Second cousins can marry.
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
First cousins can marry in many places because they are considered to have a close enough blood relationship that potential genetic risks or abnormalities can be assessed before marriage. However, second cousins have a more distant blood relationship, and the risk of genetic disorders decreases significantly, which is why they are generally allowed to marry.
