Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Doomed Grooms: Gay Husbands of Straight Wives is a self-help book both for women who discover that their husbands are gay and for gay men who are ready to come out to their wives. Written by counselor Bonnie Kaye, the national expert in the field of straight/gay marriages, Doomed Grooms is a follow-up of her first book, Is He Straight? A Checklist for Women Who Wonder.
Topics covered include women's sexual and self-esteem, the effect of the Internet in luring men into the world of homosexuality, the controversy of changing a gay husband's sexuality, the myth of bisexuality, and the mourning stages after a marriage is over. Doomed Grooms also contains interviews with members of Kaye's online support group from different parts of the world, as well as interviews with two of Kaye's gay male peer counselors who help gay husbands in coming out to their wives. She also shares heart-felt letters from both straight wives and gay husbands to show the emotional impact on both sides.
It is estimated that over 3 million women in this country are or have been married to men who are homosexual. Doomed Grooms allows women to come to a sense of closure by helping them understand the different aspects of homosexuality their husbands display.
