He's trying to justify this behavior and not be classified with being gay. They want the best of both worlds. It's greed, it's grouped in the same perverted mindset as child molestation, rape, etc..He's trying to justify this behavior and not be classified with being gay. They want the best of both worlds. It's greed, it's grouped in the same perverted mindset as child molestation, rape, etc.. If it looks like a duck, and it walks like a duck, than it's a duck. Who do these men think they are fooling? I get it, you can sleep with another man for sex, but you run back home to your wife, or girlfriend, and you say, "Oh I'm not gay!" Yeah right! This whole situation is a hot mess.If it looks like a duck, and it walks like a duck, than it's a duck. Who do these men think they are fooling?

You have to be super careful. Why invest so much of yourself then to find out your man is gay? It really does turn my stomach. The thought of his thing that was in my thing and then in some other man. GROSS!!!!! I'm going to go throw up!!!You have to be super careful. Why invest so much of yourself then to find out your man is gay? It really does turn my stomach. The thought of his thing that was in my thing and then in some other man. GROSS!!!!! I'm going to go throw up!!! I'm a single black woman, and I wonder if I'll ever be able to find a straight husband that's not on the DL. And, it's getting to the point to where as much as I love my black men ; I'm, for the first time, considering seriously dating interracially. Yes, there are still straight ones out there, but very few. Now, not only do we have to compete with other women for them, now we have to compete with DL men trying to turn them on to the lifestyle. What a shame!I'm a single black woman, and I wonder if I'll ever be able to find a straight husband that's not on the DL.

Stephen Holden 2005

5 Sample Magazine & Newspaper Titles About White Bisexuality Many Couples Must Negotiate Terms Of Brokeback Marriages On the whole these are not marriages of convenience or cynical efforts to create cover. Gay and bisexual men continue to marry for complex reasons, many impelled not only by discrimination, but also by wishful thinking, the layered ambiguities of sexual love and authentic affection. ''These men genuinely love their wives,'' said Joe Kort, a clinical social worker. Many, he said, considered themselves heterosexual men with homosexual urges that they hoped to confine to private fantasy life. ''They fall in love with their wives, they have children, they're on a chemical, romantic high, and then after about seven years, the high falls away and their gay identity starts emerging,'' Mr. Kort said. ''They don't mean any harm.''

6 Pitying Language I sincerely hope that Oprah uses this opportunity to educate her viewers on how difficult it is for someone to reveal their sexual identity and that family members need to love and support them even when they do not understand exactly what they are going through.I sincerely hope that Oprah uses this opportunity to educate her viewers on how difficult it is for someone to reveal their sexual identity and that family members need to love and support them even when they do not understand exactly what they are going through. If someone in my family were to "come out" I would be shocked, but I would be accepting and supportive. A person's sexual preference does not define who they are, it's what's inside that truly matters. We want people to stop with the racism & start to accept people for who they are regardless of their race or nationality, then why can't we do the same for sexuality?If someone in my family were to "come out" I would be shocked, but I would be accepting and supportive.

I have had the experience of both of my parents (separately and years apart) "coming out". My father was very nervous and now that I am older and have lived in the world where so many closed minded people dwell, I see why. My response to him even at the age of 11 or 12 was simply that I didn't care.I have had the experience of both of my parents (separately and years apart) "coming out".

Maybe these things wouldn't happen if homosexuals were accepted. If they were allowed to live like everyone else, than they wouldn't be pressured to lie and be someone they are not.The guest, like many homosexuals, was trying to hide his true identity by marrying a woman and living a "normal life".

Please understand that a person must be ready to accept themselves before they can ask somebody else too. Maybe your husband didn't accept himself for who he really was at the time you got married. But through time, things became more clear to him and he learned that he wouldn't be truly happy until he became who he really was.Please understand that a person must be ready to accept themselves before they can ask somebody else too.

7 Attraction Behavior Identification Sexuality is a combination of... I AM NOT GAY BECAUSE I am not white I am not white I am not a sissy, a punk, or a fem I am not a sissy, a punk, or a fem I am the pitcher and not the catcher I am the pitcher and not the catcher I only fool with guys occasionally I only fool with guys occasionally Im not in love with or looking to marry a guy Im not in love with or looking to marry a guy Im not going to claim that demon.. its a struggle Im not going to claim that demon.. its a struggle

8 Dont Ask, Dont Tell Threat To The Black Family Threat To Black Masculinity Homosexuality As Foreign To Black America Adam and Eve, Not Adam and Steve Sacred Canopy And Rhetorical Gay-Bashing Homophobia vs. Homo-tolerance When Does The Bible Talk About Lesbians? Black Homophobia Religious Homophobia Sources Of Stigma While Blacks Are Fighting for Respect, Gays Are Not In The Army! While I believe that no sin is greater than the other, I want to know how Dr. Pitt feels about being an active member in the church with homosexuality being such a huge sin of emphasis in the black church. Does he ever feel guilty for his homosexuality? In the black community, I feel that we have struggled for so long to be respected. That theyre still not getting much respect makes them more belligerent to the gay community. Its almost as if this model image we (blacks) have worked so hard for is being diminished by homosexuality. The loving, masculine, protective black males are being replaced by these gay men who blacks feel cannot fulfill the role of breadwinner, protector, provider, husband, or father. And then, there are so many lesbian mothers whose sons are growing up around two womenwhere is the male figure? Some blacks have no religious base at all and simply think homosexuality is nasty. Anatomically, opposite sexual organs fit and were meant to be. While Blacks Are Fighting for Respect, Gays Are Not In The Army!
