Can people with the same surname get married?

1. Can people with the same surname get married? "Never marry with the same surname" is a custom left over from the feudal era in China. The so-called "men and women share the same surname, but their origins are not uncommon" has some truth, but it cannot be generalized. In ancient China, the marriage system forbade close relatives, consanguinity and surnames to marry, because the conditions at that time could not have a correct and complete understanding of the problem of prenatal and postnatal care, so all marriages of consanguinity and surnames were forbidden. Now the Civil Code (202 1 to 1 implementation) clearly stipulates that "lineal blood relatives and collateral blood relatives within three generations" are prohibited from getting married. The civil code of our country just doesn't allow close relatives to get married. The same surname and close relatives are two different things. The Civil Code clearly stipulates the freedom of marriage: as long as one is single and reaches the legal age of marriage, both parties are willing and there is no illness that should not be married. If you are not a close relative, it is completely scientific and legal to get married with the same surname. Whether they have the same surname or not, and whether the eight characters are consistent or not, as long as the two sides really love each other and are tolerant and sincere, they can live happily. It is wrong for anyone to stop you from getting married for any reason. Second, the disadvantages of marrying people with the same surname There is an old saying in China that "people with the same surname are blind, and their lives are not surprising", which means that if people with the same surname get married, their descendants will not prosper. This statement made sense in ancient times when the economy was backward, the traffic was blocked, the population mobility was small, and people with the same surname were concentrated, because at that time, people with the same surname were often close relatives and blood relatives according to biological laws. This kind of consanguineous marriage will affect the health of future generations and is not conducive to improving the quality of the population. However, with the development of social economy and transportation, the population base has doubled and the mobility has also increased greatly. Today, it is very rare for people with the same surname to meet people with the same family or close blood ties. Third, will marriage with the same surname affect the health of the next generation? As long as they are not within five generations of the same family, they can be combined. You need to judge according to your own situation. If it is only a family with the same surname, this situation will not affect your marriage. I suggest you confirm your family relationship. The impact on future generations. Under normal circumstances, no blood relationship will not affect future generations. According to the above introduction, we know that, legally speaking, there is no provision that the same surname does not get married, so not getting married with the same surname can only be said to be a custom in some areas, and legally speaking, it has no legal effect. Therefore, even men and women with the same surname can finally be registered as legal couples as long as they meet the conditions stipulated in the Civil Code.
