"75 percent of Black women marry before they turn 35" report says

[BaggerofTea]

This is a good sign, black will stay black. My greatest fear is for the black race in America to end up looking like mulattos in a couple generations.

70% unmarried stat was based on a small age range mostly in the 20s and i believe even teens.

bw do get married later in life, mostly 30s/40s. so yes i can believe it jumps from 30% to 75% from 20s to 30s age range

Black women with a postsecondary degree have more of a chance to marry than a white woman who dropped out of high school, The New York Times reported. Black women with a personal annual income of more than $75,000 are more than twice as apt to get married as white women living in poverty.


Why is the article comparing black women to high school dropout trailer-park beckys? How is that even relevant?

Word. I hope no one is applauding that otherwise they have some low ass expectations. That shyt is insulting.

there will definitely be a mulatto class in America within a generation or two.

Guaranteed.

Thats why REAL black people need to get our money up and our political game in order - ASAP.

I’m automatically skeptical of the overwhelming majority of studies and research produced about us, from STDs to abortions to poverty. It wouldn’t surprise me if they lied about the actual number of blks in America to ensure we always seem disproportionately disadvantaged.

cacs really have nothing better to do than throw jabs at black people and write misleading communications in the media can’t even just chill without being brought up and denigrated for no good reason. That line about POST DOCTORAL black women vs TRAILER TRASH is in wildly disrespectful

Damn I know far too many black women that never got married before 35....I guess that proves I’m in the wrong circles. And I’m on my 3rd marriage (this will be the last because if not I’m done)

But the Honorable Kevin Samuels said only 1 out 4 black women get married.

 

[Roid Jones]

You better close this thread bruh. The Kevin Samuels disciples are coming.

Call into his show and set him straight nah for real it would be interesting to see a stat based debate rather than the usual 'I feel like....'

Of course. World’s most insecure race of people. There’s nothing they hate more than a happy black family.
They literally burned down successful black towns back in the day.

And academia is the vanguard of white supremacy which is why most major research producing entities, universities, and centers are white.

For real, can’t just be happy without a cac getting themselves involved. It’s always their papercut lips women waiting for say something about noise or intimidating activity.

you’re very right about academia, it’s just another propaganda arm with a very finite set of views that punishes dissent.

How come every stat they bring out regarding Black women, seems so convoluted?

 

[newworldafro]

it'd be nice...but the data sample is pretty small...75% is based on data from 2005-2009?.

Personally to be honest...it seems like less and less are marrying...my wife is an aka...and she has a lot of members who are 40+ childless, single never married

I know a lot across the sororities just like that...

 

[MeachTheMonster]

Crazy how many black people believe the shytty stereotypes about ourselves.

You shouldn’t need a study or statistic to see love being shared in your community

 

[homiedontplaydat]

If I'm being honest 75% seems a bit inflated, just based off my own experiences id believe 50% at the most.
