One of the most amazing videoclips ever.

actually it varies from state to state, in some states, first cousins can marry with no restrictions. in others, they can get married if they cannot reproduce and/or get genetic counseling
 
can’t post the link but the website is cousincouples.com and has all the state laws listed

@Background Pony  
Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt were fifth cousins. Mary Todd and Abraham Lincoln were not related - she was the cousin of two of his law partners. You are correct about Albert and Elsa Einstein. In fact, they were both first and second cousins (their mothers were sisters, their fathers were first cousins). Their marriage does not seem to have been illegal, and more people were worried about her desire for fame than their relatedness.
 
 
For most of human history, cousin marriages have been condoned. It’s hard not to be related when families stay in the same area for hundreds of years (even my father and his first wife, whose families lived in the same town for a mere 10 generations, were fourth cousins).
 
Under current US law, marriage between first cousins is incest, but it is the most distant relationship that is covered. Even first cousins once removed are fair game.

Okay I have to admit this is well drawn and adorable.

Don’t worry, they’re not biologically related!

@Co2re  
Why not? If they don’t choose to reproduce when they know they share too much of their genes, there’s nothing inherently bad about it.

@Impossible9
 
Hmm… okay, maybe I didn’t phrase that right. What I MEANT was, if they’re close enough to where you clearly know they’re FAMILY, no.

Ehhh… no.

FDR married his cousin.  
So did Abraham Lincoln.  
So did Albert Einstein.
 
 
I don’t think it’s necessarily the same as being with a sibling, parent, uncle, etc. Cousins only share one-eighth their genes, so genetic abnormalities really aren’t amplified that much if the couple chooses to reproduce.
 
TL;DR I support this shipping!!

@Background Pony  
“no matter how […] distantly related”
 
Under that logic, sex with anyone, or any Terrestrial life is incest, since all life on earth shares a common ancestor, and is therefore related.

Since when does being involved with a cousin not equal incest, regardless of WHERE it is? Blood-related = incest, no matter how closely or distantly related.

@Background Pony  
Aw, shucks!! Well, I always did want kids…

Yes. Yes! I love you Lulubell, take my nonexistent money!

So sweet!

LULUBELL I LOVE YOU  
PLEASE HAVE MAGICAL LESBIAN SPAWN WITH ME

Incest.  
The tag that weirds me out the most.

Dude what if like, there’s some recessive immortality gene, and the massive incest in the apple family has given them insane longevity?
 
Except for AJ’s parents. They got the “asploded by a truck” gene.

Wincest.

I blame Tangled Roots for making me ship this so hard.

@Lulubell  
Also kissing does not equal foalcon. It’s just kissing. Simple as that.

Looooove

Applejack: APPLEBLOOM! BABS SEED! Y’ALL BETTER STOP PERPETUATING THEM STEREOTYPES! Get inside to do that, y’hear?!

This isn’t foalcon, they’re of age here.

Hey now. Cousin lovin’ ain’t incest everywhere.
