23. I think decades ago you'd be more likely to find this
because gay people needed the cover just to exist in society. Or they were in denial about their own sexuality. I remember when homosexuality was looked on as a mental disorder--my parents even had gay friends who regularly visited shrinks to find a "cure". I believe that one "cure" was to get married and raise a family. As society becomes more informed and enlightened about homosexuality, I feel that you will see fewer and fewer marriages of deception.
