I would hope you are right - I know some couples who have an education disparity but it does seem to be an issue, more so if it is the man who is less educated*. On the other hand I know a fair few couples of different races and that seems to be much less of a point of contention.
*Edit: I have noticed that different levels of education seem to be slightly less important / likely to cause problems in gay couples. That's just my experience of friends and friends of friends.
