Quote Of The Day

“In this context, it is encouraging to note that intermarriage is widespread among Mexican Americans. More than a third of married, U.S.-born Mexicans have non-Mexican spouses, with the overwhelming majority of these non-Mexican spouses being U.S.-born, non-Hispanic whites. Because it takes two Mexican-origin spouses to create an endogamous Mexican marriage, whereas a Mexican intermarriage requires only one Mexican-origin spouse, the observed rate of intermarriage implies that almost half of Mexican-American marriages involve a non-Mexican spouse”. –Stephen J. Trejo, associate professor of economics at the University of Texas at Austin and a research fellow at the IZA Institute for the Study of Labor

    Is it true that Mexican chicks marry white dudes to escape their alcoholic fathers? Is it true that Mexican dudes marry white girls because they don’t know how to dance?
    Whatever the real reasons behind it, “intermarriage” is hot.
