I definitely hate George Santos but are we implying that gay men have never been married to women?

> It’s entirely possible that Santos, who claims he has “never experienced discrimination in the Republican Party,” has been living comfortably as an openly gay man for, as he says, more than a decade. People get married for countless reasons. But Santos’ situation is curious because he never disclosed his divorce to voters, and never reconciled his prior marriage to a woman—which ended just 12 days before he established his first congressional campaign—with his claims of being an out and proud gay Republican.

You hate George Santos but you think this is the one thing so far he's probably being truthful about? The implication is that the narrative is suspect.

I think it’s more that he’s been saying he has been out for a decade. That seems not true if he’s been married to a woman. It would be unusual anyway
