Statistics reveal that more U.S. states allow cousins to marry than same-sex
couples.
Of the 50 states, 19 (including California, Alaska, New York, and Florida)
permit restriction-free marriages between first cousins, while only five (
Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont, plus the
District of Columbia) allow people to marry someone of the same sex.
Marriage between cousins, while once commonly practiced in Europe as a way
to preserve royal bloodlines, is much more stigmatized in the United States,
despite high-profile first cousin marriage participants such as Charles
Darwin, H.G. Wells, and Albert Einstein.
Two states, Vermont and Massachusetts, offer marriage rights to both cousins
and same-sex couples. | l******i 发帖数: 4666 | 2 近亲婚姻如果成天到大街上骄傲去,同样也会招人厌恶的. |
