Note:  The terms "straight spouse" and "gay spouse" are sometimes confusing to people not familiar with them.  We use the term "straight spouse" to describe an individual who is straight (i.e. heterosexual), but who is married/partnered to a gay (GLBT) individual, such as a straight woman to a gay man (or vice versa).  We use the term "gay spouse" to describe an individual who is married/partnered to an opposite-sex spouse, but who is gay (GLBT) themself.
