This study examined the marriages of 26 couples in which the husband was bisexual. The subjects were a non-clinical sample married for at least two years and intending to continue their marriages. The sample was, overall, highly educated and earned concomitantly high incomes. Subjects were administered the Klein Sexual Orientation Grid and a research questionnaire to determine successful or problematic aspects of their marriages. Subjects were, for the most part, satisfied with the quality of their marriages, sexually active within the marriages, and open about the husband's homosexual behavior. A high-level of sexual activity within the marriage, open and direct communication, a valued friendship, previous counseling or psychotherapy, cognitive flexibility, and financial independence contributed to the success of these marriages. The husbands reported a great deal of ambiguity about their homosexual behavior, and the couples reported intense conflict dealing with their open marriage styles.
本研究调查了26对夫妻的婚姻状况，其中丈夫为双性恋者。研究对象为非临床样本，他们结婚至少两年且打算维持婚姻关系。总体而言，样本受教育程度高，收入也相应较高。研究人员向研究对象发放了克莱因性取向量表和一份调查问卷，以确定其婚姻中成功或存在问题的方面。研究对象大多对婚姻质量感到满意，在婚姻中性生活活跃，并且对丈夫的同性恋行为持开放态度。婚姻中的高频率性活动、开放直接的沟通、珍贵的友谊、先前接受过的咨询或心理治疗、认知灵活性以及经济独立，这些因素促成了这些婚姻的成功。丈夫们表示对自己的同性恋行为存在很大的困惑，而这些夫妻报告称在应对开放式婚姻模式时存在激烈冲突。
