I wouldn't do it. Purpose will always out value the heart when it comes to marriage.
Why do you think select European royal houses dominated for so long? Marriage and having children is a logical thing: passion is for flings and one night stands.

You have to be joking? Those inbred morons survived by abdicating rule to massive bureaucracies. Capitalism was the doom of the nobility.

To illustrate my point... the Hapsburgs in particular had a deformed jaw due to inbreeding to the point where some of them could not close their mouths, could not eat, or even speak properly.

Listen to me... it is VERY good to marry into other groups from time to time to prevent recessive traits from destroying your overall gene pool of your family.

The Habsburgs today look very healthy, and they've continued to rely on their policies of only marrying within the royal houses.

Obviously inbreeding is not good, but marrying only intelligent, balanced women of good family should still be a man's priority.

I repeat that marriage should be logical thing, weighting the girls' family as heavily as her youth. Then again if you can't control your urges then maybe marriage isn't for you.
