most biracial kids relate more to thenon white side bro, and are morelikely to end up with that race

Nope. Show me some stats. Most Biracials who aren't in the hood are marrying White.

no stats but in my life experience, bi racial people, talking black white here, will generally date black people. especially women.

There is a very obvious reason the stats aren't public.

wmbw relationships are less popular but when ive seen them it does seem like the real thing aka theyre probably married.

There is no data suggesting either of these things are the case. I think the majority of these relationships the people are actually not married. The marriage rate is very, very low for wm/bw. There's little to no data on it.

The study that I quoted adjusted for sample size. Its not hard to do. The study compared the PERCENTAGE of marriages (both same race and interracial) that end in divorce by the tenth year. It did not measure the NUMBER but the PERCENTAGE of each group. I notice that you and your ilk have no issue with the stats regarding any other group besides WMBW.

You guys seem so bothered by this study for some reason and yet you guys LOVE the quote any study that reflects negatively on black women.

Every study with a small sample tries to downplay the sample's significance; this does not change the fact that the sample is small and so the statistical power is accordingly low. One can correct for Mark Sanchez's college stats all they want by breaking down his stats by yards per attempt, yards per completion, accuracy, etc. He looks great from every angle in college. Why? Because of the small sample size and other variables like his supporting case. Small sample size can't be corrected a lot of the time without further study (or in Sanchez's case, more playing time), which is why researchers are always asking for more money to recruit more subjects.

In this case, the sample size here is so low and the people are probably unlike their host population that the statistic is invalid. It's probably measuring a different population than the normal black and white populations. At face there's no reason a group which values black men on one hand and a group that doesn't like black women on the other would even get the point of marriage. Based on this notion, if the bw/wm population theoretically got larger and were hitched together by force, the divorce rate would go up since there's no amount of wm that want bw like that relative to other women and probably no amount of bw that want a wm when they can get a bm. So that's the extrapolation which shows the "low divorce rate" for wm/bw is a trick of the numbers that comes from a natural low sample size and apples-to-oranges population comparison.

I think they date at low percentages and it doesn't usually work out. And then they marry at low percentages and the majority of them who get married do so when they are older and used up. This gives a different appearance to normal intraracial couplings, which encompass the young, poor, middle class, rich, etc, but the truth is that they're no more in the long haul than other older white people couples (for example) who get married when they're older.

Are you Black? Anecdotes, in-group biases and confirmation bias about who YOU perceive biracials dating holds no weight. I can assure you in a different setting, you would have a totally different view.

Now ask yourself why studies on biracials have not been made public, since we know they have been done? If there was ANY research that biracials didn't favor their White side when choosing a mate, best believe it would be public like a beacon for all Whites.

:laff: @ this delusional bytch not knowing anything about sample size or statistics. Numbers factor into rates. If a number is too low then it gives a wrong rate. If Mark Sanchez were only judged by 3 good games he played, he would be GOAT :russ:



Your response to @Poitier doesn't respond to what he said. The number is related to the rate. There are so few WM/BW marriages (low sample size here is like Mark Sanchez's low sample size game tape in college where he looked great) and the people who do them are so atypical of the normal black and white groups (essentially they're older and richer since older people generally have more money whereas most white and black couples are younger and poorer) that the stat is worthless.
168,000 marriages isn't a small sample size
