After you reminded me of that as well, I had to look it up, because, what kind of cousin have we been talking about this whole time? Second, third cousin hopefully? Nope. She was his first cousin. I’m not so impressed with his sex life anymore. Gross.
A cousin is taken as fair game in many countries, health risks in children are low. Better get tested first to make sure. Many cousins are not in close contact through their childhood, so they don’t feel sibling-like wierdness.
Some people like sex, others don’t. People with autism/adhd often find ourselves in positions where we’re comfortable violating social norms, whether that’s deciding that you’d actually rather spend all your time on electrical engineering and pigeons instead of having a family, or being a bum who can’t stick with a job long enough to have consistent housing but also lacks the impulse control to not pursue all the sex they want.
It’d be nice to line up his quotes on the subject in chronological order, since it seems like the last one would be about how his infidelities were his biggest failings in life. People say a lot of stuff to rationalize their behaviour while they are still doing it. But with time and space, can put together that the problem wasn’t that other people “chose” to feel hurt about it. They will always be hurt if it came by surprise and you didn’t have consent first. Hell, even in proper polygamous relationships with as much consideration and communication as possible, it can be a challenge to not hurt anyone.

I knew he wasn’t monogamous, but I didn’t know he tried to start a polycule until I read that. Interesting!
Makes up theory of relativity. Marries cousin.

Many of the great geniuses fell to one or the other extreme of sexual activity. Might be related to neurodivergence but that’s me speculating
Plays into the autism/ADHD as a superpower narrative instead of the “some people like sex some don’t” narrative, pass.

Classic Scientist trying to offer comfort…
“Listen, I’m sorry your marriage fell apart, but it was the most likely outcome…”
“Also, you wanna have sex?”
Oppenheimer too
