Endogamy
The requirement to marry someone who belongs to his or her own social group, family, clan, or tribe.
Question: How can I use endogamy in a sentence?
Answer: His community's tradition of endogamy created a closed society.
Question: Sociology 101 Q: Is there any difference between endogamy and homogamy relating to patterns of marriage?
Answer: Only slightly. Endogamy dictates marrying within a specific tribe or social circle, meaning that circle can constantly expand. It may not expand very quickly (or at all) in a tribal atmosphere, but taking the term in a more modern sense, a social circle could always invite new members. Examples could be as simple as the royal family of any given country staying within their circle of lords and ladies. It does limit ones choices through the generations, but maybe that is another reason for marrying into another country's royal family. But I can see your point, that eventually it seems the gray area between endogamy and homogamy will be crossed if these patterns persist. I did read once that you only have a 1% higher chance for birth defects when breeding with your first cousin as opposed to a complete stranger. I'm not recommending it, don't get me wrong, but there are worse things.

Question: endogamy and exogamy are they applicable even today ?
Answer: Your question itself shows your meturity. Well.One of our country!s major problem is Hindu caste system.It is a stratified system with brahmins are at the top and chamars are at the bottom.To maintain the system inter caste marriage should be curbed by religious ethos ( Bhagavad gita).
The caste is based on endogamy.That is one can marry only within the caste.Till now only 0.5% people violated the age old customs. So our society is consist of so many endogamic groups, maintaining the customs ( Food/dress/residential locality/gods/marriage and funeral styles/ and last division of work.The effect is narrowness in every group.This affect our polity also.Our national parties (Congress-BJP-and the communists) are maintaing this age old system of endogamy either overtly or covertly, in the name of our age old " culture' etc...In India there is no PEOPLE only group of endogamic groups.

Question: My friend says that endogamy is frown upon in Japanese Culture is this true?
sorry he ment exogamy
Answer: Is that marrying outside your culture I am guessing? (since polygamy = many spouses and all that, with exo meaning outside...)
I would say yes, it is frowned upon--you do not see too many mixed Japanes marriages.
Inbreeding for the win!
Question: Does section 7 read with section 29(1) of The HMA,1955 provide gotra exogamy and caste and religious endogamy? HMA=Hindu Marriage Act
Answer: Section 7 of the Hindu Marriage Act,1955 provides for Ceremonies for a Hindu marriage whereas section 29(1) of the Act provides validation of a marriage solemnised between Hindus before the commencement of the Act i.e. 18th May,1955 if took place between members of same gotra or pravara or belonging to different religions, castes or sub-divisions of the same caste.
What this section provides that irrespective of same gotra or pravara etc of both parties to marriage if the marriage otherwise is valid because all conditions as provided under section 5 of the Act, it will not be void under the Act.
The different religions as mentioned in section 29(1) stands for all these religions namely, Sikhs, Buddhist, Jains along with Hindus which are included under the Act by virtue of section 2 but these will exclude people belonging to religions such as Christians, Muslims, Jews and Parsis.
What the section 29(1) with regard to 'different religions' means that marriage between a Hindu and any of these namely a Sikh or Buddhist or Jain shall be valid even if that was solemnised before commencement of the Act as it is after its commencement.
Similarly the difference of caste or sub-division of the same caste shall not invalidate the marriage.
What in short the Hindu Marriage Act,1955 stands is more modern in approach as it allows inter-caste, same gotra, same pravara, inter-religious marriages however in order to safeguard the future progeny from any genital dis-order the concept of "sapinda relationship" as well "degree of prohibited relationship" had been brought in and it has been specifically provided that any marriage between two people within these relationship shall be void under section 5 and 11 of the Act.
The two persons who may be of same gotra but not within these above mentioned relationship can marry and their marriage will be valid under the HMA,1955. This simple thing is not being understood by few organisations and even learned people holding degree of law from Indian university than nothing can be done for them.
Question: Do you think that endogamy is a mild form of racism?
endogamy=marrying inside your race ( you can also speculate the word includes dating)
Answer: I am not sure that endogamy is a form of racism, since they do not practice it because of their dislike for other cultures.
But who knows..... perhaps it just depends on the individuals?
Question: What are some quotes talking about woman in the 1800's? More specifically: marriage, beauty, behavior, education, love, endogamy, and legal rights
Answer: They are all roughly the same height when lying down.
