He’s playing both sides

He’s playing both sides

By Miss Kes 

The story was told to All Woman a few years ago about a churchwoman, newly married, who came home early from work one day to find her husband sleeping in their bed, in the arms of another man.

It took years of counseling to get her past that betrayal, especially as there had been no signs that her husband was bisexual.

How would you react to finding out that your man was not only unfaithful, but bisexual?

Kerry:

I would end that relationship immediately. One main reason is my religious beliefs, and there’s also my personal standards. That is way too nasty for my imagination. I think it would be best to not even be friends.

Brandy:

End it! I am not that open sexually. I prefer the traditional way of relationships and intimacy. I despise what is really going on nowadays and how receptive women are to these types of men. It is deplorable.

MG:

I am open to anything, but I would rather not find out because it would somewhat affect how I related to him, so it is best that I don’t know.

FM:

No, wrong move. Once I find out I would go get tested immediately for every single disease. Once you are that open sexually, you are twice as lethal.

Cathy:

I know someone who is actually with someone who is into both men and women. She seems chill about it but I am totally uncomfortable because apart from it being immoral, it is also a major health risk. I am not sure I could walk that street. I would prefer to be single, to be straight up.
