On Sunday night, TLC aired My Husband's Not Gay, a special "reality documentary" featuring a group of Mormon men (and their wives) who experience SSA, or "same sex attraction," but choose not to act on their gay urges. Even before the show premiered, more than , people signed a petition advocating for its cancelation, while the president of GLAAD, the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, told The Hollywood Reporter that the show "is downright irresponsible" and "putting countless fresh LGBT people in harm's way."
