It depends, a very large clans can actually have a safe and perfectly legal internal marriages. Even in our very real world there can be marriages inside one family, the best example is British Royal family - Philip and Elisabeth are related.

He may, but he also (at least before becoming all dark and "I will be enemy of the whole world") wanted to rebuilt his clan. And even after all this sharingan evolution he still needs woman to do that :)

Anyway - Kishimoto already shown us twice (at least) how little he cares about relations between boys and girls. Minato and Kushina got together after damsel in distress cliche cause it was unimportant how they become couple, only that they did. And second Asuma with Kurenai, where to be honest Sarutobi could marry anyone, even ramen girl, and it wouldn't change a thing as the only plot important was the fact that he had a child (it was essential for Shikamaru development). When Kishimoto was done with Shika then mother and child went out of picture until chapter 700.
