Ah yes my apology I meant "half". Seems I slipped there, well yes it is blood or half.Gitsnik said:Step? I recall a few years back seeing a step- couple getting married in the US, one would assume they consumate. I suspect that you meant "half" (shared blood parent), but I wanted to clarify.Gokuofuin said:First Degree is your Mother, Father, Blood/Step Brother/Sister.Gitsnik said:I'm no statistician but that makes it seem more like it's safer to hit your cousin.

- first-degree relatives is 1 in 2
What I'm getting at is, what constitutes "first degree" relative?
