I am from West Bengal and here in Hindu family a brother or uncle is regarded as a' second father' and girls respect them as well and men also take care of them 😊 to think about marrying them is nothing but a nightmare and it's also ruined the beautiful relationship among cousins. We celebrate Bhai duj , Rakhsabandhan with love and respect with all cousins.

I belong to a tribe in Assam. In my tribe, there are lots of restrictions regarding marriage. You cannot marry if both the bride and spouse have same title( even though they are not related in any sort), and many more complicated rules, cousins are treated as brothers and sisters. It's incredible that our ancestors have adopted those rules to prevent biological disorders of the offerings from the ancient times when there were no education system at all. Because of this practice we hardly see any physical abnormalties in our tribe.

A fun fact : Arjun and Subhadra were cousins. Arjuna's mom and Subhadra's dad were siblings. In South India the cousin you can marry has to be between bua and mama 's kids. However, the numbers have greatly reduced due to biological defects such marriages can cause.

I am from Karnataka and I can speak for almost all people who live in northern part of Karnataka. This practice used to be common till my parents' time but has reduced significantly these days. Main cause to stop the practice was that we as a society saw some health problems in children born out of such marriages. Not in all children but in few cases. To clarify more on what's cross cousin is. They could may their Mama's or Atte/Buwa's kids. Marrying Kaka/Chikkappa/Chacha's or Chikkamma/chikki/mausi's kids was strictly prohibited, no one even thought about it. I have not seen a single such case in my entire life. As of marrying ones niece: back in days people used to have lots of kids. So imagine a case where the eldest offspring was a girl and youngest offspring say 7th or 8th child was a boy. Now obviously there's a huge age difference between these 2 Sister and Brother. Now, it was very common that the girls used to get married in early ages. You can imagine this bride's youngest brother running around in her marriage in shorts with runny nose 😀 This sister used give birth to children very early. So now this Eldest sister's daughters and her youngest brothers were of same age and compatible for marriage from the age perspective. As you married off your elder sister to a different man outside your family, her lineage became totally different. (her kids Gotra would be different than yours). Hence marriages were allowed. Nowadays these practices exists close to none.

I'm a child born from a Consanguine marriage. My family in Kerala actually don't appreciate such a marriage, but in my case, parents fell in love with each other. I never knew much about the negative aspects of Consanguine marriages, so few years back I had fallen in love with my cousin as well, and we were in a relationship for almost a year. That is when I learnt about this and shared the information with her as well. I realised how lucky I was to be born without any abnormalities, and we mutually got out of the relationship. We were in love when we broke up. But we did it, only to avoid the risk of spoiling a child's life and also for a happier future. More people in South India should be educated about the problems of Consanguine marriages.

Risk of birth defects in consanguineous marriages is overrated. Risk is even lesser in communities that have practiced consanguinity for thousands of years and have inherited stronger genes over the years, not weaker genes. Don't take my word for it. Look up research. Not the one done on people from typically non consanguineous society, but are born out of consanguineous relationship. Look for research done on rate of birth defects in consanguineous society and you will know

Main reasons for cousin marriage 1. When parents were not able to get their daughter married by giving dowry. 2. They used to feel it is safe for their daughter to be in relatives house . But they are decreasing now. And one more thing these marriages are not with maternal aunt's or paternal uncle's offsprings as they are also called as brothers but with maternal uncle's or paternal aunt's offsprings as they are called with some other relation (in English everyone is called as cousin like chachi,bua,maami ,maama,chacha here everyone is aunt and uncle)

I am highly prone to diseases and frequently on meds. I've found this cousins and uncle-niece marriage concept utterly disgusting from what I've experienced.

