I was at wedding yesterday in Manchester, where I met some of my mums extended family for the first time. Anyhoo, there was this girl, they looking for a rishta for her. She’s my mums phuppos daughters daughter. So what would be the genetic risks to any kids that would be born from a marriage between myself and her? Are they reduced because we are not first cousins? If so, how much? What does that make us, second, third cousins? Docs advise. Thank you.
Re: Question for the Docs
not a doc yet but don’t think there would be any risk. That happens when inbreeding occurs over multiple generation. So go ahead, sign the prenup! Congrats
Re: Question for the Docs
Bit early for that! Thanks for the prompt reply. Food for thought.
Re: Question for the Docs
Am I the only one curious here to find more about the girl? 
Re: Question for the Docs
Apparently. Are you jealous or interested?
Re: Question for the Docs
We all come from Adam ( AS ), so in theory we are all related. One man’s evolution is another man’s mutation.
Re: Question for the Docs
Yeah just totally heads over heels in love with him. 
Re: Question for the Docs
Girls cute, light skinned, nice height, a doc, one year younger then me. Just not sure on the whole cousin thing. Spoke to my brother whose a doc, he was like should be ok, because neither of my grandparents or parents are related nor the girls, but he did advise genetic testing. Meh, shes in London next weekend for the Walima of the wedding I went to, so will see how this develops.
Re: Question for the Docs
Everything sounds good. Best of luck 
Re: Question for the Docs
Just one more question. I am sure you came across a lot of tall, fair, well educated girls before too. So why this one.
I hope no one will accuse me of being jealous/interested again.
Re: Question for the Docs
Asking so many questions because you had so many nakhras before pre nuptial, ye woh, blah blah, and I am 5 years away from marriage and all of a sudden you are contemplating marriage 
Re: Question for the Docs
She’s educated and pretty similar social/wealth level. Plus she’s in and around my age group. The women on my mums side of the family are friggin hot in a non incestuous way! I’ll still do a big background check using a private investigator friend of mine if this develops.
Re: Question for the Docs
ok, cool. good luck
Re: Question for the Docs
My mum and dad actually sat me down yesterday and asked me why I couldn’t get married, I couldn’t think of a reason. Meh, if it happens, it happens. You better believe we still gonna get prenup!
Re: Question for the Docs
You are so crude, but goodluck nonetheless
Re: Question for the Docs
You think your Mum’s family will be ok with the polygraph test, std test and future DNA tests for each child born?
If she’s a similar social/wealth level why would she want to subject herself to all that? The more educated, wealthy and attractive a person is the more options they probably have..
Re: Question for the Docs
If this progresses, I will use a PI friend of mine to give everything I need to know. Polygraph, ummm, will figure that out if I feel it is a necessity.
DNA test - can do that without her ever finding out, so no biggie.
STD, again, if she has been sexually active in the past, I’d be an idiot not to ask for one - I’d be willing to do one also.
She wouldn’t have to subject herself to anything, I am merely an option - which may or may not come to fruition. It was the girls mum harping on about no good rishtay, looking for years, asking about me etc to to my mum. We never said a word. I just happened to be sat on the same table as her and her family so we talked a bit that is all. Only on the drive back to London did my mum reveal what her and the girls mum were harping on about.
Re: Question for the Docs
All is good, except, “light skinned”! why does a well educated progressive desi still think light skinned equates beautiful?
Re: Question for the Docs
I think because everyone in my family is really light skinned so to me it is normal, if that makes sense. I’m not saying darker skinned individuals aren’t pretty, on the contrary. My brother married a darker skin toned girl, she’s gorgeous, but he had to go through the whole “why you marrying a kali for, you’ll have black babies” thing with the extended family. Just don’t want any of that crap to deal with I suppose. Just want someone who will nicely settle in to my family without any snide remarks being slung my way, especially as I have a short fuse for such things.
