White Men Dating/Marrying Minority Women? Opinions?

Recently I had to write a research paper on IRs and discovered that Asian female and white male relationships are steadily becoming the most common pairing in several large states. However, statistically speaking, latinas are married to white men at the highest rate nationally. While the number of Black women married to white men has trippled over the last ten years. In Shakespeare's "Dark Lady Sonnets" he proclaims "Black is beauty's successive heir."Are white men abandoning the idea of the aesthetically "superior" white woman in favor of darker beauties?I surveyed white males at my university for their views of white women and 64% of them felt white women were portrayed as the ideal beauties in order to promote the continuation of the white race, not b/c its ever been true? I also surveyed white womenon campus and most of them aggreed that they were placed on a pedestal to ensure the birth of more white males and minority women were left out in order to discourage miscegenation.
