Okay this is weird but I need clarification.
I found out my parents are cousins. ( Their moms’ are sisters).
Does marrying your cousin make you an incest?
What am I considered to be? A child of incest?
Is this gonna affect my future relationship?
Im just fucking done with life wow I didn’t really think things could get worse but here I am

Whoa
It’s not your fault
No, I wouldn’t consider that incest in the first place.
I don’t know what you’d call it but I wouldn’t worry about it if I were you. The idea (fear) of that kind of relationship is the increased likelihood of the offspring being born with a disability. If you dodged that this far I think you’re good.
That said I probably wouldn’t promote it…
yes that’s considered incest, but as others said it’s not your fault. It is common in some societies, but I wouldn’t consider it “normal” but it happens.
Just accept it and don’t let it bother you. Also I’d suggest not sharing this information with people you know as it doesn’t benefit you in any way and some could judge you negatively.
So long as you’re healthy, it’s not a big deal. Just imagine being born as a child of rape-there are worse situations you could be in, again it wouldn’t be your fault…focus on making a better life for yourself-just my suggestion.
Really depends on the community and society you’re brought up in that defines it. Very dependent on which part of the world you’re in. Which, I suppose, goes to show its not black and white.
That’s not that big a deal you don’t need to associate with them. You can disown yourself from your parents and hopefully start a life that is liveable
