So I read this from the Washington Post this morning, "The number of interracial marriages in the U.S. has risen 20 percent since 2000 to about 4.5 million, according to the latest census figures. While still growing, that number is a marked drop-off from the 65 percent increase between 1990 and 2000." Okay, let's do the math. 4.5 million is a 20% increase over 3.75million. So there were 3.75million interracial marriages in 2000. That's a difference of - wait for it - 750,000. Okay, so 3.75million is a 65% increase over what? It's a 65% increase over 2.27million. That is an actual increase of - wait for it just shy of - 1.5 million. So there were 1.5 million interracial marriages in the 1990s and half that many in the 2000s.
Then the WaPo adds, "About 8 percent of U.S. marriages are mixed-race, up from 7 percent in 2000." Okay. If 4.5 million is 8% of all marriages, that means there were 56.25million marriages in 2010. And 3.75m is 7% of 53.57million, which must be the number of marriages in 2000. Right, because the total # of interracial marriages in 2000 was 7% and in 2010 is 8%.
Okay so let's do that math. How many additional marriages were there in the 2000s? Note that the total marriage stat takes into account death and divorce and new marriage as a "net" additional marriages. Well, total number of additional marriages in the 2000s evidently 56.25 million minus 53.57 million., meaning approx 2.75million additional marriages. Apparently, of that additional 2.75million marriages in the 2000s, 0.75million were interracial. That would meant that 27% of all additional marriages in the 2000s were interracial marriages.
Doesn't seem so small to me.

Math is Fun!

Did the study take into account the rise in "decline to state" responses? From what I understand, there are many biracial people who either identify more strongly with an ethnicity (i.e., being Latino rather than being of African descent), so decline to state a race in poll responses, or decline to do so for other reasons.

Have no clue what this gibberish is about.
I lost any faith in the census when suddenly the number of married women versus married men in Utah dropped off the charts.
The last Honest report I saw said there were 40,000 more married women in Utah than men.
Now I know that Utah gave up polygamy to become a state. However, 40,000 showed that that was a pure ass lie.
Believe anything about the census? Hell no. Just how ignorant are you?
Apparently math is not fun for everyone.
11:13pm- what an ignorant comment.
How could there be 40,000 more married women in Utah than men? The easiest explanation is the simplest: the men are temporarily working elsewhere. Military men, in all likelihood.
