Example : a friend of my former wife, who was a reporter in a Gay magazine, played being gay, dressed as a gay, went to gay bars - but he married and had 2 children .
In fact he was straight (well, maybe he had one gay experience or two just to be accepted in gay circles), and his wife and other intimate friends/family knew all along it was a charade just to be able to make a career in the gay press !
No, not in all cases. There are biologically homosexual men who do marry women.

Come on now. They're not going to let you know they're gay if they don't want to.

This is exactly what I don't get! If you're gay, how are you even performing in the first place? It just doesn't make sense to me....

I don't know about you, but if I was a girl and a guy wanted to go shoe shopping with me, I would think something isn't right .

That's pretty interesting! I wonder what happens when their parents come to visit.....

He just thought he would get over these feelings someday by living "the right way." He never acted on those feelings before or during his marriage, and his wife divorced him. Only one of his sons knows he is gay. His parents and siblings would disown him.
Basically the same thing as Tropical Trouble. I understand that some may have feelings for the same sex, but how are you performing on the opposite sex?

If your ex's friend had to "perform" to be accepted, this theory wouldn't work out, unless he wasn't in a normal state of mind.

Maybe the guy popped a Viagra in order to have sex. I'm sure it was a horrible experience for the man.

I'm pretty sure "sham marriages" are illegal. Be careful with that.

If you are truly gay. You will not get a boner when you see a woman's naked body. A gay man's ding dong will shrivel up or stay flaccid. I kid you not.
