Thanks to three cousin marriages in the distant past, my father and I are also fifth cousins once removed (twice), eighth cousins twice removed, ninth cousins, ninth cousins twice removed, and tenth cousins!
That makes me and my brother also cousins several different ways.
Historically this was quite common amongst all peoples around the world and why the royalty throughout Europe was /is often *whacky* (excessive inbreeding)
It was also another reason, from an evolutionary anthropological, (as well as political) reason, why female members of tribes and slaves were exchanged to promote better gene distribution.

not only was this comment rude but do you have any idea how far back 5th cousins once removed 10th cousins twice removed is?
