The Rubin Report Tackles TLC's 'My Husband's Not Gay' Controversy<\/b>
\nRubin Report host Dave Rubin sounded off on the controversy<\/a> surrounding TLC’s “My Husband’s Not Gay<\/a>,” a new special which focuses on a group of Mormon men<\/a> who say they have chosen to marry women<\/a> even though they are attracted to other men<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Rubin minced few words when it came to his stance on the new show, while guests Ana Kasparian<\/a> of The Young Turks and Turner Classic Movies’ Ben Mankiewicz<\/a> offered slightly differing views. <\/p>\n

“I actually don’t mind this reality show as much as others, because I think that it does shine a light on a really serious issue,” Kasparian said. “I actually got really upset at the women<\/a> who know that their husband is gay<\/a> and they’re enabling this denial of who they really are by marrying them … They’re not doing the right thing.” <\/p>\n

Pointing to stigmas that exist around homosexuality and masculinity, Mankiewicz added, “I believe it is sincere, and I believe they think they can do it.” <\/p>\n

At the time this story was published, an online petition calling for the cancellation<\/a> of “My Husband’s Not Gay” had drawn over 90,000 supporters. <\/p>\n
