Why do Alabama, Georgia, and Florida agree with NY and California on this matter?

And for the resident Arizonans, Illinoisians, and Mainers, what are the “exceptions”?

There are only laws against it in states where it was enough of an issue that they needed laws against it.

The geographical groups have different motivations.

Alabama, Georgia, and Florida are full of a bunch of hicks that want to have sex with their cousins. NY and California both have an underrated amount of hicks outside of their major cities, but the elitists are prob motivated to keep the bloodline pure (like the Targaryens).

I think you stumbled on something sinister, and I don’t think Alabama, Georgia, and Florida are all innocent either.
Ah, you want to know about the thing, don’t you? The thing that’s been quietly simmering beneath the surface for decades, possibly centuries, a carefully orchestrated chain of events so finely tuned that even the most astute observer would miss it, if they weren’t looking very closely. So, you see, the connection is clear: California, Colorado, New Mexico, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, New York, Massachusetts. They’re all linked by this unseen force, this heat that arises from friction. It’s not just a matter of geography or culture, no—it’s about something much more fundamental. Each of these states is part of a larger, more carefully crafted system, one that’s been in place for far longer than you might imagine. But they’re not the only players. There’s more. Much more. But that’s a story for another time. Keep watching. Keep paying attention.

I am actually ashamed that MS is better in regards to this and we are in AL.

That makes for some fun grab-assing during touch football games on Thanksgiving, or sneaking into her tent on a family camp out.

I’m not going to marry her.

Misleading. Louisiana has tons of legally married 1st cousins. There is just a semi-regular act of legislature legitimizing them.

my dad’s brother and his wife had four gorgeous daughters, one became a fairly famous Broadway and television actress, it’s funny because my uncle reminded me of Larry Bud Melman, his wife was a pretty woman though, those girls were beautiful

So, every legislative session, you and your bride get your name read in front of an assembly of lawmakers and news people while you get special dispensation for your hick matrimony?

“I say, I say, Mistah Speakah, I say, I say, I would like to introduce to the floor a beeyall to legitimize the marriage of Mr. Thomas Matthews and Mrs. Loretta Matthews (nee Matthews) of my great Parish of Jeffahson.”

Just to be contrarian, 1st cousin birth defects occurrences are only 1-3% greater than when not related. If the family has no known history of inherited diseases, the absolute risk remains fairly low, and can be mitigated by genetic counseling.

Cousin marriage has been the norm throughout history, and it wasn’t until the 1200s that the Catholic Church crusaded against it, and it was mostly political, monetary and for power gain.

“Politically, the Church’s stance on cousin marriage also had practical consequences. By restricting such marriages, the Church gained control over land inheritance and wealth distribution. Marriages within noble families often involved the transfer of significant property, and by limiting the ability of families to marry within their extended kin groups, the Church could exert influence over land and inheritance rights. This often worked in favor of consolidating power and wealth within Church-controlled estates, while also weakening the influence of secular aristocracy, especially in regions where noble families were tightly interwoven”

It’s not biblical, as Isaac and Rebecca got married. Levitican law clearly spells out what is incest, and cousin is not one of them, but brother/sister-in-law is a sometimes a sin, which is not illegal.

What’s the reason for it to be outlawed?
Should it be illegal for non related couples with known mutations to have children?
