“Shattered women” share stories of betrayal from their DL boyfriends
Grindr trolling for pics and hookups. They’re betraying their wives and girlfriends, too!A slew of so-called “shattered women” recently shared tales about their DL partners to the Daily Mail, expressing dismay over the lying and deception.
As the advice columnist Jana Hocking puts it, “While sexuality is a spectrum (it’s almost 2025, people!) women are, understandably, pretty devastated to learn their menfolk aren’t as loyal – or straight – as they had been led to believe.” (Clearly, these women have never logged onto the grid before, but nonetheless!)Subscribe to our newsletter for a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.The first trade-wife to write in laments she thought her boyfriend was the “alpha type,” indicating she buys into the most retrograde of gender norms.We’re off to a great start!“I started noticing something off,” she writes. “He was unusually distant, and then one night, I found a bank statement with charges from a very specific gay bar in Sydney.”The woman, who later found Snapchat messages between her “alpha boyfriend” and another man, says she felt like “the floor had been pulled out” from under her.
Meanwhile, her man was pulling it out for somebody else!He’s gay, she’s straight, and they’re happily married.While impropriety is never acceptable, it’s hard not to feel for the bros relegated to surreptitious D pics.
Their sketchy behavior is indicative of sexual repression. They may be curious about experimentation, but lack the freedom–either real or perceived–to act on their desires. “For men, the pressure to conform to traditional roles – straight, married, a father – can feel expected,” a therapist told the Daily Mail. “Over time, that suppression builds tension, and in some cases, it leads to actions or revelations that shock their partners.”He closed with a striking point. “Curiosity doesn’t magically vanish just because someone says, ‘I do.'”As queer people, we’ve.
