Chill it’s a yaoi and a work of fiction. Most people either don’t care either way, come for the smut/sex, or have a fetish. It’s fiction not real life, that’s where it ends. Just like the angle and the dog, it’s fiction end of story so. But thanks for the information regardless
Since this comment is a month old, perhaps you should take notice of the fact that all the comments at that time were freaking out that they were cousins. I'm not upset about it, so your "chill" advice is pointless, as well as incorrect, as quite a few people obviously did care. It's simply information correcting people's incorrect statements on sheltered ignorance.
Although it's generally considered weird and not commonly done regardless, the risk that first cousins have a kid who inherits a genetic disease is 4-7%. For the general population, it’s 3-4%. The risk does increase if it continues multiple times in a family tree.
It is legal in Canada, quite a bit of the states, and Japan (as well as other countries) because genetically it's the closest that doesn't really matter in the health of a child. And if you can't procreate, it doesn't matter at all.
Always so interesting where people pointlessly draw a line at inclusionism. It's literally the same pointless basis for homophobia. ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
