Re: A question about incest

My take is that, from a genetic point of view, it's mostly fine in small doses, but if it takes place on a large scale and repeatedly over time, it does start to have systemic effects on the gene pool. Also, from a social point of view, there does seem to be some kind of negative effect of cousin marriages on social cohesion, trust, and egalitarianism. So while it's usually fine on an individual level (barring the power-dynamic issues you mention), it's also probably better on the whole that it be discouraged and slightly taboo.
