The associate editor wishes to clarify his earlier comments:

The widespread belief that homosexuality is commonly monogamous, or capable of being so, is a MYTH. Yes, I have tried to avert my gaze from gay men, but I can’t help myself. Nice play on words, John.

Why are you certain of cases of homosexual monogamy that you know are real? Have they revealed the details of their sex lives to you? Of course, I’m sure the homosexual friends that you have would volunteer the truth if they are not physically monogamous (as opposed to emotionally). Right?

But answering the “basic question” you pose, I ask this: Why is it up to the rest of us to solve the “practical problems they face” that come as the result of their own behavior, which most people don’t recognize as proper?
