Boils down to elevating the male gay husband (because: homophobia!) above the female straight wife.

Another example of the verbal gymnastics of academic post modern word salad. Another reason I am glad I am now a professor emerita (meaning retired).

well I read it. wow, just wow. that makes me feel like saying marriage fraud ten times!

I think it is sour grapes. Why should the straight woman get the happiness of marriage and family life in alignment. No, minimise the pain of the tongqi and say it's their fault the closet exists anyway because it's due to homophobia. That doesn't make sense seeing as straight spouses tend to be gay friendly people.
