Book Overview

The discovery that one's husband is gay or bisexual is a surprise for which most women are totally unprepared. With no guidelines and few professionals able to provide adequate help, both partners, but especially the wives, are apt to feel enormous isolation and confusion. When Husbands Come Out of the Closet, based on the results of a landmark study and years of clinical experience, is a poignant and compassionate look at the conflicting emotions...

The best of its Kind!

I am a bisexual husband. i have been married four times, and each time i have tried to explain my proclivities to my wives, but they just don't get it. Maybe if they read this book they'd understand. i highly recommend this book.

When Husbands Come Out of the Closet

An absolute 'must read' for anyone in the field of social work or public health or questioning minds interested in justice and peace of mind about their or their partner's sexuality. Everyone, especially those who need to begin their search for equality and reality would benefit from this book. Social Workers need to get a handle on this book in order to provide the best possible information on this little talked about subject. This is definitely in line with the NASW's Code of Ethics. This book gives society an idea of how to address this complex psychosocial issue with compassion and justice.

A wonderful support for wives

This book has been wonderful. It opened up communciations between myself and my husband. He told me and we read this together. I don't know if we'll end up divorced or still married. But this book gives me a degree of hope. And it can help you stay the best of friends in a most difficult time. It really does state my feelings. I am not the only one and this is a real issue. It's unfortunate that wives like us are left with so little help and understanding. Our husbands have support systems, but we need them too. I hope this book helps others. It has helped me see how I feel and that I'm not alone. I just currently don't know the outcome yet...

EXCELLENT, SANITY-SAVING!!

After 16 years of marriage, the last few of which have been virtually celibate, I read this book with a suspicion but no proof of my husband's orientation. Everything in it seemed to confirm what was going on but my husband was not ready to acknowledge it himself. He finally came out to me and this book has been a lifeline. We're working things through and it's been ENORMOUSLY helpful to know others have been through this and survived. The book is clear and well-written, peppered with a wide variety of real-life cases, and it's my best friend right now. Thank you!

Required reading for any woman whose husband is gay.

This book has made me realize that I am not alone during this most difficult time in my life. It has given my feeelings legitimacy. I also gave this book to my parents when I came out of the closet and told them about my marriage.
