Cousin marriages
For those of you who find the idea disgusting, would you change your mind if there were incentives offered for marrying your cousin? This is primarily for the guys but the ladies can contribute too. For instance, say you have a rich elderly aunt/uncle who's soon to pass who wants you to marry their daughter to keep the wealth within the family. Would you do it? Before you ask, assume this cousin of yours is a first cousin.

Re: Cousin marriages
Cousin from father side is very disgusting and not practiced by Somalis. However, I have seen dozens of guys who married their cousin from mother side.
I detest any cousin focking so no to the paper.

Re: Cousin marriages
Noted. Rich girls are fancied and as such, she'd probably have loads of suitors lining up. Each one of them probably eying for the wealth. If you could've stopped this wouldn't you? Just because you do it doesn't mean you're doing it for your own personal gain. Maybe you'd be doing for her and her siblings if she has any.Hilaac21 wrote:Cousin from father side is very disgusting and not practiced by Somalis.

Re: Cousin marriages
That is highly exaggerated. You would have to marry close relatives for several generation before things start to go wrong.Jasmine6 wrote:Yuck, no, eww.

Let's just say enough to last you and your kids and their kids comfortably. This is assuming you're not robbed. After all, it's Somalia.Perfect_Order wrote:That is highly exaggerated.

Elit taas waaba laga daran yahay, hadii adi iyo gabadhu isfahmi weysaan qaraabada ayaa is qabsanee, tan labaad si bulshadu isu dhaxgasho waxaa la qaatay in banaanka loo kala qaraabto and above hada lacag qof uma guursan karo.
Btw to help her and her siblings they are many other ways to do rather than marrying her.
