Interracial Couples vs. Mono-Racial Couples???

Question

I am doing a paper on the above topic. I was wondering if anyone had any COMPARE and CONTRAST ideas on Interracial Couples vs Mono-Racial Couples??? Any thoughts would be a great help! Thanks!

Strange topic for a paper. Do you know any interracial couples you could interview? I have a good friend who is a blond of European descent married to a dark skin person of African descent. Is that what you are picturing in your head when you ask this question?  Or a person from China marrying a Polynesian, or an African with dark skin marrying someone from Japan?

I usually avoid any religious sites, but this one has interesting idea on your topic. Such as there is really no such thing.

I would think that a forth generation Irish American marrying a person from Ireland would also have similar differences as a couple.

Did see an article that interracial couples spend more money on their kids and education.

Where I also saw this... "The study also highlighted the great variation in U.S. biracial couples. Couples with one black parent and one white parent made up the smallest set—just 143 couples, compared to 601 in which one parent was Latino and the other white. There were 174 white and Asian couples and 191 couples who were white and "other," which referred to Native Americans among others."

Doing this google search will give you some other ideas... "interracial couples American Journal of Sociology"
