What do Indonesian women google most often? (6 photos)

It turned out that for many years in a row in Indonesia during the holidays, the question “can cousins get married” has peaked. Girls who meet their cousins at a family dinner are wondering whether the children from such a marriage will be healthy at all?





How successful everything was, and I didn’t have to change my last name...

Why is this happening?

In Pakistan, such marriages are not uncommon; the poor simply cannot afford the bride price. And if you marry among relatives, all the small fortune will remain within the family, so relatives often organize such arranged marriages, and the brides have to resign themselves.

But in Indonesia, girls Google it themselves! That is, this is their personal desire, are they really all cousins there - hot handsome guys?



Large families are accepted in Indonesia; while you get to know everyone, you get tired

It would be nice to have someone to talk to

The fact is that some Muslim regions of Indonesia are very religious, sometimes excessively so. There are morality police there, and stern women who walk through parks and disperse couples, so that a girl does not dare to stay with a guy one-on-one even in a public place.





The morality police are measuring how short a shirt this girl dares to wear.

This is already considered immoral. Well, how can you chat with a real guy!? There are also sites for communication, but a live meeting and conversation with a real live man “knocks girls off their feet” much more. They are simply hungry for normal communication with guys.

However, guys are the same, talking to someone without social pressure is very relaxing.

So is it safe to marry cousins?

There are doctors and scientists who say not at all, just do a genetic test for pathologies. But others simply suggest looking at the degenerate families of European aristocrats.

And in general, there is strength in diversity, and marriages between cousins greatly increase the chance of passing on some dangerous recessive gene.

What does faith say about marriages between cousins?

This is "mubah". That is, what is not written in the holy book. That is, there is no exact description of the phenomenon, so interpreters have to decide for themselves whether it is allowed or prohibited.

By the way, it’s strange why this was not written down in the Koran; was this question really not even raised in ancient times? Or vice versa - it was so self-evident that they did not even mention the marriage of the cousins.

But it is clearly written who you cannot marry - everyone with whom you have a blood relationship, mothers, uncles, aunts, grandmothers, sisters. And by the method of elimination they deduced what it means that it is allowed. Get married!



In Indonesia you can also have a second wife, the guy seems to be in shock himself. Feed two!

A remarkable statistic is that it is in Muslim countries that such marriages occur most often. This is due to the closed nature of communities, especially in small, immobile communities, where it is difficult to meet other suitors. And faith also imposes strict barriers to independent acquaintance. Parents choose a “proven” option for their children.
