I don't see them voting for idiotic liberal programs in the future that subsidize mediocrity and lazy do-nothing people who try to hide behind some victim status.
Asians, specifically educated Asians, overwhelmingly vote democrat.

There are more interracial marriages in California involving white-hispanic than their are black-white throughout USA. In one state!

Also Lucario, if you take the sum of white/latino marriages out in these states of the southwest, remove the white/latino mixing. Latinos would still have higher rates of interracial marriages than Blacks....from marrying Asians and Blacks.

So heres what I am saying:

1. Latinos make up the bulk of interracial marriages in America. On average 61-67% of all interracial marriages has one hispanic partner.

2. Nearly all of those unions were in the Southwestern USA.

3. Whites only married out in significant portions in the Southwestern USA and Hawaii. Everywhere else there numbers were as low as 9 in ever 1000 (missippi).
What is the point of this thread? Is there something you want non-hispanic whites to admit to you?

Re: White people "marrying out"... I know whites have the lowest rates of out-marriage, but I'm not sure the OP's stats are correct, since I've read in the past that white guys and Asian female rates are very high.
Asian female and White males are very high. The reason the stats dont show a larger share for Asian-White is because only 1 side of those cultures/races are mixing. White males were involved in IR with Asians at a ratio of 80%. Basically 8 out of 10 interracial marriages involving Asians had a female partner. This leaves out the entire male Asian population whom had the LOWEST rates of Interracial mixing. So the numbers are low because only Asian females are mixing.

That is not the case with Latinos/Whites which is nearly evenly split with white husband/latino wife, white wife/latino husband, which is why the stats show a large share of unions between the groups.

The point was to break down the interracial marriage stats and show it for what it really is. A latino affair, with latinos doing the mixing. Which should not be the case at all with latinos making up only 17% of the population.

61-67% of all interracial marriages in America yearly involve hispanics. WHY? my question is a why as opposed to a point. I am looking for reasons. No way should latinos be making up the lions share of IR yearly. Its impossible, UNLESS, latinos are :

1. more likely to entertain IR.
2. Everyone else is more likely to entertain IR with a latino.

Again I come back to WHY that is.

They are also Hispanic mens kryptonite. Especially during their formative years of 16-28 years.

(Don't know where that would be...)

But again, a marriage between a Latino and a white, a Latino and a black, and a Latino and an Asian are not necessarily "interracial," but "cross cultural."

Sometimes they're interracial, sometimes they are not.

Growing up on the border, I dated a lot of Latina young women growing up.. It kinda made the Latino young men kinda upset, but I have no issue here.... Most of them were great.
