I’m Icelandic, but I live in Canada. This is such a funny question as earlier he said this to me! “When I said you were related to everybody on Iceland I wasn't joking Iceland had the least variety of DNA in the world. Everybody there is related” lol. That kind of threw me right off guard!!!

BlueQ

“There’s an app for that”

Sheryl, it's the same with Pacific Islanders. One of the reasons why my siblings & I all marry outside of our culture 🤦

I wonder how distant the family relationship needs to be in order for them to consider sleeping with someone 😅

Sorry I was trying to say that earlier my uncle said this to me today (read my next post)

Imagine the feeling of having an intimate bedscene with your first cousin and not knowing it.

I find the "hillbilly" jokes quite offensive. I wonder how would you react if it was a remark about a minority

Hilarious...funny, not funny? 🤣

Baron Voski

Why to sleep with a stranger from the beginning? Only animals do that. Humans should be more refined.

Player #19422400, you would be able to make a list of all the eligible women / men available. then go for it . Maybe we should all do it.

Im Icelandic and I wasnt sure what it was but then I remembered.

The app exists but not for incest reasons. That's a common misconception caused by assumptions made by international media when the app was first released. Source: am icelandic and remember this shitshow
