== Assortative Mating and Online Dating (2017, Germany) ==

53

== Tinder Usage and Interracial Dating (2020, Netherlands) ==

54

55

Using 24 fake Tinder profiles featuring White and non-White people (minorities in the Netherlands: Turkish, Moroccan, etc).

56

12 White, 12 non-White.

57

All respondents found White-looking profiles more attractive.

58

59

[[image:GeEiZQAXAAAitYl.jpg||width="350px"]] [[image:GeEigtRWAAAmzee.png||width="350px"]]

60

61

Study limitations: Asking respondents to indicate ethnic similarity could have primed them to the purpose of the study, and led to increased social desirability in their answers.

62

Conclusion: All respondents ranked Caucasian-looking Tinder users as more attractive and dateable.

63

64

== Modeling Dating Decisions (2021) ==

65

66

"Attractiveness and race were nearly double the influence of other things...

67

While attractiveness played a major role in the participants' decisions to swipe left or right, race was a leading factor."

69

[[image:GeEingJWUAAhkg4.png||width="350px"]] [[image:GeEioFUXkAAA8dW.png||width="350px"]]

70

71

Conclusion:

72

"When the targets were Black, Asian, or Hispanic, they were less likely to be swiped right on. Among the largest effect sizes was a lower likelihood of swiping right if the target was Black.

73

Negative stereotypes may impact their [perceived] attractiveness."

81

Race was the most important factor in partner choice.

86

Visual cues to race determine selection, while related cultural signaling appears irrelevant.

93

Latinas liked White men over Black and Asian, but not Latinos.

94

Asian women preferred Asian over Black, but not White men.

95

100

101

Asian women preferred White and Asian men. (They were more willing to date Black men than White women were.)

102

Black women had no racial preference.

106

== Tinder and Russian Generation Z (2022) ==

107

108

Dateability is heavily influenced by racial preferences.

109

Almost everyone stated that they would never swipe right on someone of a different race.

110

111

[[image:GeEjdqXWMAAjI8u.png||width="350px"]] [[image:GeEjeUAWQAAptFT.png||width="350px"]]

112

113

Theorized cause: "Sexual racism" from Russian media.

114

Russian children don't see Black people growing up, so they absorb pictures of Blacks from Russian pop culture. This shows them with low social capital, thus zoomers hesitate.

== Racial Preferences in Dating Apps (2023, Aldana et al) ==

119

120

In a mock tinder app with 2,513 participants:

121

All of the female participants who initiated a conversation in the heterosexual condition with the Black male profile were trans women, according to their bios.

122

123

[[image:GeEjydPWgAAKbP-.jpg||width="250px"]] [[image:GeEjzCfWMAA66c0.jpg||width="250px"]] [[image:GeEjzi5WkAALq4c.jpg||width="250px"]] [[image:GeEj0BgXYAAsBef.jpg||width="250px"]]

124

125

Thousands of people saw these profiles.

126

White profiles had more likes in every situation.

127

Conclusion: Homogamous preferences, and rooted problems like sexual racism, can lead users to maintain a racialized sexual hierarchy that privileges Whiteness.

== Match's Singles in America (2023) ==

132

133

Gen Z Less Likely To Date Outside of Their Race Than Millennials.

134

While Gen Z might be known for their progressive politics, they might not be as progressive when it comes to dating compared with their Millenial elders.

138

== Annual Review of Sociology (2024) ==

139

140

It was speculated that Asian men face more discrimination from White women than Black men do.

141

Yet, Black and Asian men outmarry at similar rates.

142

White women discriminate against Black and Asian men equally.

143

144

[[image:GeEkrbsWkAEGDEd.png||width="350px"]]

145

146

Therefore, White men's marriage patterns with Black women are the anomaly, and must be due to anti-Black discrimination.

147

White men's anti-Black discrimination may be a more important explanation for observed intermarriage patterns.

