    When Incest Is Best: Kissing Cousins Have More Kin

    "...It is not quite incest. And though it will increase your chances of birthing a healthy baby, it is a bit unorthodox, to say the least. Still, scientists at Icelandic biotechnology company deCODE genetics say that when third and fourth cousins procreate, they generally have scads of kids and grandkids (relative to everyone else)."




    Count my family out! They obviously haven't seen my 3rd & 4th cousins...

    third cousin is having a common great great grandfather and great great grandmother. That's almost not related.

    I don't see incest laws changing, though, anytime soon. It's just too ewwwww.

    And this is supposed to be a good thing? Why is having a million kids a good thing?

    I don't care to be related to ANYONE in my family, let alone procreate with them.

    WOW! I guess they want to rule out! That forms of Austism are because of incest. Not to mention other forms of mental illness.

    ^ the chances that you're both carrying the mutant allele once you get to 3rd and 4th cousin are the same as with a stranger

    My cousin was SO HOT, but I never could even date her because we were cousins.

    Years later I figured out that my great-grandparents and her great-great grandparents were the same people. We could've got married with no problems.

    But in Minnesota, a relative, no matter how distantly related, is still a cousin and thus off limits.

    I don't think it's right just to want to be with someone because they are really hot. Just another example of guys always thinking with the wrong head. There's plenty of hot women out there, why go with one from your family? If the only thing keeping somebody from being with their cousin is the law and not their conscience, then something is seriously wrong with their head.

    Like our overpopulation and diminishing resources in this world aren't problematic enough.. now people think cousins are good together when they can have more kids. I honestly hope no children are brought into a situation like that.

    It says third or fourth cousins "on average would be expected to have inherited 0.8 percent to 0.2 percent of their genes from a common ancestor". That's a pretty small amount. Further, chances are you would not even recognize even a second cousin, let alone a third or fourth. Or even have heard they exist. It's only 2000 generations since humans emerged from Africa's Rift Valley; and that's everyone.

    Scientists say that everyone with blue eyes had the same set of parents many generations ago -http://www.scienceblog.com/cms/all-blue-eyed-humans-have-common-ancestor-15361.html. My point is how many generatons of separation are needed for genetic diversity, and a low level of inherited weaknesses - apparently not that many.

    Of course they procreate more. They're more likely to come from that kind of community, I would imagine. I don't know any well-educated professionals - the type most likely to limit family size - willing to marry cousins, but I know a lot of PWT cousin-marrying types who can't be bothered with birth control and who'll breed until they can't anymore. That doesn't necessarily mean that overpopulation (especially among the vaguely incestuous) is a good thing.

    This is all a bit eww for me.

    It's funny though that some places still see this as being acceptable though, such as the Middle East.

    If this study would have occured in the US, where I know something about generations, I would have said that 1800-19x0 in the US was a period of huge families, so no wonder about the conclusions. This was due to social and economic factors. I know little about Iceland, but it is a good study population, unless the same large family thing was occuring there in that period.

    this is sardonically funny for me — in 7th grade i asked out my 3rd cousin without knowing he was my 3rd cousin. it was a running joke through high school that we almost kissed and all that.

    great post Budai.

    Love it!

    I don't really see the big deal with cousins getting it on. Now brother and sister, thats major ick, but cousins... I'm not fussed about. I wouldn't even recognise my 3rd or 4th cousin. They're so distantly related I can't see it making much difference.

    My mom accidentally dated her first cousin in high school. The area was so full of huuuuge families of the same nationality that it probably happened pretty often. It turned out that the cousin was adopted though, much to their relief when they found out.

    ^ I could see how 3rd or 4th cousins could date and not realise as I don't even know any of my 3rd or 4th cousins.

    Nothing funnier though if they got married and at the wedding had some joint family turn up "Umm, do we sit on the bride's side or the groom's?"
