Cousin marriages

Post by eliteSomali »

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.

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.

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.

Its not good for family relations. Youll have a higher risk of having disabled children.

:lol: I am not married to my cousin nor do I plan to marry a tenth cousin, for that matter.

That is highly exaggerated. You would have to marry close relatives for several generation before things start to go wrong.


Elite, how much we talking here :steviej:

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.

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.
