Interracial Marriage

Out of curiosity, Wife and I decided to do one of those DNA tests to ascertain our ancestry.  Last night, we received the results.

To my surprise, I learned that I'm married to an African-American woman.  I suppose I should have guessed this based on her hair.  This new discovery may bolster my bid for mayor of New York City.

I learned that I'm Middle Eastern (West Asia).  This could be traced to Syria, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia Jordan, UAE, Yemin, Turkey or Israel. 

Wife's ancestry only came back as 1% African.  But it was a full 1%. 

My ancestry is 3% Middle Eastern.

Maybe since the results show that Wife is 99% European while I'm 97% European, our marriage isn't all that ethnically diverse.  It certainly is culturally diverse though.
