Why don't they quit complaining, and do like many of the greatest and most famous theatrical actors and actresses used to do?
It was an open secret that homosexual male actors would enter into public marriages with their counterpart lesbian female actresses, cohabit as man and wife, and sometimes even have children together.
They protected each other from the public's curiosity, and supported each other as best friends.
Each knew the other sought intimacy outside their "relationship" but their arrangement provided them both privacy, security, and acceptability by the public and fans.
Furthermore, it actually enabled both parties to procreate (which is a mitzvah) and pass on their genetic inheritance to the next generation.
Imperfect? -- Absolutely.
Living a "lie"? -- More or less true, but at least legally married, functioning in public as a married couple, and in my opinion that is better than a 100% full time homosexual lifestyle.
Many of the children from these marriages are as normal as anyone else, and feel that their parents were loving and wonderful to them -- if Daddy or Mommy left alone for a day or two it wasn't suspect, because such a lifestyle is expected from professional show business people.
People who are afflicted with these attractions know that they're not normal, so why shouldn't they at the very least enter into marriage with a counterpart who understands them and put forth a "respectable" public image?
These Orthodox Jewish men would be no less a sinner in finding themselves a frum dyke with the same issues, marrying, bearing children, and living publicly like man and wife. Their families would at least be able to face their communities and claim that their children were married with families.
Me? ... I'll leave the "burning in Hell' bit to be worked out between the homosexuals and Ha'Shem, and mind my own business when I see the lovely couple out together.
I remember my shock and disillusionment when being informed just two years ago, that a real "macho" actor, Gary Cooper, loved by America and considered a real tough guy, was one of Hollywood's most flaming fags off screen.
My point being made by mentioning this? -- What I never knew was just fine just so long as I admired the man's work and screen persona and considered his private life none of my affair.
Did I hear someone mention the married couple Robert Preston and Mary Martin?
No?
Must have just been the wind.
