Young Obama's homosexual fantasies
In a letter to a former girlfriend, the former president expressed his desire to "make love to men daily, but in the imagination."
Newsmax reported that former President Barack Obama had gay sexual fantasies on a daily basis as a young man, according to a letter he wrote to a girlfriend when he was 21 years old.
The former president wrote about his desire to "make love to men daily, but in the imagination" in a letter written in 1982 that was obtained by The New York Post.
In the notorious letter written to Alex McNear while both were studying at Occidental College, he related that "My mind is androgynous to a great extent, and I hope to make it more so until I can think in terms of people, not women as opposed to men. But, in returning to the body, I see that I have been made a man, and physically in life, I choose to accept that contingency."
In 1992, Barack Obama married his wife Michelle. They have two daughters, Malia and Sasha.
Obama's Democratic predecessor Bill Clinton signed the Defense of Marriage Act on Sept. 21, 1996, to define and protect the institution of marriage between a woman and a man. The federal law was passed by Congress, although it was later overturned in 2015 when the Supreme Court approved same-sex marriage throughout the U.S. and declared any prohibition on this type of union to be unconstitutional.
That same year, 2015, the Obama administration unveiled a rainbow-colored array of lights over the White House in celebration of the Supreme Court's decision to guarantee the constitutional right to same-sex marriage.
