From .Mic:
A 2014 psychology study from the University of California, Irvine, found that college
students in interracial relationships rated their partners more highly for attractiveness
and intelligence than their peers in same-race relationships, showing a high level
of mutual appreciation for one another. … As sociologist Jennifer Lee.... said: "Increased
intermarriage and interracial dating indicate that the racial boundaries that have
long separated groups are slowly beginning to fade." [Jennifer Lee is a professor
of Sociology at UCI.]
