Ok, a guy who has a brother, now a girl who has a sister. The guy and girl get married and have a kid. So the sister and brother of the married couple are in-laws, what if they hook up and get married? Would that be weird?

Not unless one of the couples runs into a problem.

No, that would be fine. I know a couple like that. Genetically, the cousins are more like siblings! It's weird, they look and act the same. There is nothing saying that a brother-in-law and sister-in-law (in your discription) can't get married. There is no blood relation there. It's fine. Makes for a better holiday, no more having to decide which family to see, you'd kind of eliminate 2 sets right there!

Not at all. The qualities that attract us to our spouses can often be found in our parents. How often do siblings from different households marry each other? How about this, very often in the past first cousins often married (hence the phrase kissing cousins). This is particularly true on the frontier where suitable spouses were in short supply (I imagine this probably accounts for the high rates of mental illness on the frontier as well).

I know two brothers who married sisters. Not weird, but the family reunions are kind of small, because everybody's related to the same people!

No, it happens quite often. Nothing weird about it. Now, I have heard of identical twin sisters who married identical twin brothers. When they had children, the kids were biological cousins, but because they shared the same DNA, they were genetic brother/sisters.
How cool is that?!

I know someone who's dad and uncle married two sisters.
Nothing wierd about that.

ok, lets give these people names say sara and stacy are sisters
and say tom and theo are brothers. if stacy and tom get married, sara and tom are in-laws, and stacy and theo are in-laws, but sara and theo are NOT in-laws, although they would share a mutual neice/nephew. But it wouldnt be weird its just siblings marrying into the same family.

No, just a close family. It's just like a set of twins marrying another set of twins, just no twins are involved here.
