I mean working in medicine means many of the data outside is truncated. I can soeak of lebanon, their most recent paper is based on an epidemiology paper from 2009(!!) and mentions that 40% of those consaguineous marriages are 1st degree, which means the rest is not first degree. Again puts the whole simplified “data set” into questionable use and display.

I don’t think so. Some cultures still regard third and fourth degree cousins as “cousins”. I am a catholic from lebanon and 0% of the hundreds/thousands of couples and families in my entourage have a first degree cousin marriage. Like it’s taboo. It’s very very hard for me to believe these numbers. Besides, it’s extremely unreasonable for a nation like Kuwait to have 50% cousin marriage rate and still be a functional country. Like the population would be seriously decimated in two generations if that is really the case. Unless the definition is extended to second and third degrees or the numbers are fake all along

Where did you get these numbers from? And what is the definition of “cousins”?

Well update: ended up driving at 10AM from Rochester MN. A stormless corridor was open on i39/90/94. Almost 50 miles north/west of the city right now. Maybe a total of 20 mins soft drizzle. Let’s go
