My neighbor said to me, "Nelia is my first cousin (the daughter of my mom's brother). I like her and am toying with the idea of marrying her. I was told that i cannot marry her because she is my first cousin. Is this prohibition only social or is it also legal?" How about you? What do you think?

Yes, marriage of cousin is legal and no harm in religious matter too, but little bit blood test if done should be better as marriage between bloodly relative may give birth abnormal child.