I'm from Andhra Pradesh and I've personally experienced this issue. My paternal aunt considered me as a 'perfect bride' for her son and even my cousin was perfectly fine with the idea of marrying me (I'm seven years younger than him). They even proposed the match to my father. I was horrified because I always called my cousin 'elder brother' and to learn that he did have a romantic interest in me, when all while I considered him a sibling, sickened me to the core. My father rejected it without second thoughts as he was against cousin marriages having learnt in his late twenties about 'incest' and the resulting genetic problems in the later generations. Yay to father! My aunt was upset when my father rejected her and she even had the gall to say to my father "If you marry her into our household we'll take care of her. Since I'm her aunt, you can rest the fear that she might suffer under her in-laws. Also, the dowry will remain in our family without going to nameless outsiders." My father simply said "Bold of you to assume that I'll be offering any form of dowry," and the argument quickly escalated and the relations naturally strained after that. Even today my father and aunt barely spare a polite greeting at family gatherings. And me being awkward, I just turn opposite whenever I spot my aunt or cousin. I was the lucky case but my classmate from University was married to her cousin right after graduation. Cousin marriages are a common occurance in South India and regarded as normal and 'part of the tradition.' I'm glad that this issue is being spoken of. Edit: Incest is a common issue across religions and the people who practice this 'tradition' aren't even aware that cousin marriages come under incest. You see not all cousins can marry. I'm a Hindu and I can marry my paternal aunt's son and also marry my maternal uncle's son--these fellas are not technically adressed as brothers, they have a separate form of address so as to prevent any awkwardness later on if I marry them ( though my dad instructed me to call them as brothers from early age)but I cannot marry my maternal aunt's son or my paternal uncles's son(they are considered as brothers). I don't know if it's true but my mother said that the opposite applies for muslims. So, it's like everyone have their own rules for acceptable incest.

This concept of 'cousin marriages' have always irked me growing up. And it also made talking with cousins a wierd/stereotypical one as against talking with siblings from father's brothers/mother's sisters. You always have a sense that you can't mingle with your cousins freely. Because if you do, society will think that you are interested with them. Even parents think so. Being from South India, I like the North Indian perspective of these marriages and I want to consider my cousin as a sibling and want to mingle with them freely during family unions.

I am from Kolkata, when I was in class 7-8 my tuition teacher told my mother that her father and her late mother were cousin. We couldn't care less because we knew that in muslim community it is allowed to marry first cousin. However her younger sister whose age was around 17-18 years was deformed and had a brain of 2-3 year old child, she couldn't even walk instead she would slither, she couldn't alarm her sister whenever she wanted to defecate or urinate and she couldn't even speak. I felt sorry for her and always questioned why would god make her like this. But recently few years ago i realised that her condition could have been due to her parents' cousin marriage. I haven't communicated with my teacher since I cleared class 8 and its been more than 10 years. I hope her sister is surviving.

I am from Tamilnadu. Yes marrying cousins and close relatives is common in South India. In olden days the idea was to keep the property within the family. That is why such marriages were conducted and accepted. Even though it was and is a disaster genetically. As of now it has come down to a great extent in urban areas but in the rural belt it still persists. The biological implications of it for the children born out of such marriages is grave. Education and repeated reinforcement is the only way the society will give up such a practise. Any social change takes years. There will be a lot of resistance too from the conservative elements.

Being a tamilian, I wanna tell some information. What is so called "cousin" is the name given generally by british to some relationship but in south indian culture we have many subdivision. Ex: your mother's elder or younger sister is consider as chinnamma/ periamma (small mother / big mother) but your mother's brother is consider as mana (thai mama), who is the most power relative next to your parents and his son or daughter can be married with you but here is one clause if you are a male you should be elder than your mama's daughter or you will be consider as brothers to her. If your are a female you should be younger than your mama's son or you will be consider as sister onto to him. Same to your father's side. Your father's brother , elder or younger is called periyappa/ chithappa (big father or small father) whose son and daughter are consider as brother and sister but your father's sister is called aththai and her son or daughter can be married to you and the clause said above is applicable to here too. Why this type of exist in south india? 1. Because those days they search bride or groom within few kilometers so that they can visit relatives home easily. 2. Unlike north india south indian bride enjoy more privilege, first year diwali, aadi month (whole 30 days), while she is carrying she will be taken to her mothers home to make her happy. First delivary will be at her mothers home. If it is her uncle or aunty's home she will enjoy double benefits. 3. Already the family is familiar with the bride or grooms family. 4. Both families customs, tradition and nature of job will be same , so adaptability to new place will be easier. 5. Most important thing is bride can have quarrel with her in-laws or to her husband hence in-laws are brother or sister to your mother or father and that can be easily gotten.

