From a few years back (BELOW
but the patterns generally remain the same.
The reason why year after year the stats for marriages and child births to IR couples remain the same is because those preferences in Attraction are the same. Those preferences are dictated by the white majority. Those preferences say things if your really paying attention!
For those that arent it goes like this, as far as whom is dating whom and why, mind you, these preferences are for those races and what they prefer WHEN THEY DO DATE-MARRY AND BREED OUT:
Black women prefer black men, with no exceptions.
Black men prefer white women when dating out.
Latino men and Women prefer whites when dating out.
White men prefer Asians when dating out.
White women prefer Latino men when dating out.
Asian women prefer white men.
Asian men prefer Asian Women.
Now this isnt a reflection on the entire groups, just those of that group who seek to date out and when they do whom they are most likely to be attracted to. This isnt going to change and as hispanics disperse across America the numbers are going to get even higher.
In 2007, just 33 percent of Black women ages 30-44 were married, down from 62 percent of the comparable age group in 1970,” the report found. “Among Black men in this age range, just 44 percent were married in 2002, down from 74 percent in 1970.”
The rate for young whites was also down, but not as much as the rate for African Americans. In 2007, 67 percent of white women and 63 percent of white men in the 30-44 age group were married.
Of whites marrying outside their race in 2008, nearly half — 49 percent — married a Hispanic, 18 percent married an Asian, 14 percent married an African American and the remainder married someone from another group.
“Among whites who out-married in 2008, there were different patterns by gender in the race of their spouses,” the report observed. “More than a quarter of white men (27 percent) married an Asian woman, and about 7 percent married a Black woman. In contrast, 20 percent of white women married a Black man, while just 9 percent married an Asian man.”
A slightly higher proportion of white women (51 percent) married a Hispanic than white men (46 percent), the study found.
The 22 percent figure for African-American males outside their race was comparable to the figures for Asian males. Almost a fifth — 19.5 percent — of Asian males took non-Asian brides in 2008. But Asian women were four times more likely than Black women to marry outside their race, with 39.5 percent of them married to someone of a different race or ethnicity.
Among the out-marriage Asian newlyweds, 75 percent married a white person, 12 percent married a Hispanic and only 7 percent married an African American.
The pattern was similar among Hispanics marrying outside their ethnic group. The study reports that 81 percent of Hispanic newlyweds married a white person in 2008. Only 9 percent married an African American and 5 percent married an Asian.
“More than eight in ten (83 percent) Hispanic men who out-married in 2008 married a white spouse, compared to 78 percent of Hispanic women,” the study said. “Among Hispanic female newlyweds who out-married in 2008, some 13 percent married a Black spouse, compared with just 5 percent of Hispanic male newlyweds.”
