I never understand the requests to get marginal effects of interaction
terms. If you have x1, x2, and x1*x2, then x1*x2 can't change unless
x1 and/or x2 changes. If you run a model with these terms in Stata
using factor variable notation, you can get marginal effects for x1
and x2 but not for their interaction term. Which, to me, is the way
things should be. Am I missing something?

But my concern is that in logit models we have some difficulties in order to get marginal effects of interaction terms. In fractional logit models do we have the same problem? or do we just need to add the interaction terms and interpret the results as they are in the outcome table?
