Thoughts?

Yay.

No.
I think it's a bit weird. /.\ -
Bad for the health of any offspring. Genetic mutations come with inbreeding. The relationship itself doesn't really bother me.
-
^^^ That is an old cliche that has been proven to be incorrect, bloods of the same type does not cause genetic mutations of any sorts
-
Cliche? Hardly the correct term to use.
Now I must go and research. -
What I'm seeing is that inbreeding increases a child's chance of inheriting two recessive copies of the same recessive trait which, if positive, isn't a problem. But in the case of two relatives who were unaffected by a disease an ancestor had because each only had one copy of the recessive trait for that disease, there's a pretty good chance the kid will end up with it. I wouldn't say this disproves me.

*I shall continue looking into the subject, though.

**inheriting two copies of the same recessive trait
Sorry, I'm done now. -
I promise I'll read all of that later, but I'm in class right now.

And btw, I believe Cliche means a phrase or opinion that is overused and betrays a lack of original thought, I mean I could be wrong but...

You have mama and father. Father has a recessive gene which leads to kidney failure.
They give birth to 2 kids.
There is a 1 in 4 chance they both have this gene.
If they reproduce the kid has a 1 in 16 chance of kidney failure.
The risk is reasonably small, but why not just make the chance even smaller by going out into a diverse gene pool? -
^That's the kind of information I'm taking from.
I was taught that the inbreeding affected the royal family in a very different way.
Way to copy the exact definition from Google. That is precisely what it means, and it doesn't work well with what you were trying to communicate. -
I don't have a problem with it, that's just one of those morals society created for like no reason like what even
Genetic stuff I have no clue about,
