HOW TO COPE WHEN YOU'RE GAY AND LONELY
How Are You Supposed to Deal Wh Gay Lonels? Lonels and the Celibate Gay Christian. I don't believe there's a one-size-fs-all liftyle for every gay/lbian Christian, but for myself personally, I feel that I may be lled to celibacy.
For that reason, I felt pelled to share this post by the thor of the dissertatn “Lonels and the Celibate, Gay Christian. ” TL;DR: Though many gay/lbian/same-sex attracted Christians are enuraged to pursue lifelong celibacy by the Church, many of their church don't have the same support for the celibate liftyle as they do for married upl.
In the words of one of the study's participants: “…we have got the theologil reasong down pat, terms of the fact that gay people shouldn’t be gettg married and havg sex. ” Asi om a lack of stutnal stctur of support, a general lack of social belongg was also monly reported, as celibate gay Christians felt held at a distance not only due to their sexualy but also due to their sglens/celibacy.
