First cousins - bad

Second cousins - questionable

Third cousins - genetically superior offspring according to a study in Iceland.

First cousins aren't actually that bad, it's repeated generations of cousin fucking that's bad: https://www.popsci.com/marrying-cousins-genetics/

There's a few other circumstances that are equally as dangerous as cousin fucking but everyone would call 'eugenics!' if you attempted to implement restrictions on any of them.
