Interracial or Intercultural Relationship?

What do you use: intercultural, interracial, or something else? I generally refer to my marriage - and speak of other relationships on this blog - in terms of cultural similarities or differences - mainly because cultural differences are where my interests lie. Thus, Aditya and I have an inter-cultural marriage, I write about the positives and negatives of intercultural relationships, and explore the values and beliefs of Aditya's and my cultures. And yet, culture alone does not tell the whole story. Race does matter in our relationship - at least in how the rest of society views our marriage.
