The National Couples Survey asked 593 people if they've slept with someone else since being married. Here are the percentages answering yes by race/ethnicity:
Percent
Whites 6.2
Blacks 17.8*
Hispanics 9.1
Asians 15.4
Amerindians 10.0
* p < .05, two-tail test, compared with whites.
Samples sizes for minority groups are small--only blacks have significantly higher rates. (I know that someone having multiple partners in an open marriage would be included with the cheaters, but this type of arrangement is rare, I think.)

That says something uncommonly outstanding relating to the condition of the principled life: that it is based on a trustworthiness in the uncertain and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a weed than like a treasure, something kind of fragile, but whose very item attraction is inseparable from that fragility.
