Story from The King's Princess

I just found out that one of my mother side cousins are married to each other.. You know the myth where they say when you marry your cousin you will face biological defects onto your children? Well, apparently it's not true.. My cousins have their own babies and they are perfectly fine.. LOL..

• 26 states allow first cousin marriages; most people can marry their cousin in the US.


• US prohibitions against cousin marriages predate modern genetics.


• No European country prohibits marriage between first cousins. It is also legal throughout Canada and Mexico to marry your cousin. The U.S. is the only western country with cousin marriage restrictions.


• Children of non-related couples have a 2-3% risk of birth defects, as opposed to first cousins having a 4-6% risk. Genetic counseling is available for those couples that may be at a special risk for birth defects (e.g. You have a defect that runs in your family) In plain terms first cousins have at a 94 percent + chance of having healthy children. Check the links section for more information on genetic counselors. The National Society of Genetic Counselors estimated the increased risk for first cousins is between 1.7 to 2.8 percent, or about the same a any woman over 40 years of age.


• The frequency of cousin marriages in the USA is about 1 in 1,000. The frequency of cousin marriages in Japan is about 4 in 1,000


• It is estimated that 20 percent of all couples worldwide are first cousins. It is also estimated that 80 percent of all marriages historically have been between first cousins!


• Albert Einstein married his first cousin. And so did Charles Darwin, who had exceptional children.


• Albert Einstein married his first cousin. And so did Charles Darwin, who had exceptional children.


• God commanded many cousins to marry, including Zelophehad's 5 daughters, Eleazar's daughters, Jacob (who married both Rachel and Leah, first cousins), and Isaac and Rebekkah (first cousins once removed)


• We are all cousins. No two people are more distantly related than 50th cousins.
