CHICAGO TRIBUNE - July 10 - According to a recent national poll dating across ethnic lines still carries some apprehension. A study out of the University of California at Berkeley examined more than a million profiles from a free online dating site and found that young white men and women (ages 20 to 39) reached out to other whites 80% of the time, while white men reached out to blacks only 3% of the time and white women did so 8% of the time. Young black daters were much more open, reaching out to whites and blacks about equally. Fewer than 2% of new marriages in the U.S. between 2008 and 2010 were between blacks and whites, according to a Pew Research study.
