Not many, but it is a difference of being allowed and being the general norm.

Sorry, correct number is 26 states where cousins are allowed to marry.

1 in 1000 American marriages is between cousins. In Japan, it's 4 in 1000.

When Jerry Lee Lewis married his 13 year old cousin, the outrage wasn't over the cousin part, it was about the age.
