation, sexual relationship and marriage is forbidden 1 Like |

can't think of anything to comment so I'm just going to post a pancake recipe. 1 1/2 cups milk 1 egg 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 cups all-purpose flour 1/4 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda 1/3 cup caster sugar 25g butter, melted Whisk milk, egg and vanilla together in a jug. Sift flour and bicarbonate of soda into a bowl. Stir in sugar. Make a well in centre. Add milk mixture. Whisk until just combined. Step 2 Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Brush pan with butter. Using 1/4 cup mixture per pancake, cook 2 pancakes for 3 to 4 minutes or until bubbles appear on surface. Turn and cook for 3 minutes or until cooked through. Transfer to a plate. Cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with remaining mixture, brushing pan with butter between batches. Serve. 4 Likes |

donroxy:It is a serious taboo in my place, even far relatives are not allowed to marry each other. My mother hav a way of digging relationship that u'll end up thinking if u sure gonna marry anyone from your village who is not your relative. They was this girl i was admiring, my mum discovered our body movement, the next thing for her was to start quoting how we related-a distant one, that was how i ended up giving up on that girl, today we see ourselves as brother and sister. 2 Likes |
