Chapter 1074 The Relationship Between Shuichi Akai and Akemi Miyano



He is a third-degree relative to his aunt and uncle.

And cousins ​​are exactly fourth-degree relatives.

If a person is not within the third degree of kinship, it is perfectly permissible for them to marry.

Moreover, Guangyou has seen such examples in real life.

He had encountered some cases before, including couples who were cousins.

Even in China, where marriage between cousins ​​is prohibited, it was not always forbidden.

Historically, only two dynasties prohibited marriage between cousins.

Although they are prohibited, these regulations are actually implemented in a very flexible manner.

It's not a complete ban.

For example, "Dream of the Red Chamber".

To put it jokingly, this is simply a "love story" between cousins.

Although it is a work of literature and a fictional story, it was written based on some of the regulations at the time.

It can still serve as an example.

Even in modern times, marriage between cousins ​​is not prohibited.

For example, the legal provisions promulgated in December 1930 and implemented on May 5, 1931, did not prohibit cousins ​​from marrying.

The general meaning of the clause is:

Marriage between close relatives is prohibited, except for cousins.

It was not prohibited in the Marriage Law of 1950.

The prohibition on marriage between blood relatives within three generations was only introduced in the 1980 Marriage Law.

They used what's known as temple rituals.

If Roman law were applied, it would not be prohibited.

As for the so-called harms of cousin marriage...

Actually, it was exaggerated.

The book "College Background Relationships" by Alan Bitlers, a medical geneticist at Murdoch University in Australia, has transformed "cousin marriage," which has always been seen as the opposite of "eugenics," into a "misunderstood common sense."

Cousin marriage is not uncommon worldwide.

Alan Bitlers also demonstrated this fact from a genetic perspective.

The risks of cousin marriage are considered exaggerated.

A more scientific approach to this issue should be:

Pay attention to family history of genetic diseases, but do not absolutely prohibit marriage between cousins.

According to the data in this book...

More than 10 percent of people worldwide marry distant cousins ​​or closer relatives.

The large number of participants also includes many scientists and celebrities known for their rigor.

For example, Einstein.

His second wife, Elsa, was his cousin.

A capitalist surnamed Li had a wife who was his cousin.

Therefore, as long as Shuichi Akai and Akemi don't care about their relationship, it doesn't really have a big impact.
