In studying mixed relationships, he finds that ethnicity, in the form of language and religion, is more important than race. Males and females were more likely to find themselves in coethnic relationships as they imagined the role that extended family would play. They talked about parental prejudices, language, religion, and other cultural clashes as major factors. There were many females, however, who did not follow this pattern because of perceptions of patriarchy. They avoided coethnic relationships because they wanted a partner who would think of them as an equal.New Americans (LFB Scholarly Publishing LLC)IntermarriageUnited StatesInterethnic marriageUnited StatesInterracial marriageUnited StatesImmigrantsUnited StatesIntermarriageInterethnic marriageInterracial marriageImmigrants306.84/60869120973Morgan Charlie V.1972-1862432MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910956599303321Intermarriage across race and ethnicity among immigrants4468692UNINA
