” In my experience, gay men today don’t marry women.”
It’s certainly nowhere near as common as it was a couple generations ago when most gays were closeted, but it does still happen in 2023. A friend recently told me about a gay male co-worker who had relocated to San Francisco from his native England. Long story short, the limey bastard had a (female) wife and 7-year-old son back in the U.K. whom he’d abandoned to live his dream life in S.F. Sad, but the wife and kid are undoubtedly better off without him in the long run.
Another one. Internet personality Mr. Beast, one of his co-stars did the same thing. Even became Trans. They’re from North Carolina so he was probably in the closet growing up.
She says she had only one minor clue that something was "off." Anyhow, she immediately freaked out, hummed a cast iron pan at his head which missed, then threw him out and that was that. Freaked the poor woman out for a long, long time. Guy's still smoking the pole as far as anyone knows.
