To guide therapists working with sexual minority individuals considering entering in an other-gender relationship, we present data from 82 sexual minority, current Latter-day Saints in other-gender relationships, 155 sexual minority, former Latter-day Saints in same-gender relationships, and 123 cisgender/heterosexual, current Latter-day Saints in other-gender relationships. Results suggest that relative to cisgender/heterosexual individuals, sexual minority individuals (both in same- and other-gender relationships), report being less happy in their relationship, viewing porn and masturbating more often, and experiencing greater religious struggles. Sexual minority individuals in both same- and other-gender relationships reported happiness in their relationships and lives; however, the two groups differed in a variety of ways. We found that, on average, sexual minority individuals in other-gender relationships (a) have less satisfying sex lives, (b) somewhat follow church teachings about sexual practices, (c) experience conflict about their life choices, (d) nuance their religious views to distinguish between affirming and nonaffirming beliefs, (e) have difficult faith journeys, and (f) do not appear to experience mental health difficulties because of their relationship status. We encourage therapists to explore sexual, relational, and religious domains with their clients in helping each determine whether an other-gender relationship is possible for them.
