In fact, if this is to be believed (not a clue how accurate this is), Spain, Portugal, and Italy (as well as Canada and Mexico) have higher rates of incest than any single state in the United States.
This is totally believable, but Europeans don’t think that America is more incestuous than Europe. They think that that part of America is more incestuous than the rest of America.
Good question but I do know that there are a few towns in Vermont populated by solely one family making me quite surprised it’s Alabama that is the incest state and not Vermont I’d gladly take the title of desolate maple state over I fucked my mom state
I mean, yeah, they boiled down all of the SE to Florida and incest lol. I don’t think the map is supposed to be exactly accurate. And they’re not THAT far from Alabama all considered.
I like this kind of statistics, but it is counting only investigated cases? In this cases is common that developed countries with more women’s freedom would appear higher in statistics. If you see only official cases you will see that Sweden has a higher rape by inhabitant than India, Bangladesh, Yemen and Brazil. This is probably not true, and is possible to happen because women are more prone to report rape in Sweden than in these other countries.
Being Portuguese, I can assure you that we’re not doing it with our sisters, though I can’t really say how much marrying with cousins is going on (whilst I don’t know a single person who has done it, I haven’t exactly researched the matter).
I’d just like to point out that some European countries have higher rates of incest than the US.
Cousin marriage is also illegal in much of the US while it is legal in much of Europe.

Specially the incest states
I’m curious if that’s based on truth or just yeehaw gottem
I always heard the “US has more laws against cousin marriage” as “we had to introduce full on laws because y’all wouldn’t stop fucking your cousins!”

Except Alabama has lower rates of incest than many of those countries.
That doesn’t matter. The comparison is Alabama:rest of the USA, not Alabama:Europe
True, I do think it’s weird they chose Louisiana for the incest part, but I guess that’s just their geography skill

I knew there was something funny about those Canadians.
where can I find the notion about Italy, Portugal etc in the link you provided?
I’m surprised it’s criminalized in Texas and Kansas…
