Why has the Rate of black people in interracial Marriages sharply increased in recent years?

[Elim Garak]

It's no longer taboo. It's a time when it was illegal lol.

I’m on that list, “black men” includes foreigners and athletes who make up a significant majorly.

Is one of y’all going to give some actual evidence to explain why black men are marrying out TWICE as often as black women?

athletes making up less than 10 percent of the black student body is not a legitimate explanation

“proximity” is not a legitimate explanation, there are more black women in college than black men across the board

please post some actual data that shows that foreign black men plus athletes make up more than half of black male college students (you said a significant majority).

also Include the percentage of black female students who are foreign, word to Tariq nasheed

That's because black men are more desirable to non-black females than black women are to non-black males.

Now watch as everyone attacks me for stating the obvious.

I disagree, but this is a better answer Than the fake statistics

I don't know about more cooperative but they definitely choosing. I get approached by other women, not even white but Asian, Indian etc..

I think that's the thing, women are choosing men from other backgrounds, not too sure why, but it seems very common nowadays.

I think folks like Mike Colter and Childish Gambino like black women, they just so happened to get picked up by white women, can't really blame them

Yea shyt is real out here.
These other races of women really be on my nuts when I pop out.

I can only imagine how it is for these lil nikkas in high school/college.

I saw a breakdown of this on twitter recently. Apparently roughly around 50% (it was slightly less iirc) of black people with Caribbean lineage are dating out in the UK

But for black people with African lineage +80% dated black.

Yeah. Could understand this. The island I live on they worship whiteness and colorism is the regular of the day, but they try put on a pretence of 'black unity' 'black love' knowing that lighter toned people get this weird preference. It's sad shyt to see

Brehs move from over here to Canada or the US and pick the first white girl they see. Like literally dudes will take ANY white girl

Black men and women don’t get along other than sex.

big butts and pretty brown tatas

Subconsciously Back Americans know children with less Black features have more privileges. Studies even back this up.

But to be fair, Black American men don't even marry many of their Black baby mamas. So the Black American population isn't in jeopardy. High same race marriage amongst white folk ain't stopping them from having below replacement fertility rates.

They need to focus on their own issues and less on Black people. Just sayin.

That's because black men are more desirable to non-black females than black women are to non-black males.

But at the end of the day it’s a choice. My youngest said he has nothing for any women but Black women. He says at the end of the day he would never trust a WW if there came a day and a side had to be chose. He only dates Black and mostly Brown skin girls. That’s his preference. But other races don’t even get considered and he’s 20. Most of his friends date out.

Who gives a f*ck. Get in where you fit in. Black people in general are done worldwide. You might as well just enjoy yourself and smash PAWGS and PAAGs.

“Historically, in the matriarchal Negro society, mothers made sure that if one of their children had a chance for higher education the daughter was the one to pursue it.”

“The effect on family functioning and role performance of this historical experience [economic deprivation] is what you might predict. Both as a husband and as a father the Negro male is made to feel inadequate, not because he is unlovable or unaffectionate, lacks intelligence or even a gray flannel suit. But in a society that measures a man by the size of his pay check, he doesn’t stand very tall in a comparison with his white counterpart. To this situation he may react with withdrawal, bitterness toward society, aggression both within the family and racial group, self-hatred, or crime. Or he may escape through a number of avenues that help him to lose himself in fantasy or to compensate for his low status through a variety of exploits.”

Thomas Pettigrew: “The Negro wife in this situation can easily become disgusted with her financially dependent husband, and her rejection of him further alienates the male from family life. Embittered by their experiences with men, many Negro mothers often act to perpetuate the mother-centered pattern by taking a greater interest in their daughters than their sons.”

Deton Brooks: “In a matriarchal structure, the women are transmitting the culture.”

Dorothy Height: “If the Negro woman has a major underlying concern, it is the status of the Negro man and his position in the community and his need for feeling himself an important person, free and able to make his contribution in the whole society in order that he may strengthen his home.”

And this just reinforces my point that these "norms" of what a man or woman should be, do not work for all black people. I'm not saying it's not something ideal, but we have to be realistic. Black men and women should understand, men have a greater role in the family outside of providing. If statistics are showing that black men are under educated and underemployed, while black women are slowly trending in the opposite, it wouldn't be smart to seek these traditional associations with one another.

One of the best things about some black women is we aren't afraid to step outside of roles if that's what it takes to get the job done and I don't feel some black men do the same. It's like if I can't do X, then I'm not valuable at all. There is nothing wrong with men taking on more of the household and parenting duties if the woman is making the greater salary. He could also be developing himself through formal training or education while doing it. A man's "contribution" shouldn't be tied solely to his ability to go to work.

Lmao thhere's only 20 black people at Cal Tech. That's the second best STEM school after MIT

dude this is old by like a few years.

and intermarrage is up across the board. it is what it is. Yall nikkas care to much on this shyt

For real, thecoli cares too much. This was already in the works. When you live in a white majority population, there's going to be intermarriage. Just look at Brazil.

Theoretically it can if everyone is mixed.

I disagree.
If it's not race...it's class. Or nationality. Or religion. Or some other thing that pits us against each other that people in power use against us.
