Boomer Gen and our grandparents Gen seemed to be best Gen of Black ppl when it comes to marriage.

if that was true then why did their children use the "horror stories" of Rapist Big Daddy who married underaged Big Mama by force, and raped her to give him 20 kids while he cheated on her

A large portion, but not all. There were more white women with family money behind them so they could marry more for love vs convenience, black folk getting married before the 70’s were not likely to have family money, so marriage was the de facto way to some stability
Racism really did fukk up our whole way of life.

I guess not. But didn't we see a stat saying most men aren't having sex? How you gonna act like you got options when the one option you got is at home? :mjtf:

That's true but I'm sure there are many scenarios where the men got married in their 20s before they leveled up in their 30s and became more attractive to more women.

If this is legit, it's not that surprising when you figure that financial problems are the main cause of divorce.

Not getting enough rest while up at night thinking of how you're going to pay for x, y and z will get you in each others' faces.

Who Files for Divorce More?​

who files for divorce more

A study by M. Rosenfeld from Stanford University discovered that women started almost 69% of all divorces among about 2,000 surveyed couples.

Of course women overwhelmingly initiate divorce, the system is set up so that they make out like bandits!!

Imagine if the benefits of divorced were reversed, it would be men who overwhelmingly file.

Those stats are interesting. For decades before the huge increase in the early 2000s, White husband/Black wife had the lowest divorce rates. That's no longer the case.

Yeah, apparently the original study didn't have that much data (it was based on only about 300 wm/bf relationships) the updated study from the image I posted had far more data.

From the original study in 2008:

As you can see they only queried about 600 total BF through all relationship combinations.

Most normal people don't even know what that shyt is. They're going about their business thinking "I need to post this" every half hour.

We marry the least and divorce the most. This has been known for a long time. Stop denying it.
Many sources have proven this.

Unfortunately, black folks suck at marriage :francis:
This, pretty sure we've always had the highest divorce rates since the 90s I remember reading about it as a child lol. I'm not sure why people are surprised
