More than half of births to American women younger than 30 are outside marriage, research has found.
And across all ages, a staggering four in ten women are not married when they have children.
The data shows the fastest growth in the past 20 years is among white women in their 20s with some college education but no four-year degree.
The reason why I put this is I saw another thread that claimed that 70% of black women have children out of wedlock. Yet the trend now in the USA is most babies whatever race they are is they they were born out of wedlock parents.
When someone today tells me they have kids and aren't married, I ask them how their little b*stards are doing. They get indignant of course. I explain it's not the kids fault.

I pointed this out numerous times. Since the early 60's, the rate of white OOWL births has risen FASTER than the rate for blacks.
OOWL births are given as the CAUSATION of most of black Americas socioeconomic dysfunction, and is used to discredit the role of the accrued impact of racism. Yet, if OOWL births is the cause of socioeconomic dysfunction in humans, why has not such dysfunction risen in the white community proportionately with the rise of OOWL births since the 60's? Why has not the white murder rate, poverty rates and the like risen to level much higher than in the early 60's when only a small percentage of whites had children out of Wedlock? Why is OOWL birth a causation for black dysfunction but OOWL births do not produce similar rates of dysfunction in whites? Granted, its true that the black rate is much higher, but if OOWL is truly the culprit then the significant rise in this behavior in whites, since the 60's, should be reflected in a significant rise in crime, poverty and the like, since the 60's, for whites.

Nearly three quarters of black children are born outside marriage compared with half of Latino babies and 29 per cent of whites.
If your reasonsing for making the thread is simply to counter the "black wedlock" thread, I think you've got a heavy lift to even make a valid comparison. White people have a LONG way to go to catch up with other races.