In South we follow gothra system in which people of a particular gothra don't marry within themselves. My grandparents and maternal uncle had cousin marriages they are absolutely fine. Cousinsister and counsin brother are grammatically wrong... It is only cousin - he-cousin Or she cousin. irrespective of type marriages ,unfortunately there are many genetic abnormalities due to various factors. Cousin marriages and uncle and niece marriages have happened for generations but not always within close circle. Abhimanyu the great warrior was product of cousin marriage. Western research will always find fault in our culture and provide statistics ( authenticity?) Rather they can show case s where this has affected that would be profound

I am a Gujarati married to a Kannadiga. My husband's brother married some sort of cousin (not aware of the exact relation) and when I first realized this, I was shocked. For me, all cousins are brothers, so I didnt understand how this could happen. Slowly I learnt that this is common in South India. My husband's brother has a son now who is 11 years old and my daughter is 6 years old. I can see so many health and a bit of mental issues in my bro in law's (BIL) son. It's sad to see the physical suffering of the child. And there are quite some mentally challenged children in my husband's family. More than the amount you would see otherwise in families. And I have come to realize its due to these cousin marriages. I once spoke to my husband about it, but he just brushed it aside. He was either embarrassed or didnt like what he was hearing. With science so advanced and evidence available that such marriages can and will lead to genetic issues in the progeny, I dont understand why people still follow this tradition? My heart breaks for my nephew who will always suffer health issues due to a mistake made for traditions' sake. And the cherry on top is, while nephew celebrates rakhi with my daughter, he does not with his bua's daughter cause she is a potential bride for him. My mind is just f u c k e d!!!!

Also the third chhatrapati Rajaram raje bhonsle were married to Maharani Tarabai, who was the daughter of his mama Hambirrao Mohite. The same way Pradyumna- son of bhagwan krishna married to the daughter of his mama rukmi, as per the bhagwatam. There are so many examples like arjuna- subhadra, krishna-mitravinda, etc.

Hi Mohak, I am a Tamizhan. I want you to know that unlike what is said in this video , Gotra system exists in south India too. It is the gotra system that prevents parallel cousin marriages. If you see parallel cosuins will always have same gotra & cross cousins will belong to different gotras. The same gotra system also prevents a male from marrying his bhathiji wheareas one can marry his bhanji as she would be obviously from a different gotra. Hope i could make it clear to you !!

Also, cousin marriages are rare in Kerala nowadays in all the communities due to the more number of educated people.

Bro, South india is being used as a scapegoat for justifying Cousin marraiges of Islam. While in reality since the spread of Christianity was more in south India hence people redefined the Gotra system so as to suit their purpose. From kashmir to kanyakumari, India runs on Gotra system. What Some of the southerners are doing is a result of the misinterpretation of Gotra system. Edit 1:- Gotra system is so deeprooted in the Indian society that most of the Tribes have Gotra system too. This is enough to prove the importance of Gotra system while finding the right match in Indian subcontinent.

Actually the marriages in South India are between sister's offspring and her brother's (maternal uncle) offspring. NOT between two brother's children or two sister's children.

Fun fact is: in bihar, one of village, my brahmin friend is there, and he said they cant marry any girls of that community from that village for they all are like sisters.

Yes thats what most people don't understand. I've seen fools telling me how a person was born out of cousin marriage and doesn't have any disease. Well duh! That's because he's probably a 1st generation child. There won't be any inbreeding problems in the 1st to 3rd generations but inbreeding depression will keep accumulating until it actually shows up as a genetic disease in the 4th or 5th generation. That's why we Bengalis compared atleast 3 generations of gotra and at max 5. Some Hindi belt people compare upto 8 generations but that is a little too excessive in my opinion. Upto 4-5 generations is the optimum amount. Neither too much nor too less. For example my own parents compared their gotras of upto 4 generations only. Not beyond that. I'm of the same opinion as them and if I ever were to get married I would compare 4 generations of gotra too. I myself am of Shandilya gotra

