    Pun aside, on a socio-cultural and legal level yes it is relative, it all depends how far separated you are on the cousin tree and what is legally and culturally acceptable. Like in many Middle Eastern countries first cousin marriages is straight up normal and not considered incest.

          I’m not prepared to state that, but when your tree looks like a small diamond, that’s an issue.

        Sure but culturally it is a lot less normalized than in the Middle East.
