This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Second cousins you don't share even blood

Comment:

Second cousin in my country is a cousin from the part not related to any of my parents of one of my cousins. What is weird of that?

For example, my cousin is one of my father's brother son, then my second cousin has to be (otherwise would be a cousin too) the daughter of the cousin's mother's brother.

If I pick a random girl I would be equally related genetically.

In the country this post was most likely typed, your second cousin is the cousin of your mom or dad. That's what's weird of that

The child of the cousin of your mom or dad actually

Oh! I thought that was once removed. Did I get the two mixed up?

Yes. Removed is a different generation on one side. Second cousins are both children of cousins.

Ahh. Thanks for the correction!
