Stress - It Makes You Gay

It would seem so.
We have tried here at politicsjunkie to be sympathetic to Mark Oaten and his family. It can't be much fun to be the wife or child of a disgraced politician, even if he is only a LibDem.
However, we just cannot let Mrs Oaten's exclusive interview with Hello magazine pass by without comment.
In among the usual 'I was devestated' blurb and the pretty pictures of the brave little woman 'at home' is one of the most fascinating comments I have read in a long time.
For those of us who are keen to understand the mysteries of sexuality, it seems Mrs Oaten has a unique hypothesis on what forms our sexual behaviour.
Visiting the same male prostitute over a period of months, having full anal sex with said rent boy, suggesting he arrange a threesome with another young man, then performing some pretty risque sex acts with them, is apparently ALL just a symptom of stress.
Next time I am down GAY club I must remember that. "Try not to let life get on top of you, guys! If only you were less pressured in your work environment! Then you would be happily married and living with a wife and kids in Winchester!"
I could not beleive that this woman could stand up and baldly assert that the reason, THE reason that her husband was having sex with rent boys is because of stress.
Stress pushes all sorts of buttons, according to Mrs Oaten.
I dont really know whether to feel sorry for this woman or to laugh at her.
