Do you know Marg, I used to think how unfair it was on the wives of married gay men. I still do to a certain extent but to be honest are they any different from those men that commit bigamy or pretend they're single when they're not? All these men (not just gay ones) are all liars and cheats and use these women for their own means. They don't appear to love or have any respect for the women they string along. The only difference I would say is that it's hard enough to lose a partner to a member of the opposite sex, but to lose a partner to another man/or women (yes women are just as capable of doing this as men) it can leave some thinking that they're not good enough or that they've 'turned them gay'.
From my little knowledge, most gay people will tell you that they knew there was something 'different' about them from a very early age. I understand years ago it was difficult coming out and today it still is to a certain degree, but is it fair when you know you're gay to marry someone just to try and fit in? In an ideal world, no gay person would suffer from homophobia but we don't live in an ideal world
My personal opinion (and it is just mine) is that better they stay 'single' and have a secret relationship and be happy if they themselves choose not to be openly gay.
