Legal definition of incest:
"sexual intercourse between persons so closely related that they are forbidden by law to marry"
So it depends on the laws of that state or country to define which relationships are incest. If state "A" allows cousins to marry, then that relationship is not incest for state A. If state "B" does not allow cousins to marry, then that relationship is incest for state B.
Personally, the idea of incestuous relationships is disgusting to me, but it is accepted in some cultures. Ugh!