Question: would it help to ask the redfining family question differently? i doubt it, but here goes anyway.
think you're smarter? try this on for size:
why is the trend toward single parenthood and blended families trending upward rather than downward if 'marriage' is so desireable for gay men and lesbians?
consider a situation from pop culture: in the tv series, 'queer as folk,' a gay man and a lesbian are biological parents of a child, yet each parent is in a relationship with a different partner. how does 'traditional' marriage serve the best interest of that child?
now consider: the male sex drive is a biological imperative toward rather rampant endogamy. how is 'gay marriage' a good thing if it runs counter to a man's biology?
before you address either, consider both situations together why is it a good thing, if children are not the primary reason for marriage, why should the state be involved in the marriage business to begin with? why give up that sort of control over one's relationships to a social norm?
forgive the punctuation above.
the questions being considered together are: 1) how would gay marriage be a good thing for children in the instance above; 2) if pair-bonding is not a NATURAL norm for gay men, how is marriage a good thing if 3) not even straight marriages are fulfilling THEIR natural function as stable environments for children?
now that 15 minutes have passed, notice i didn't even bring up the question of divorce. those of you 'smarter' readers who've studied history should be able to look to the history of marriage and divorce in western society (just watch 'the tudors' on showtime if you don't actually read), to realize the way those institutions were constructed, and the political constructions they still serve.
why is the phrase, "it takes a village to raise a child" so roundly ridiculed by "the right" in American politics? why is polygamy such a bugaboo for both sides of the issue when discussing 'gay marriage?' is there something inherently WRONG with polygamy, other than the fact that it actually mimics (yes) the natural male sex drive?
are you beginning to get this yet?
um... i get it. you think that anyone who expresses his sexuality in a way other than in pairs like dutiful children is somehow 'unclean.'
how sad for you.
so far the term, 'ad hominem' applies roundly to the answers here.
that's not 'angry.' those are my eyebrows addressing my near-sightedness.
where is the anger in my query? there is certainly anger in the answers.
why is there hostility toward the notion that one might actually address the male biological imperative in a manner that neither supresses it nor allows it to be used as an excuse for abdicating responsibility when looking toward a more RATIONAL way for constructing social policy?
isn't polygamy esssentially a commitment to multiple sexual partners? again, is there something essentially WRONG with polygamy?
and nobody is addressing the question as asked: if children are not the primary reason for marriage, why does the government need to sanction and provide any rights whatsoever to TWO people who decide they want to live their lives together? isn't a more RATIONAL way to deal with the issue of children to make biological fathers responsbilble to their children up to the age of majority no matter what the marital circumsatnces, and to get government out of the business of "marriage" altogether?
why are you all so hostile toward those who don't think marriage is such a great idea? why are you ascribing to me such attributes as immaturity and animal behavior simply because i'm pointing out truisms that are staring you right in the face? seems like there are too many people here who need to feel better about themselves by making others seem... well.. immoral.
by the way, and for the record: i haven't had sex in, what... six months now? i did live with a guy once for more than 12 years. he died. (don't offer any false sympathy, please) while he was alive, we took it for granted that each of us would have sex with other men, and we did so, together and separately. and since neither of us expected the other to fulfill and 'complete' us as human beings, we weren't reliant on each other financially either (this is often a problem for stay at home moms - or dads - when marriages don't work out, but adults in general should be self-sufficient by definitition). and after the first three sessions with a therapist about certain personal circumstances, she said to me, "this is the point where most therapists would say 'it's time to talk about intimacy issues,' but frankly, you don't have any."
some people posting messages here might want to talk to their own therapists about something called, "projection."
being angry with me and speculating about my self gratification is moot. it has nothing to do with the issues of legality at hand.
two other points: being angry is not a bad thing. it's the starting line from which we effect change in our lives.
and as for the notion of selfishness, and self-gratification vs. raising children, well there you go, dear, you've just proved my point about why TG's who consider themselves straight, or involved in 'correcting' a biological disorder are not really part of the gay and lesbian community, per se. you've made the same argument srtaight people do, offerred the same criticicsm: GAY PEOPLE ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN SELF-GRATIFICATION, WHEREAS STRAIGHT PEOPLE ARE MORE INTERESTED IN CHILDREN.
Answer: Your question is extremely interesting and I agree that men are hard-wired to procreate and move on rather than spend time in relationships -- although I would hardly use the "Tudors" as an historically accurate show. It's so full of inacuraccies it's not even funny.
Getting back to the subject of men as procreators, men do tend to prefer the company of other men (as women do other women). The two groups used to get together to share food and to have sex. After that, they'd split back up. Men don't care for children well as men don't really care for children that aren't their own and children have a tendancy to break easily. Case in point : all the baby shaking abuse cases going on across the country by men left to care for their girlfriends' children.
Where do men get the power to be able to drive themselves this way? Patriarchal power throught the millenia also internalized within the religious organisations making them twice as impowered with themselves. God the Father, God the Son, no God the Mother, therefor men again become *the* sole ruler in the family and have stayed so; just like their primative ancestors have yet not moving away after procreating.
