Somalis need a cultural revolution asapI know! Especially in the south. Cousin marriages were not common whatsoever during my mother and grandparents generation. Can you imagine, non of my mothers generation and older in her family married a cousin. Now more than half of my cousins back in Xamar have married their first or second cousin!
I don't know why it is becoming common. In the north in the past, cousin marriages was at one point disliked.
We need to go back to the way it was pre-war.

One thing my father told is that because of the qabiil wars, the men with wives from other qabiils feared that the wife was backing her qabil. This led to many divorces and began the practise of marrying a cousin so that the qabil's secrets and wealth was not known to the rival qabil.I know! Especially in the south.

In Somalia, you will find families that have not only their children but also raising their sibilings children in the same house but still end up marryingWhat makes it worse, compared to Arabs is that traditionally Somalis like to raise their children into feeling that their first cousins are like their brothers/sisters. We don't have a culture of separation and segregation like the Arabs.
Yet, they are still marrying each other!!!!

It’s usually religious people (Christians) that are against it. I think the Bible forbids cousin marriagesKeep us updated sxb. Since you left the deen I would of thought you would against cousin marriages but I am surprised you are ok with.
People like to over exaggerate and sometimes lie. “Cousin marriage” isn’t going to make you look “deformed.” My cousins parents are cousins and he’s perfectly fine. He gets good grades, looks normal and plays sports.
Wallahi if he cleaned his teeth up he'd have such a charming smile
