Well those situations aren't really about consent. There are good birth defect reasons for dismissing those types of relationships immediately.

Stop being hypocritical <font color=maroon>Why can an uncle and niece, both over 21, not give consent to marry?</font> That particular notion is much more common than you probably think, and not just in the Smokies. In general, if marrying your cousin doesn't appeal to you, or marrying someone of a different race doesn't appeal to you, or if marrying someone of the same sex doesn't appeal to you, then don't do it. Just remember it's your own hangup and not some law of nature. discover.com