You only call your cousins as Brother and sister in Indo-Aryan languages (North Indian), Dravidian languages follow a whole different kinship system where parallel cousins are referred to as brother and sister but cross cousins have special words. Also the our words of Cross-Aunt/Uncle are the same as the words for In-Laws, for example both your mother's brother and your husband's/wife's father is called mama in Telugu. Same for words for your wife's/husband's siblings and your Cross-Cousins. Coming to the weird feeling thing, it is weird to you cause you grew up calling your cousins the same word and your siblings and considered them your siblings, in the same way we are always reminded (from childhood) that our cross cousins can be our potential spouses and also our media also shows a lot of romantic stuff between Cross-Cousins so it's kinda normal for us. If you go ask a Telugu or a Tamil person what they think on marrying their parallel cousins, they'd act the same way you are acting, disgusted even by the thought of it, as we grew up with a feeling that they are our siblings and using the same words we use for our own siblings with them, infact even parallel aunt and uncles are referred with the same word as our parents but with a prefix like big and small, for example parallel uncle who is elder than your father is called pedda-nanna/bapu (big-father) and parallel uncle who is younger than your father is called chinna-nanna/bapu,Babai (small-father)

I remember watching a Marathi TV show called 'Home Minister' as a kid. In the show, the host travels across Maharashtra and talks to married couples about their love story and all. Many times the the couple were first cousins, as in the husband was the wife's atte bhau (Bua ka beta in marathi). They also talked about how they liked each other since their teenage, basically they romanticized cousin marriages a lot. I found it really weird. Also, in Marathi serials I've seen some married women calling their mother-in-law as aatya (bua). Maybe I'm watching too much of Zee Marathi with my aaji.

I am from AP, we do have & follow gotra system as well. Marriage between parllel cousins or first cousins is NO here mostly. Don't know about rest of South India. Marriage between uncle and niece used to happen few years ago, but it has gone down a lot, i mean so much down ( some exception cases if age gap between bride & groom is low ,5 - 7 yrs max ). Marriages between second cousins & cross cousins is still happening. People now a days are exposed & having a lot of awareness, hopefully it dies down.

I agree. Mohak's topic is good but there are some mistaken conclusions due to poor or insufficient research. Mohak needs to study the more in depth statistics to understand this intricate topic. I wish to give some points: (1) Consanguine marriages are not modern in India, it has dwapara yug examples also. Most recently evidence was found that all India is one gene, north/south or aryan/dravidian divide is politically motivated from British era to divide and rule. (2) Gotras concept is very much there in southern states also; hence to conclude anything through the difference of numbers between northern states and southern states (I doubt whether those numbers are correct!) is superficial. You could of course say that 50% is sa-gotra in first cousin marriage and it reduces to the second and tertiary levels. However, to prove that people of northern states have been conscious to avoid sa-gotra marriage, there is a need to delve into the statistics of second cousin and second uncle/niece marriages.

Hello I am from Kerala, and I want to say I was shocked when my dad said he wanted me to marry my cousin, he said he always thought I would marry her, needless to say I said that I would never marry anyone in my family, but the whole conversation still weirds me out to this day. He had this conversation with me 4 years ago and I am 20.

Even in Telugu states, cross cousin marriages do happen, but not compulsory. But the compulsory thing is that we shouldn't marry within same gotra. Gotra system is strictly followed here. Cross cousins will anyhow not share same gotra unlike Parallel cousins. Here, Mami/Buaa/Saas is called Atta. And Mama/Phupha/Sasur is called Mama. But, Mausi/Badimaa/Chachi is equivalent to Mother and Mausa/Badepapa/Chacha is equivalent to Father.

Kerala hindus used to marry cousins. The boy can call his cousin girl 'murapennu'. That is, she is the one he should marry. In old malayalam movies you can see these type of marriages or the boy running away from this marriage & marrying the girl he like😂. Also in our village there is a family where one man married two siblings. This happened years ago. He is now too old. They do this to keep wealth & properties within the family. Now it has changed. Cousin marriages are rare here.

Cousins and sisters are different. In South India and Maharashtra cross cousin marriages are common. Amongst Hazara and Potohari Khatris both Hindu and Sikh marry their maternal aunts' cousins. It's not wrong. In Abrahamic religions, paternal uncles' daughters are the first choice.

In Marathi wedding it is common for the groom to walk w/ his maternal uncle in the mandap and the uncle has to say "I am giving my daughter to you" even if the boy is not marrying his first cousin. This practise shows that even Marathi people had con-whatever marriages.

I have never heard of this, but the uncle does accompany the bride and groom. But actually consanguineous marriages were common in maharashtra I think but they were only acceptable between a boy and his maternal uncles daughter and no other way. Not even a girl and her maternal uncle's son. Alas, I am glad my family has no such history for the last three generations and I am thankful for the fault-free genetics I got as a side.
