Odenigbo Aroli: Its forbidden in IGBOLAND and the only people who probably practice that are the osus!! if its forbidden by Igbo culture than i think you should do your duty and folow it. but i dont get your mentality. you throw your religion in the bin, and yet you folow these small customs. i really dont get it. |

It is very big taboo in almost all African cultures. I would say it is forbidden in all Sahelian cultures. |

Fulaman198: yes whats wrong its not blood relation is it? what if say, i live in Nigeria and i marry a woman and by some coincidence, that womans sister marries my brother living in the uk its perfectly alright. infact it will further discourage and prevent our actual blood related children marrying each other. |

PAGAN 9JA: I think you misunderstood brother,that is your brothers wife. |

This was isn't bad at all. In many parts of pre-colonial Igboland, when a man died, his brother would marry his wife and inherit all of his property. |

Fulaman198: BY THE GODS!!!!!!!! sorry i really misunderstood. sorry ifyalways! we dont do that. Fula is right. . it is not a buy one, get one free package. |

odumchi: This was isn't bad at all. That was precolonial Igboland and we all know there was nothing like divorce then!! And that practice would most likely prevail in a case when the widow has had kids for the late husband and is still very young and mind you,not everybody complied with that practice cos some remarried after mourning their husband. |

I have read of twins marrying twins. That's is two male twins marrying two same female twins. Though it seems not, one among sexual sins condemned at Leviticus chapter 18:6-18 precisely verse 18 drew attention to what is condemned. if a man should marry two sisters, but nothing there indicates that two brothers may not marry sisters of same parents. Verse 18, is a critical lesson of what Jacob's went through between Rachel and Leah, the two women that through rivalry built the house of Israel.
