Why Do Same-Sex Attracted Men Marry Women?
Dear Mrs. Bee
: This is what I have found with meeting people that with gay husbands, straight wives as to just some of the reasons why same-sex attracted men marry women include;
Wanting a traditional family life that includes raising children Homophobia or a fear of being gay or recognized as being a gay person
Compliance with social norms and family and peer expectations
Holding the belief that homosexuality is abnormal or unnatural and believing that marriage will cure same-sex attractions
Growing up within a strongly religious family or ethnic culture that views homosexuality as immoral or wrong
The growing acceptance of a diversity of relationships other than traditional marriage is providing a safer environment for same-sex attracted men to create lives that are more consistent with their social, sexual and relationship preferences. Legislation has been changed in some states to recognize same-sex relationships and remove areas of discrimination. However, there is more work to be done, particularly in relation to the right of same-sex couples to have children and raise families
