TYT: “My Husband’s Not Gay”… Or Is He?

From the same network that brought you Sarah Palin's Alaska:

“In January, TLC will air a special titled My Husband’s Not Gay featuring three married Mormon couples in which the husband is, in fact, gay — as well as one single man who identifies as homosexual, but is actively seeking a wife.

In the preview of the first episode, one of the couples’ husbands says that 'no marriage is perfect, and ours isn’t either — but we believe with our faith in God, we can overcome anything.’ Another says that he’s 'attracted to [his] wife for sure, but definitely attracted to men too.'”

Not everyone fits into a neat box of either/or.

These dudes and their wives, though, may very well just be in deep religion-based denial.

Obviously, everyone has a right to self-define their sexuality - even defining themselves as straight, and then gay, and then straight again. No one, including me, has a right to veto that.

That remark was stupid of me, so again, I apologize.
