Opinions?

So then, Delaware, Maryland, Rhode Island, New York, and California allow gay first cousins to marry.

And they should!

A lot of people oppose cousin marriage using the "mutant babies" excuse. I wonder whether those people oppose gay cousin marriage? There is no risk of mutant babies there, so it's fine, right?

I don't think there's a biological issue with most first-cousin marriages. I think it was originally outlawed because the original state constitution writers had to define incest. Some said only members of nuclear family (parents & siblings) and some included cousins in that.

It actually was, thank you... but since it was already derailed...

I got bored, and decided to comply.

Actually, the epidemology around diseases related to even sibling incest is really patchy.
