Gay Conservative Guy Benson Getting Married To Boyfriend Starting What Parents Have

Fox News conservative political pundit Guy Benson passively retaliated against radical conservative philosophy when he came out in 2015. He made a crucial decision in his love life in 2018, partly inspired by the relationship of his parents.  

Comes Out As Gay In 2015; His Sexual Orientation Just Footnote In His Life

Establishing himself as a person who would rather tackle affairs such as "nuclearized Iran" and "degrading Obamacare," Benson, in a 2015 Buzzfeed interview, exhibits his disinterest in knowing one's sexual orientation. He shows a similar indifferent attitude in a Fox News viral interview in 2018.

In the interview, he insists people to cease punishing 'wrong thinking' regarding sexuality while exhaling his rank of priorities as progressive given the context of a free country. He says,

"Let's debate issues and stop trying to punish 'wrong thinking'. I'm a Christian, a patriotic American and a free-market, shrink-the-government conservative who happens to be gay. That's how I choose to rank my priorities. You know what that's called? It's called progress."

Benson first came out as gay in the 2015 Buzzfeed interview just before his book release but implied he wouldn't portray himself as a typical gay rights activist - out of respect towards his conservative roots. He said:

“Gay rights is not something that dominates my attentions — or my passions — and that may seem incongruous, that may seem counterintuitive to a lot of people,” “but the issues that I care about most undergird the reasons why I’m a conservative and have been forever and will be a conservative moving forward.”

Benson later casually talked about his sexuality, writing "Guy here. So I'm gay...," in his 2015 book, End of Discussion: How the Left's Outrage Industry Shuts Down Debate, Manipulates Voters, and Makes America Less Free (and Fun). He co-authored the book with Mary Katharine Ham, one of his acquaintances from Fox News.

Mysterious Dating Life; Gets Engaged Out Of Nowhere

The radical right-wing political editor announced his engagement on 26 May 2018 through pictures he shared on Instagram. 

In the post, he shared multiple pictures of him alongside his boyfriend Adam Wise while they shared a quality time in Versailles, France. According to the post made by Guy, the pair were in France when Guy popped the question to his long-time boyfriend Adam.
