I don't know-- I'm just glad that most of the women of my day don't look like they are first cousins to an ape!

Well, Cain's wife was his sister (or even niece). There is not an issue with this because the genetic pool was so new and non spoiled that it would not cause problems for people who were very closely related to produce offspring. This is also the reason they lived so long, at least for a few generations.
