Figured I'd share this study I found
Basically, it's analyzed a bunch of patterns in racial intermarriage since 1967
Here's the whole thing, but I'll discern some pieces from it:
This, however, is the ultimate takeaway and most useful fact here imo:
A nice, clear breakdown per demographics.
Essentially, this is the "American Racepill" as I'd term it- also will be interesting to see certain users reactions to this.
Hopefully this also ends many hardcore absolutist ": MUH JBW!" shills
Basically, it's analyzed a bunch of patterns in racial intermarriage since 1967
Here's the whole thing, but I'll discern some pieces from it:
The number doubling from the 60s-80s is of no surprise, yet how much it jumped from then to 2015 is kinda shocking.In 1967, when miscegenation laws were overturned in the United States, 3% of all newlyweds were married to someone of a different race or ethnicity. Since then, intermarriage rates have steadily climbed. By 1980, the share of intermarried newlyweds had about doubled to 7%. And by 2015 the number had risen to 17%.4
Ofc, here we see that ": Muh diversity!" isn't exactly such a "fair" thing after all.The changing racial and ethnic profile of U.S. newlyweds is linked to growth in intermarriage
Significant growth in the Hispanic and Asian populations in the U.S. since 1980, coupled with the high rates of intermarriage among Hispanic and Asian newlyweds, has been an important factor driving the rise in intermarriage. Since that time, the share of all newlyweds that were Hispanic rose 9 percentage points, from 8% to 17%, and the share that were Asian grew from 2% to 6%. At the same time, the share of white newlyweds declined by 15 points and the share of black newlyweds held steady.
I think this sort of fits the "exotic" theory to a degreeFor example, whites, who comprise the largest share of the U.S. population, may be more likely to marry someone of the same race simply because most potential partners are white. And members of smaller racial or ethnic groups may be more likely to intermarry because relatively few potential partners share their race or ethnicity.
One of the most dramatic patterns occurs among black newlyweds: Black men are twice as likely as black women to have a spouse of a different race or ethnicity (24% vs. 12%). This gender gap has been a long-standing one – in 1980, 8% of recently married black men and 3% of their female counterparts were married to someone of a different race or ethnicity.
Alongside "just dont be asian" I think a sort of fem"cel" blackpill might be "just dont be black woman"A significant gender gap in intermarriage is apparent among Asian newlyweds as well, though the gap runs in the opposite direction: Just over one-third (36%) of Asian newlywed women have a spouse of a different race or ethnicity, while 21% of Asian newlywed men do. A substantial gender gap in intermarriage was also present in 1980, when 39% of newly married Asian women and 26% of their male counterparts were married to someone of a different race or ethnicity.
This was pretty interesting, since it does make sense: Those who go to college tend to skew more left by default, especially for more upper-levels as shown here.A growing educational gap in intermarriage
In 2015 the likelihood of marrying someone of a different race or ethnicity was somewhat higher among newlyweds with at least some college experience than among those with a high school diploma or less. While 14% of the less-educated group was married to someone of a different race or ethnicity, this share rose to 18% among those with some college experience and 19% among those with at least a bachelor’s degree. This marks a change from 1980, when there were virtually no educational differences in the likelihood of intermarriage among newlyweds.7
This also surprised me quite a bit, since I assumed Rices who were more higher educated would do better.
Asians with some college are the most likely to intermarry
While intermarriage is associated with higher education levels for Hispanics and blacks, this is not the case among Asian newlyweds. Those with some college are by far the most likely to have married someone of a different race or ethnicity – 39% in 2015 had done so, compared with about one-fourth (26%) of those with only a high school diploma or less and 29% of those with a bachelor’s degree.
Would make sense.In metro areas, almost one-in-five newlyweds are intermarried
Intermarriage is more common among newlyweds in the nation’s metropolitan areas, which are located in and around large urban centers, than it is in non-metro areas9, which are typically more rural. About 18% of those living in a metro area are married to someone of a different race or ethnicity, compared with 11% of those living outside of a metro area. In 1980, 8% of newlyweds in metro areas were intermarried, compared with 5% of those in non-metro areas.
