What's your racial preference?

[Fat Kevin]

I think they're more likely to marry black but whatever.

I'm assuming biracial is counted as black so it's hard to know but you're probably right, to an extent

 

[Fat Kevin]

its about community. race your kids in white schools in white neighborhoods, and they'll lean towards whites.

yeah and it also depends on how their parents act

 

[godkiller]

it's not really that uncommon
168,000 marriages isn't a small sample size

the study didnt look at 160k marriages. it looked at 48 couples out of >5000 surveyed. that's low sample size. now that I think about it, at baseline, the predictive value doesn't approach statistical significance on an objectivebasis (that means the sample is too small to conclude anything). @GiGi is a delusional moron

yeah that's way too small then
I thought you were talking about wmbw marriages in general

theres lots of variables but it all falls down to community. raise your black kids in a predominately white area and odds are they'll lean towards whites too.

What do you mean by this? It seems like biracial people who came from middle class and upper class backgrounds dated White. I know Halle Berry's daughter and Tiger Woods' kids will be marrying White. Good thing for Tiger's father is that he has full Black kids from a previous marriage don't know about Halle Berry's father, his Black bloodline has most likely ended.

say a black nerd has kids with the average white woman, the kids would act white
if a hip hop cac has kids with the average black woman, the kids would act black

I can see this. The Black nerd would most likely feel more comfortable raising his kids in a White environment.

Was there a reason why you used "cac" for the man and not the woman in this example?

well im guessing they measured all marriages the same right?

Yes, the study looked at the percent of the marriages (both same race and interracial) that ended in divorce by the 10 year mark.

Comparisons across marriage cohorts revealed that, overall, interracial couples have higher rates of divorce, particularly for those that married during the late 1980s. The authors found that gender plays a significant role in interracial divorce dynamics:

According to the adjusted models predicting divorce as of the 10th year of marriage, interracial marriages that are the most vulnerable involve White females and non-White males relative to White/White couples.

White wife/Black husband marriages are twice as likely to divorce by the 10th year of marriage compared to White/White couples, while White wife/Asian husband marriages are 59% more likely to end in divorce compared to White/White unions.

Conversely, White men/non-White women couples show either very little or no differences in divorce rates. Asian wife/White husband marriages show only 4% greater likelihood of divorce by the 10th year of marriage than White/White couples.

In the case of Black wife/White husband marriages, divorce by the 10th year of marriage is 44% less likely than among White/White unions. Intermarriages that did not cross a racial barrier, which was the case for White/Hispanic White couples, showed statistically similar likelihoods of divorcing as White/White marriages.

no reason to be honest

 

[TMNT4000]

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.

Wait, are you trying to say that they wont release the stats because more biracial people date/marry white or black?

Hold up, that divorce stat was a survey done by a small amount of marry couples and not the overall?

It's all pink on the inside, brehs.
