| English abstract | People are going all around to live in knew countries. Sometimes, the reason is marriage. They do a migration because they will get married with someone living in another country. This feature facilities residence as integration, specially when the couple living in that country has the nationality of the country. There was an enormous gender imbalance in nuptiality when one of the persons of the couple is from outside the European Union, in recent years. But in the last years, homosexual marriages have narrowed the gap. In any case, an exogamic pattern is not frequent. This possibility is practically nearly absent. It is nice to say that people choice each other in a freedom situation. But, really sociologist have proved that there are social factor that conditioned unions. New data about homosexual marriage is available now. There is a new technical problem because both persons are of the same sex but nevertheless, some indicators can be calculated.

But opposite tendencies narrowed the gap between both groups There is no matter of love in this paper. Public data from INE shows distribution of marriage when at least one member of the couple is a foreign people. Rate by sex and origin (continents) are calculated and indicates a great gender imbalance, reduced because homosexual marriages between men are more frequent than between woman. Nevertheless, preference are not free and not equal for men and women. Women have more possibilities than men in heterosexual marriages, but men in homosexual.
