Marrying Cousins


Romo

Recommended Posts

I figure we've been talking about war, religion and other things that can get people all riled up. So i figure why not a thread on love. Not just love.... incestuous love. It seems according to researchers that marrying first and second cousins isnt as bad for you as they thought. I guess we need to find another reason to explain why the British Royal family is so messed up.<br /><br />So guys how many are married to cousins or would marry cousins? lol<br /> <br /><a href="http://www.cnn.com/2002/HEALTH/04/04/marrying.cousins.ap/index.html" target="_blank">http://www.cnn.com/2002/HEALTH/04/04/marrying.cousins.ap/index.html</a>

Blech. Talk about throwing morality in the toilet...How about we all go have sex with our grandfather's corpses and take body shots off his maggot infested torso? Researchers have discovered that this practice can actually be beneficial! Somebody smack me, please.<br /><br />I read an article in the Washington Post Magazine about a lesbian couple who also happen to be deaf. So they decide to have a kid and get a deaf donor so they'll have a deaf kid.<br /><br />Like I said, what happened to tradition and morality?

Choosing a deaf child...thats wierd. <br />Why would you do that? I thought parents want their kids to have every opportunity at life. sadly deaf people do miss out on things. so why start your kid off with a disadvantage.

While taboos on cousin marriage in the West are long-established, looking back into our species' long history, it's not all that uncommon a phenomenon. During an anthropology class I took at college, we learned that the institution of, if memory serves, second cousin marriage is the norm in extant hunter-gatherer collectives, such as the !Kung in Africa. Anthropologists posit that thousands of years ago, back when most of humanity existed in the same kind of culturally and geographically atomized collectives, second cousin marriage was the dominant mode of marital coupling.

glenn I also took a couple of anthropology courses and remember stuff about cousins marrying being common in other culture. realistically it makes sense considering if you live in a remote society the odds of you marrying someone that has no blood relation to you is pretty small.

Aw geez. I read Riggo's comment with Orange's comment still in mind and next thing you know, I've got one quote having to do with Kefka's grandfather's body which happens to be a cousins.... <img border="0" alt="[puke]" title="" src="graemlins/pukeface.gif" /><br /> <br /> <small>[ April 05, 2002, 11:23 AM: Message edited by: Park City Skins ]</small>

Somewhere, Kefka must be lurking and looking down on us with ants in his pants....or perhaps looking up to us ?<br /><br /> <img border="0" alt="[puke]" title="" src="graemlins/pukeface.gif" /> <------ Just ask that guy <img border="0" alt="[laugh]" title="" src="graemlins/laugh.gif" />

No worries, Chief. In fact, I'm glad you chimed in here. It gives me the opportunity to do this...

If that previous pic freaked the ol' Kefster out, this one (of the lovely and talented Aria Giovanni) will likely give him a heart attack. :)
