Abstract

The present study investigated ego integration, changed sexual behavior, and perceived social support in middle age and older adults who had been in a long-term relationship with the opposite sex prior to ‘coming out’. This research suggests that individuals who ‘come out’ later have difficulty accepting their sexual fluidity.
