This happens more often then you'd think. But still, FYL.

My parents are first cousins too, lol, I turned out fine. Just don't go off with your first cousin, there will probably be some trouble there :P

I don't care what anyone says marrying your first cousin is messed up. That's your family. If you can say you met your spouse at a family reunion then you might want to rethink you decision making skills...eww. Sorry, but eww.

I think you should get an IQ test lulz. Be a part of a study, you inbreds tend to have medical and mental health issues. FYL. Which reminds me of the line btw "were your parents related, you know before they were married?". Hahaha you'd have to say YES

my parents are cousins, and i am perfectly normal, and very smart with 80% averages.

WOW... FYL, indeed! Did they know?

Yeah, but they can pass along genetic diseases really well...there were quite a few hemophiliacs in the European royal families because of all the intermarrying.

By any chance are your parents name Corrine and Christopher?

Marrying your cousin isn't illegal. It's been done before. It's a common practice in other countries. . You do risk passing genes that run strong in your family to your kid though. Things like diabetes, certain types of cancer, and certain types of mental illness can be passed to the children. I think it's creepy, especially if you have a close relationship with said cousin. But if they're reasonably good-looking, why not? Family reunions will be a bit awkward, though.