I think the homosexual male is far better to the country to actually take himself away from the breeding thereby reducing the chance for any abuse on mother or child. Gay marriage actually increases the "good" for the child as both sets of parents are actually calmer. The old adage "It takes a village to raise a child" becomes a positive for the Gay-raised children as they are open to more possibilities and far more cultures than traditionaly raised children with the chances of far less abuse.
*please forgive any spelling errors, the spell-check doesn't seem to be working. I'll recheck later.

Question: love doctors, i need help with my situation!?! His family is against our relationship. what shall i do? I’m seeing this guy for a couple of months now. I never intended to get serious at him coz of my studies but now I have fallen completely in love with him coz he didn't give me any reason not to. At first I was doubting his feelings but as time goes by I really felt that he’s truly in love with me. He’s foreigner ,7 years older than me and he already have a stable work. While me I’m still a university student who have big obligation to her family.
He ask me to marry him after i finish my studies but I explained to him that I need four years since i have to work hard after I graduate to help my family. Since he loves me he said he’s willing to wait.
Lately he suddenly stopped seeing me.
When he showed up, he explained he was having family matters.
He told his family (who are in abroad) about our relationship. He’s mom strongly refuse to accept us because they already want him to marry someone---his cousin. (Yes, endogamy. which is part of their family culture) He strongly argued with his parents.
He told me that he'd fight his parents just for me. Several days past he’s problem became even worst. Now their whole clan his against our relationship. They don’t want him to marry someone from another country. And they all insist on him marrying his cousin.
I feel terribly bad for him since his torn between two stones hitting on each other. Now,he told me that he can’t live peacefully without his family blessing and he can’t also live happily without me.
I don’t know what to do ='(
he loves me but his entire family is against us.
I love him but right now I can’t commit myself completely to him since I still have school and my family to support.
I was thinking of ending our relationship.
I know someone has to let go..im sure his family wont..so I think it will have to be me.
I don’t want to be the reason for him to cut ties with his family. I fully understand how much he loves his family.
I love him but I have to let go.(i don't want him to face more difficulties)
If you understand what am saying right now..i want to know..
am i doing the right thing? is this
the right thing to do? I need an advice.thanks for taking me seriously.
Answer: If you really love him you will tell him you don't love him anymore and that he gets on your nerves and you never want to see him again.
That way he can move on and will never wonder what might have been. People that care that much about what their family thinks will never be happy going against the family wishes and his family will never accept you.
So you can spend the rest of your life with him and see him unhappy because he misses his family or leave him in a way where he thinks there is no chance with you ever and let him be happy. You will be able to move on too with time.
Question: Is Evolution making us DUMBER?? What I mean is - if selection prefers endogamy, and the endogamous are unrestrained in their breeding - and they remain willingly unaware of intellectual value - is it possible, as this short video illustrates so very humorously, that evolution is BACKFIRING?!?!
http://www.glumbert.com/media/idiocracy
I'd really like everyone's (Atheist and Christian and Muslim and Jewish, etc) responses to this!!!
It's actually really scary!
What made me think of this is the sudden rash of inane reality TV and shows like, "HURL" and "Jerry Springer" which are just so stupid!
Wow! Jesussav...
You sure worship a mean God!
Answer: I'm waiting for scientists to evolve......get smart enough to understand that God is right........that then would be proof of evolution.

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
Question: If Knanaya people don't intermarry, then why do they look Malayalee and speak Malayalam? The Knanayas claim they are the descendants of 72 Syro-Aramaic Jewish families who migrated from Edessa (Now Şanlıurfa), Turkey) the first city state that embraced Christianity in the Roman Empire, as well as from Jerusalem, Israel, Syria, to Malabar (present day south Indian state of Kerala) coast in AD 345, under the leadership of a prominent merchant Knai Thomman. They claim to practice "strict" endogamy, only marrying inside the community and excommunicating people who marry outside of their "ethnic" community. Therefore one would assume they would at least look middle eastern till the present day.
Answer: Because they are not descendents of those Aramaic families like they claim.
Question: What is the difference between a prescriptive marriage and a preferential marriage? i thought both were same(actually it is not) which includes cross cousin mariages,parallel cousin marriages(among arabs),sorrorate,levirate,endogamy,exogamy.How can we classify these preferential and prescriptive marriages ?? Help plz !
Answer: "Prescriptive" basically means that it is a type that is required. "Preferential" means that it is a type that is preferred, but there is some choice in the matter. For example, in many societies, there was a prescriptive rule of exogamy. That is, it was considered as bad as incest to marry someone within the group, whether the group was defined as a village, or a tribe, or whatever. The person of marriageable HAD to go outside that group. But then there might also be prefential rules about where outside that group the person should go. That society might say that a woman should preferentially marry her cross cousin in the next village over. So she would try to find a male cousin who was the son of her father's sister or her mother's brother, of the right age. But there might not be someone of the right sex and right age, you see. Since this rule was only preferential, she could pick maybe a second cousin, which wasn't quite as good. But as long as he came from the next village over and not her own village, she was still following the prescriptive rule, which said the marriage had to be exogamous. You see?
