Well I see you guys just want to shame women, black women especially and make us feel undesirable. Why? I don't know but it's pretty pathetic that you would want to do such a thing.

nope only older black women holding onto a dream that will never come true

:laff: you dudes are some haters. There are more than enough men on this earth for every woman on this earth to find one.

Especially @His_Excellence_Reincar its like he LOVES to shyt on women. I think if @Raye82 wants to get married, it will happen. As long as she's a good woman and doesn't get fat she will find someone (shyt even if she gets fat, she might lmao). Stop being an ass because you're miserable reincar. :smh:

I cited an academic study. Show me some stats that say other wise. I would love to hear you tell those professors who conducted the research using a nationally representative dataset that their telling ducktales.

Just 26 percent of black women are married today, compared with 56 percent of Asian women, the ethnic group with the highest proportion of married women.

Many black women respond by “marrying down, but not out,” as Mr Banks puts it. But that makes bad marriages. Two out of every three black marriages fail, about twice the rate of white marriages.

The real problem is the behaviour of those few black men who are considered good catches. They often stay unmarried for the opposite reason: they have too many options. As one man told Mr Banks: “If you have four quality women you're dating and they're in a rotation, who's going to rush into a marriage?” Even black men who nominally commit to one woman are five times as likely as their white counterparts to have others on the side.

One way or another, many black women thus become, or stay, single (as two of Mr Banks's three sisters are). As one woman tells him: “We focus on our careers, our friends, go back to school, whatever. We fill our lives with other things.” But in the hundreds of interviews Mr Banks conducted, he found pervasive sadness.

The most obvious solution, he discovered, also runs into the greatest taboo: intermarriage. This is ironic, because black men are statistically very open to marrying outside their race—more than one in five does. But fewer than one in ten black women intermarries.

Please show me a citation and a qualification of that statistic with a age range because again, according actual academic researchers who were interviewed with the root (I posted the article), 75% of black women have been married or will be married by 35. What dataset if the 26% from? If you are going to cite something then do it right. The study I cited used the American Community Surveys dataset (which is widely used in academic research). Come on and do it right if you want to prove a point.
