Joseph, I have a question for you. Not trying to score political points on it, but I am curious about the halachic AND moral implications of this situation. I’m stating up front that I don’t think coercion is the right thing to do in any marriage circumstance. Just my opinion, not trying to convince anyone otherwise.
So as we know there are people who have an inclination or attraction to the same gender. (I am not getting into the whole therapy discussion. Not relevant here). Some of these people, in our community, recognize the inclination, also recognize the prohibition, and abide by the Torah’s perspective, holding back those inclinations and not acting on them (I am also not getting into the discussion of the impact of such suppression on the individual).
Some of these people will choose to marry, become parents, and live their lives in the chareidi community while completely adhering to the prohibition. Others will completely adhere to the prohibition, but can not or do not find themselves able to have a marriage with the opposite gender.
They are good, God fearing people who are successfully adhering to a Torah prohibition. In this case, in your opinion, is it right, necessary or advisable for a Beis Din to force them to marry, as has been demonstrated a Beis Din has the power to do?