Some societies, though, would have prescriptive endogamy -- couples had to marry within the group. Say, the Amish have a rule that they must marry other Amish. Or Jews are supposed to marry other Jews. These are relatively large groups, though. Then there are other preferential rules, like the sororate, levirate, parallel or cross coursin marriages and so on, which may or may not be available, depending on circumstances.
Question: What does the Bible say about Endogamy? Endogamy is marrying within the same group or community.
Answer: Salam.
The bible is in support of Endogamy. Both books of Ezra and Nehemiah have a theme of condemnation of those who do not marry within their own. See Ezra 9:1-3, 14; 10:1-44 and Nehemiah 13:13-31,3 and in new testament 2 Corinthians 6:14-18. It states don't be unequally "yoked". Hope this helps :)
Question: Is it still a common practic for Jewish men to marry their nieces ? I hear it is considered in the Talmud to be a meritorious match (B. Yevamot 62b). By the late medieval period, however, at least some Jewish legal authorities wished to end or limit the practice. For example, Sefer Hasidim declares that a marriage between an uncle and niece "will not be successful," an apparent effort to discourage the practice.
Permitting and encouraging marriages between close relatives is not at all unique to Judaism. Many cultures regard different forms of endogamy (in-marriage) as permissible and desirable. (In witness to this, consider the frequent marriage of close relatives in royal families.) American law is less accepting of marriages between first cousins, for example, but, does it still happen ?
What about Jerry Lee Lewis , as an example ?
Answer: No it's not
It's common for christian fundies in the bible belt to do that.
Question: In your opinion, is there a flaw in Jewish marriage customs? I'm not asking this question to offend anyone. I'm studying marriage from different religious aspects, and this question was brought up in class.
Do you think there's a flaw? Some ideas that were brought up were:
- permittance of easy divorce
- a patriarchal-based life shared by the couple
- rejection of unmarried sex
- permittance of concubine(s)
- rejection of contraceptive sex
- requirement of endogamy (Jews marrying Jews only)
Any opinions regarding the above topics would be great. Thanks!
Answer: permittance of easy divorce.......
i don't know much on that subject. Divorce is never easy and far to many christians take it too lightly.
patriarchal based.....well they are following their beliefs set up according to the will of the God of this universe. If they believe in Him then they follow the principles whether they like it or not.
rejection of unmarried sex? What? That's a "bad" thing? Fornication has caused nothing but trouble since the beginning...diseases, unwanted pregnancies, separation from God. i see no value in fornication.
permittance of concubines? don't know where in the mosaic law where it gives permission. Maybe i'm ignorant on the subject but i don't think it gives permission but that God tolerated the sin for whatever reason. Abraham was pre-mosaic law and Solomon went against the will of God on this subject.
rejection of contraceptive sex......i don't know where this is addressed other than the verse where what's his face spilled his seed on the ground. But that addressed a lie he told the widow of his brother and his bride that he would give her a child and then recanted on the deal. He was performing the role of kinsman redeemer. He could have rejected it but chose to go along with it and then break the law by not providing her a child in his brothers name and redeemings his property.
endogamy...again, God's law...jews may not like it and have seemed to violate it enough in the past, but I can see why that would be bad. How many nations have attempted to breed a nation out of existance through rape and intermarraige. Within a few decades you could breed a group out of existance by intermarraige and rape. God had to keep Israel seperate and distinct because they were his chosen ppl. God knew the danger of being absorbed into the cultural background. Look at America. I have native american background but in such a tiny ammount...you can't even tell. I am very fair and freckled. The only thing I can see in myself that is native american is slightly ashen brown hair. My grandfathers mother was full blooded native american (not sure the tribe or group as she had been kidnapped from Florida and adopted by another native american family from Ohio so no one knows for sure exactly where she came from or what tribe she hailed from) anyways she married a french man...God knew what He was doing.
Question: can someone check my grammar? Antonio which belong to the higher status of society was commited to marry someone with the same kind of his status. But Guia who belong to the lower status fall in love to him. If Antono will marry Guia this will be unsuitable for those society that practice endogamy in which members of society were require to marry someone from the same status.
Answer: Antonio who holds a high status in society, was expected to marry someone belonging to the same social class as him. However Guia who is from the lower class falls in love with him. If Antonio is to marry Guia it would be seen as unsuitable / inappropriate for those that practice endogamy within his social class. This is when members of society reject those from other ethnic backgrounds or social groups ;and require everyone to be married to those whom they feel share the same status.
