Harry Potter Domanda
How did the wizarding society look at incest?
In the libri there are clear indication to inbreeding between the pure-blood families. But technically they were "forced" to inbreed as they wanted to keep the blood "pure". So them inbreeding doesn't yet say much about how did the wizarding society generelly think of the matter. Especially as most of it wasn't obsessed with blood-purity.
Also, inbreeding with one's own cousins o second-cousins is significantly different from doing so with one's own parent o a sibling, which cases were never on any level in the books.
It's been a while since I read the books, so does anyone know if they (or Rowling outside the books) has ever addressed this matter about the wizarding society?
As in, how would've most of the wizarding society think of cases of inbreeding, especially those closer than just coisins?
It's hard to guess because the wizarding society was so black-and-white and prejudiced on many things until Voldemort's final fall. Yet on the other hand that society was quite messed up...So I think it's 50/50 chance between approval and disapproval of incestuous matters. And I'm looking for anything official on it.
