    What does your guest know about American non-Latino non-African men who proactively marry Latin women (and of course women from many other nations)? How does this trend impact the progress of feminism overall in the US?

    i am curious to know if this poll included women who came to america without husbands, and immigrant women who married american men. if so, were there any differences in experiences?
