Skyler Sorensen and his wife Amanda have a lot in common.
For starters, they’re both attracted to men. But Skyler claims that being gay hasn’t gotten in the way of their blissful marriage — or their sex life.
“That sexual attraction came from, I mean, trial-and-error and a lot of practice,” the 25-year-old told The Post, laughing with his wife, also 25.

“We have our struggles of course, like every marriage, but me being gay hasn’t been … the biggest issue in our marriage,” Skyler said. “It’s been communication, normal marriage things.”
“Do I wish that Skylar wasn’t gay? Yeah, sometimes,” Amanda said. “But I wouldn’t want to be with anyone else other than him.”
The Utah duo insists their marriage is un-extraordinary. But the internet begs to differ: A tweet containing a screenshot from Skyler’s account recently went viral, along with thousands of shocked comments and 60,000 likes.
“Being in a mixed-orientation marriage is like going to Disneyland and having some people tell you you’d be better off at Six Flags,” Sorensen’s post read. “Six Flags may have more rollercoasters, but it’ll never beat the happiest place on earth.”
