  PoBronson.com - Blog: Will This Marriage Last? – Opposites Attract, But Do They Stay Married?
Traditionally, men marry at older ages than women, because they are supposed to have finished their education and secured a "breadwinner" role before they marry, whereas less women were going to school, and they didn't need to establish a career, since they were going to be homemakers.
Thus, age is traditionally a somewhat heterogamous factor in marriage: the husband is usually a few years older than the wife.
Or, the couple may marry educationally heterogamous, because one of the partners hasn't finished school yet, but they may eventually become educationally homogamous, as that partner finishes school.

Consequentially, it could be said that Italian-Slovene ethnically heterogamous marriages are the only example of ethnically and culturally mixed marriages, which are distinguished by the presence of actual language pluralism (bilingualism), which is manifested in the prevailing bilingualism of the children and spontaneous transition from one language system into another within family communication.
The location and analysis of the response of primary social network to ethnically heterogamous marriage of a family member is exposed as relevant, as it implicitly reflects the attitude of broader social context to a given ethnic group and consequentially to ethnically mixed conjugalities.
Even if during the marriage the prejudice to the ethnicity to which a husband/wife belongs is overcome, the prejudice to other nations is preserved or even strengthened in the form of fear and dislike of their religion, language, culture and in expressed rejections of a potential marriage with a member of another ethnic group.

This is in contrast to a homogamous species in which all gametes are the same type.

I don't know why I'm pointing this out either: it is a great advantage (practically speaking, whatever the cost to intellectual discourse) to face a set of opponents who cannot grapple with your argument because, for whatever reasons, in spite of obviously keen intelligence, they simply cannot comprehend that a serious argument has been made.
Unfortunately, what is not being high-lighted is the number of heterogamous divorces due to people that think they can only be homogamously oriented, effectively trebling the number of divorces due to supposed homogamous orientation.
That's a clever dodge David, laying out the assumption that a heterogamous couple is always going to be dysfunctional and never going to procreate intentionally.

 Asteraceae flowers
Heterogamous capitula are mostly those with female, fertile, outer florets, and bisexual or male inner disc florets.
a) Radiate capitula are usually heterogamous, containing ray florets (1 or 2 described above) and disc florets (4 or 5 described above).
b) Disciform capitula are usually heterogamous containing filiform, outer female florets (3 described above) and disc florets (4 described above).

Studies also suggested that heterogamous marriages were more likely to end in divorce (Bumpass & Sweet, 1972; Bahr, 1981; Call & Heaton, 1997).
Religiously heterogamous marriages have a higher rate of divorce than religiously homogamous marriages.
First, the divided loyalties of those in religiously heterogamous marriages is associated with less marital happiness (see also Burleston and Denton, 1992; Tzeng, 1992).

 Social Psychology
Also, if you marry under the age of 20, you 6 times more likely to divorce than if you are over the age of 30.
If you are in a Homogamous relationship, where you both have similar backgrounds, you are more likely to be successful than if you are in a heterogamous relationship, one where you have very different backgrounds.
If both partners are putting as much into the relationship as they are taking out they are much more likely to be successful.

 Grass Genera of the World - Iseilema Anderss.
The spikelets of sexually distinct forms on the same plant; hermaphrodite and male-only, or hermaphrodite and sterile, or female-only and male-only, or female-only and sterile; overtly heteromorphic; in both homogamous and heterogamous combinations (with two basal pairs of homogamous, male or sterile spikelets, connate to form a false tetramerous whorl beneath the single heterogamous triplet).
Inflorescence falsely paniculate (the single racemes or tight clusters gathered with their spatheoles into a narrow false panicle); open; spatheate; a complex of ‘partial inflorescences’ and intervening foliar organs.
Spikelets distal to the involucral whorl in triplets; not secund; sessile and pedicellate (two pedicellate members per heterogamous triplet, the pedicels filiform); consistently in ‘long-and-short’ combinations; in pedicellate/sessile combinations.

 Grass Genera of the World - Elymandra Stapf
The spikelets of sexually distinct forms on the same plant; hermaphrodite and male-only, or hermaphrodite and sterile; overtly heteromorphic (only the female-fertile spikelets awned); in both homogamous and heterogamous combinations (each raceme with 1–6 or more male-only or sterile pairs at the base, then one or more heterogamous pairs above and a heterogamous terminal triad).
Spikelets paired and in triplets (pairs below, with a terminal heterogamous triad); sessile and pedicellate; consistently in ‘long-and-short’ combinations (in the upper part of the raceme, those of the lower homogamous pairs all being sessile); in pedicellate/sessile combinations.
The ‘shorter’ spikelets hermaphrodite (i.e., in the heterogamous combinations).

In addition, plants with discoid capitula are considered homogamous since all florets are of one sexual form (perfect-bisexual disk florets), and plants with disciform capitula are considered heterogamous with two or more sexual forms (i.e., pistillate rays and perfect disks, or pistillate rays and staminate disks).
It is apparently defined taxonomically on the basis of plesiomorphies (heterogamous, disciform capitula with perfect/fertile disk florets and pistillate ray florets), and needs to be re-circumscribed.
However, there may be many genetic and developmental mechanisms that affect ray formation and control floret fertility [69,70].

 Zygomycetes: Zygorhynchus
Zygospores form zygosporangia that have a brown to fl, roughened wall.
The suspensors are opposed and heterogamous (at maturity, one suspensor is as large, or nearly so, as the zygosporangium, and the other usually is barely, or not, visible).
Zygosporogenesis in Zygorhynchus heterogamous, with a proposal for standardization of structural nomenclature.
