"I would suggest all men take a break from any influences and truly get to know their own instincts before dragging other people into your misery."
How about we (societies) first stop socializing males from birth to fear homosexuality? Young males are taught that they shouldn't play with dolls, that they don't wear "girly" colors, that they behave in certain "manly" ways, that they not touch other men or show any affection to other men - and that's just a start. In school, some men are bullied if they exhibit any behaviors other than what groups of guys consider masculine. As adults, men can be fired or denied housing if they are perceived as being other than heterosexual. Even in societies where homosexuality is more or less acceptable (the U.S., for example), we still hear the occasional celebrity or politician utter a gay slur. Many religions still don't accept anything other than an idealized version of heterosexuality. I could go on and on with examples.
Now, we get to those gray areas - bisexuality; men who identify as straight but are curious; men who identify as straight and pursue romantic and sexual relationships with women, but like looking at cocks; men who identify as straight but like to wear their wives' underwear when she's shopping. These men are persecuted by some on both sides - people who identify as straight, and people who identify as gay. The former because they don't understand such behavior. The latter who believe that anyone who has ever noticed a penis must indeed by gay.
So, it's not as easy as taking "a break from any influences." You're asking many of these guys to turn the switch off on decades of their own socialization, peer pressure, and guilt. Many men succumb to fierce social and familial pressure to marry women - even though they might have homosexual or other urges. They marry women, and after years of a less-than-fulfilling marriage, start exploring surreptitiously some of their urges - all the while feeling guilt and shame.
Certainly, many women may not be comfortable in a relationship with a man who is bisexual or has other than purely heterosexual urges (although, I tend to think such men are unicorns - quite rare). And, yes, men should be encouraged to explore their urges - but this encouragement should start as part of their early sex education. Thinking that a 30 or 40 year old man can just step back and understand fully his sexual orientation after decades of socialization just isn't realistic - it's more likely to be a journey for him than a light bulb suddenly turning on.
