it doesn’t strength anything, who in their right minds wants to engage in sexual activity with a cousin??just say you’re freaky weirdo and keep quiet.
Somalis can hardly take care of themselves. who’s going to care and support hundreds thousands of disabled people? half of pakistan is cooked because of it


Only thing it strengthens is retardation amongst future generations. Any Somali who willingly goes out and marries their cousin lacks options and are sexually deprived.
 
You guys are weird always going to extremes instead of just taking the middle path.

It's not crazy common amongst Somalis, but I've seen quite a few relatives married to their habayar/reer abti side...that's more common in Somalia and seen as caadi. The less common one is getting married to the adeer/edo side.

It's not haram, and has its pros and cons. Intergenerational cousin marriages is not known amongst Somalis, but if cousins get married once in a bluemoon it's not the end of the world lol. I think it has its uses especially for diaspora males who are serious responsible guys who want to get married back home...cousin/second-third cousin, same subclan etc is the wisest way to go imo.

1st cousins is not great, but it usually does not lead to problems, especially if it is a one off and not a generational re-occurance.

By the time you get to third cousin, the person is basically the same as a random unrelated individual from the ethnic population.
