One man has reportedly just found out that he and his wife, the
mother to his three children, are half-siblings -- but he has yet to
tell her the news.
In a letter, a husband reveals that he and his wife were both "born to lesbians" -- he to a single woman and she to a couple.
Unlike
his wife, who'd met her biological father when she was 18, the man
never felt the need to find his sperm donor until recently. His findings
have left him in turmoil.
It turns out, his mother and his
wife's mothers had gone to different sperm banks, but, as the man
writes, "it appears so did our father."
He describes his anxiety in telling his wife and even that he is considering keeping the discovery a secret.
"I can't help but think 'This is my sister' every time I look at her now," he writes.
Because
the writer is anonymous, skepticism surrounds the letter. One reader
suggests that the story is "a fiction pushing a political agenda."
