    In my opinion, both terms mean the same to me.

    No. Interracial implies that each partner is a different race than the other. A mixed race couple could mean that both are of mixed race.

    I think you’ve hit upon the perfect explanation.

    I thought 'mixed race couple' meant that one of them ran faster than the other, and 'interracial couple' meant that they both ran at the same pace.

    Probably. But why do you have people who are same-sex in pics?

    Why not?  There’s nothing wrong with it.

  • I think so too. I can’t express correctly in words  what I mean, but I know what I mean.
