Anti-Miscegnation Statutes in the United States Anti-Miscegenation
Previous to Loving v. Virginia, there were several cases on the subject of miscegenation. In Pace v. Alabama (1883), the Supreme Court made a ruling that the conviction of an Alabama couple for interracial sex, confirmed on the plea by the Alabama Supreme Court, did not disrupt the Fourteenth Amendment. Interracial marital sex was considered a felony, whereas adulterous sex ("infidelity or fornication") was just a misdemeanor. On plea, the United States Supreme Court made a ruling that the illegalization of interracial sex was not a defilement of the equal protection clause since whites and non-whites were penalized in equivalent amount for the wrongdoing of involving in interracial sex. The court did not see the need to sustain the constitutionality of the prohibition on interracial marriage that was likewise part of Alabama's anti-miscegenation law. After Pace v. Alabama, the constitutionality of anti-miscegenation laws that were a ban on marriage and sex among whites and non-whites had stayed unopposed until the 1920s and this paper discusses its opposition after the loving vs. Virginia case gave it that push.

Relationships between women and faithful men: a survey-based study
Women are More Faithful than Men
Abstract
The libraries and bookstores are overloaded with published books about love and relationships, and television programs deal with those topics on a daily basis. One
of the most frequently addressed topics in these books and programs is infidelity.
And while digging into the subject, as this paper does, it is apparent that when it
comes to infidelity and cheating, men do it more than women. This paper does not
try to delve very deeply into the why, but it provides solid scholarship on the data
and the literature on the situations that exist in society, and in marriages, that tempt
men to stray from their relationships. The substance of this paper is that women are
more faithful than men. Young women considering marriage should engage in a
patient and thorough investigation into the tendency of men to cheat, and be totally
familiar with her prospective husband's past prior to tying the knot.
