‘I DON’T WANT TO LIKE OTHER MEN’: MY WIFE’S TAKEN ME BACK BUT I N’T STOP BEG GAY

Rearch published by Project Sigma 1993 shows that 9 percent of gay men had their first homosexual experience by the age of 10, 19 percent by the age of 12, and 35 per cent by the age of 14.
Yet most gay mpaign groups seem only terted the human rights of the over-16s. “There’s nothg much for young gays like me”, says Lee. Lee first realised he was gay at the age of eight.
