When an anti goes "THEY'RE RELATED!!" the best response would be: "And what about it?"
Tumblr media
I literally thought this after seeing someone say this about Tia & Benjamin from Twilight yesterday. (Distant cousins, big whoop. 🙄) It's like when someone likes a villain, and they go: "THEY'RE A VILLAIN!! THEY'VE KILLED PEOPLE!!!" Yeah, no shit, Sherl0ck! 🙄
I hate when they state the obvious.
Perfect reaction.

I agree with @chicavetta that cousins are not incest & that even though dating a sibling shouldn't be in courage banning siblings from marrying still seems cruel & sibling couples should be in courage to get counseling to make sure their relationship is healthy instead of banning siblings from marrying.
Short stories are way easier to write because I am a newbie writer but I want to make a difference in the world by writing about siblings dating and cousins dating but can a short story really make a difference?
Making a difference doesn't just happen all at once. It takes a lot of little things to make a big difference. That's why people should focus on celebrating the little things they do and just enjoying it and appreciating those who take the time to understand it.
Though the short story form is not my personal chosen form (I want to write long stories or a series), I actually took a course on short stories in university years ago as part of my other studies, and I learned a lot and developed a deeper appreciation for that form. It really is its own thing and it's not just the length that characterizes what a good short story really is.
There are movies out there inspired from just short stories. If it explores a compelling idea, it will be noticed and remembered. There's this short story collection called Fat Man in History that I still remember because of one story in it that really moved me.
You're right that there is an advantage to writing in that form because it means you can finish a piece earlier rather than taking years to do worldbuilding. You never know unless you try, so you should definitely give it a go and have faith in yourself and write as many as you want. And try to focus on enjoying it and then see how it goes.

Cousin couples are like any other couple but with a dash of spice!💕
You are correct about cousins like idk ive two of my cousins one of them is my wife now and like where im from (france) people dont even bat an eye at that. Cultures are just different i guess. But I still like cousin "incest" in fiction. Its like regular relationships with a dash of spice.
I agree about regular relationships with a dash of spice! 🤭

There is going to be a John Wick themed cocktail lounge opening in New York city and in all of New York state first cousin marriage is legal like it should be because it is beautiful. The cocktail lounge is Welcome to The Continental: The Hotel Bar Experience. I hope a lot of happy first cousin couples go to that cocktail lounge.😊
Date night.

Wise words @rainbowamory ❣
Sibling couples and cousin cousin couples are both treated with hate when why hate when we should want everyone to be open-minded but how can we help make more people more open-minded? Like what can we do, just let the world be shrouded in hate instead of the world shinning bright with open-mindedness?
I don't have an easy answer. I just think the first thing a person can do is change themselves within... just question the things they've been taught and decide how they will act if they come across consensual relationships of this type in real life. The best thing to do right now seems to be to keep the privacy of those couples and never let anyone else know about them so that they can live without the hate being directed at them.
As for what you can do to change negative attitudes, even something like making an anonymous blog can make a difference in educating people and dispelling some myths. Or at least it lets people know that there are other perspectives out there and that they don't have to go along with what is taught to them by a toxic society.
So write, speak up when you can, change one person at a time if the opportunity presents itself in conversations and if you feel safe doing so, and otherwise just keep your own mind open because that's still something.

Hello. My name is Francesca. My husband Oliver and I are both first cousins and fourth cousins. Our fathers are brothers, and our mothers are third cousins. Oliver and I are so relived to hear that Tom Jones is still alive, we cried when we heard from social media that Tom Jones died. Oliver & I have seen Tom Jones live in concert seven times so far, & we can't wait to see him live in concert again.💖
I hope you are both very happy together and that you will get to see Tom Jones an eighth time!

What are a few of your favourite things about first cousin ships?
Hmm, interesting question. I guess what I like about first cousin ships is how pretty closely related they are, but not enough to call it incest (in my opinion at least). This I, your parent's sibling's son, this I will be your husband. They may be even raised in same traditions, maybe they are similar in some things, but they are still distant enough for love to blossom naturally. I really enjoy the idea of cousin marriage in fiction. Be it socially approved one or forbidden one. Incest is great, but it can also be horrifying sometimes because of how wrong this is; you don't get that with cousins. You can just enjoy a story without constantly thinking "That would be horrible in real life". And sometimes it's what you need.

I love the romantic movie about the marriage of Charles Darwin and his cousin Emma, Creation. But is there another movie with first cousin romance that I may not have heard of?
Yes, there are movies with first cousin romance. For example:
- Blue lagoon
- Godfather, part III
- The automatic hate
- How I live now
- Mansfield park
etc.

Have you ever thought about dating one of your cousins?
When I was growing up I had a crush on one of my cousins, one I did not see very often and was quite a bit older than me. There was never any flirtation, just a little crush. That was a long time ago!
If I was in a situation where I was interested in my (hypothetical) cousin and he was interested in me, I would totally date him. But we couldn't get married where I live.

My cousin and I are dating. We are from Jamaica. First cousins like us can marry in Jamaica but we think we may move to another country that is more open to the idea of cousin marriage being beautiful. We think either Australia, Canada, or France. We know Australia and France are even more open to the idea of cousin marriage being beautiful but than again we don't speak French and Australia has big spiders and crocodiles. So we need more time to choose.
Fortunately, there are lots of options of countries where cousins are allowed to marry but there's a lot of stigma towards cousin couples all around the world. I'm not sure about France, but in the English speaking world you're likely to find some discomfort from some people. Not everyone, of course. It has been perpetuated a lot my popular culture, unfortunately.
I wish you the best of luck in your relationship and your future!

Bonjour. My name is Chloé. My husband Michele & I are 1st cousins. We are glad not all you Americans are close-minded zombies. You are a open-minded American which is super❣👍
Bonjour!
I think it's wonderful that you were able to marry your cousin.
There's so much ignorance here about cousin marriage, it's really frustrating.

Hello. My name is Wendy. I'm from the United States of America. I'm married to a woman who I am not related to but she and I support cousin couples. I love your blog. Did you know Snoop Dogg and the singer Brandy Norwood who collaborated with him on his love song "Special" are first cousins? I hope they end up together, they would make a cute couple🤗
I had no idea they were cousins! That's so cool and interesting.
Thank you for supporting cousin couples!

Hi from Argentina. My name is Sophia. Are you a Dexter and Debra Morgan shipper too? They are cute don't you think?
Hello!
I love Deb and Dexter! It hurt so much watching Dexter not be able to return Deb's feelings, at least not in the exact way she wanted. I'd like to believe that if they had had more time together, things might have changed.

Do you think Alexander Skarsgard could play the legendary cowboy Jesse James in a new movie or new tv series? Alexander Skarsgard wouldn't mind supporting cousins in love by playing Jesse James who married his first cousin Zerelda since while he was playing Eric on True Blood his character Eric ended up with Eric's vampire sister Nora. If you haven't seen True Blood, Eric and Nora call themselves brother and sister because they were turned by the same vampire.
I like your fancast! I would love to see a movie focusing on Jesse and Zerelda, and if it has Alexander Skarsgard in it, so much the better.
