Intro to Cultural Anthropology
Exogamy refers to the practice of marrying outside of a specific social group, clan, or community. This practice encourages alliances and connections between different groups, often aiming to avoid inbreeding and promote genetic diversity. In many cultures, exogamy is not just a personal choice but is shaped by social norms and customs that dictate the acceptable boundaries for marriage.
