it is only in Nigeria and some countries who believe it is abomination. I travelled to Iraq and kuwait for leisure and I found out that it is okay for cousins to marry, so what do you say about that. As for me because of my background I cannot do it

that's only their culture but if you are from a place where it's not supported then you shouldn't do it!!!! |

I'm guessing this is a joke. . . I'll reserve my comments accordingly I define cousins as children of my parent's brothers, sisters, step brothers and sisters, half brothers and sisters,their brothers and sisters in law, their brothers, sisters, step, half, in-laws, and so forth, or any relative who is distant enough that nobody can quite remember how they are related to us. I'm sure if you gave me enough time, I could indicate a significant portion of the world as being my cousin. You dating your cousin, depending on whose child he/she is, their relation to you could be very weak. I'D say its up to you and how close you two are. |

I don't think it is advisable either but It is quite prevalent in some countries like pakistan . Saw a documentary a while ago in the uk ( no be them say them say) of such couples having kid with deformities and some unexplainable ailments.
While the frequency of occurence was not that significant i would still say such a move is fraught with huge risks.

And how exactly is the son of your step-mother's sister-in-law related to you by blood? Or does he not count as a cousin? Like I said, your choice depends on what you define as a cousin. |

If everyone practiced this, within less than ten generations, wouldn't the entire world be in some way related to each other (that is assuming more than 50% of the population gets married at some point)
Heck .. that may already be the case.

there is no way i can date my cousin especially if i know he is my Uncle or Aunty 's son the only situation is dating a distant relative which you may never know is related to you and not your father or mother's child.
HELL NO!

Date my cousin? No. No. No. because im a Nigerian and its not our culture but if we all came from Adam and Eve, that means we have been dating and marrying our brothers, sisters, cousin etc  |

Hello,
I Understand what you feel. I have had that experince also. Been dating my first cousin
for the past 6 years. i am not bold enough to do it publicly. But Did my reaseach in the bible and the bible does not consider it a taboo. I can back it with the bible.
The Late Rotimi Williams was said to have married his first cousin depsite all opposition.
Albert Eisten also married his cousin.
In my own case I am so close with my cousin and we have this incredible chemistry.And as much as I see and date other women we still can't resist each other.
I don't see it as wrong but I don't have the guts to confront the world.But almost everyone suspects that we are sleeping with each other. One day I will sit down and make it a fresh thread.
my point is I don't think its a taboo or a sin cause the bible does not go against it in anyway.
I am 32 and she 25.
what do you guys think

You are all geting it wrong, if we are to trace everything back to back, you will all know that we are from the same family. We all evolved from Adam and Eve, so why are you saying dating your cousing is an abormination?
We are all the same family and God has instruct us to be spreading as far as we can.
Date your Sister too if you like.

A cousin to me is like my own brother or sister and I would never date someone that close, but here in Namibia there is a certain culture that allows it and the parents allready like choose the partners for they're kids. Even some of my friends do it and some even got married, but to me it's still abnormal.