150

151

== Racial Marriage Preferences and Online Dating (2024) ==

152

153

The rise of dating apps hasn't changed racial marriage preferences:

154

"Our results indicated strong racial preferences... The paper found minimal changes in these preferences over the 2008-21 period, in which online dating dominated marriage selection."

155

156

[[image:GeEk5WXXgAA4E6z.jpg||width="350px"]] [[image:GeEk528WQAAC1zc.png||width="350px"]]

157

158

Conclusion:

159

Our findings of minimal changes in preferences over the 2008-21 period is surprising. Given the proliferation of online dating...

160

Because people have increasingly been marrying someone more like themselves, that can account for the increase in household inequality.

= Marriage =

Among currently married women in their 1st marriage in 2016, 10 percent were in an interracial/interethnic marriage.

167

10.3% of women

168

5.1% of married non-Hispanic White women

169

8% of married Black women

170

20.6% of Asian women

171

22.4% of Hispanic or Latino (any race)

172

173

[[image:GeElhTVWUAAgkH8.png||width="350px"]] [[image:GeElh5kWoAAfp4j.png||width="350px"]]

174

175

Why is the number (5.1%) so low here?

176

Research has shown that interracial couples have higher rates of divorce than other couples, so the percentage of currently married interracial couples shown in the table may be lower than the percentage of interracial couples who married.

177

178

[[image:GeEl0I4WYAAOtU5.png||width="350px"]] [[image:GeEl0u4XIAAw68r.png||width="350px"]]

179

180

What are the trends?

181

2000-2016, the total % of interracial married households increased from 7.4% to 10.2%.

182

Of this:

183

White/Hispanic: 35% to 40% respectively.

184

White/Asian: 12.5%-14.4%

185

White/Black couples: 7.1%-8.1%.

186

Brazil: 5.4% / 4.1%

France: 2.0% / 1.4%

UK: 0.7% / 0.4%

USA: 2.0% / 0.6%

SA: 0.5% / 1.0%

201

202

"We use the term intermarriage in a generic manner; in our study we examine both married and cohabiting couples.

203

A feature of black–white intermarriage in the US is an imbalanced sex ratio; such gender imbalances are not found in any other countries."

== Marital Instability Among Interracial Couples ==

209

210

White wife/Black husband marriages show twice the divorce rate of White wife/White husband couples by the 10th year of marriage.

211

The highest divorce rate of any combo, including Black-Black marriages.

212

213

214

215

From a later study "Marital Dissolution...":

216

Black husband-White wife marriages are 185% more likely to end in divorce.

217

White Husband-Black wife, 158%

218

Hispanic Husband-White wife, 133%

219

White Husband-Hispanic wife, 111%

220

Both gender combinations with Asians had lower divorce rates

222

= Cohabitation =

8% of White adults cohabit, 57% are married.

227

Whites are the least likely to cohabit interracially, at 12%.

228

Of cohabiting households in 2007-2011, 2.7% were Black-White.

229

In 2017-2021, this share increased to 2.8%.

230

A 0.1% increase in the last decade.

231

233

234

White men and women have the same cohabitation rates: 7.9% each.

235

Cohabitation rates have plateaued over the past decade.

236

Only 26% of non-Hispanic White women remain in their cohabitant union for at least 3 years before separation. 8% survive 5 years.

= IR Birth Data =

From the latest CDC Natality Statistics:

275

276

== Birthrate Trends (2016-2023) ==

277

278

Like in all previous years, the overall number of IR births is down since 2016.

279

The increases in percentage (0.1% every 3 years for BM-WW births) isn't due to an increase in their number—rather White-White births have simply declined overall.

280

281

[[image:GeEsg7WW4AAN6iJ.jpg||width="350px"]] [[image:GeEshc2XQAAWUsg.png||width="350px"]]

282

283

Key points from the CDC data:

284

IR couples with non-Whites have higher rates of single parenthood in every case, especially with Black partners.

285

The birth rate between White women and Asian men is equivalent to White women and Black men, when controlling for population size.

286

287
