Marrying outside of a group, often referred to as exogamy, involves forming a marital union with someone from a different social, cultural, ethnic, or religious background than one's own. This practice can strengthen ties between different communities and promote diversity, but it may also challenge traditional norms and values within the originating group. Exogamy contrasts with endogamy, where individuals marry within a specific group, often to preserve cultural or social identity.
