This is just one more example of how internalised or externalised homophobia is hurting not just gays, but also the rest of the world.
This comes in the wake of, or preceding such programmes as My Husband's NOT Gay on TLC.

I don't see how this has to do with him having internalized homophobia. He is a dishonest man who holds his wife (and probably everyone else) in contempt. He knew he had risky sex before he got with his wife and he didn't care, it sounds like. He had no business putting his death wish on her.

Trying to hide his sexuality is a symptom of internalized homophobia...trying to run away from yourself because you don't want to be who you are. It is self hate....
Some people don't actually consciously realize they are gay...or are bisexual...that is different.
I have some compassion for them but frankly my sympathies go to the strong ones and the fighters in life...I respond with more empathy to a survivor than I do a victim....
Unfortunately...he made someone else pay for his self deception...and they both have to live with that. On top of that...he was a liar and took vows and made promises he did not keep to someone who trusted him.

I'm keeping my mouth shut on this. Nothing I have to say will surprise anyone and help no one.
