    >I remember standing in my grandparents’ hallway 18 years ago, searching Einar’s name on Íslendingabók. My mother and grandfather were peering over my shoulder at the computer, waiting for the family tree to load. I felt more curious than worried. Unless there is a huge family secret, it’s rare to find out that your boyfriend is your half-sibling. Luckily, Einar and I only share a great-great-great-great-grandfather.

    Og um hvað ertu að tala? Nákvæmlega ekkert af þessu hljómar ólíklegt?

    >I looked up Einar’s ancestry two months into our relationship. We use a website called Íslendingabók to prevent accidental incest. The Icelandic population is so small that I didn’t log on to it thinking: is Einar my relative? It would be hard to meet an Icelandic man who is not at least slightly related to me. Instead, the question was: how closely related are we?

    Kannski ofsögum sagt að *tilgangur* Íslendingabókar sé þessi, en þú verður að gera þér grein fyrir að þú ert að lesa kynlífsdálk Guardian.

  2. Æ það tékka allir á þessu.

    Rétt eins og ef það væri til kynsjúkdómabók þá myndu allir tékka á því. Í því samhengi er skárra að fá klamma en að hlusta á mömmu og tengdó tala um sameiginlegar ættir við hvert tækifæri.
