In an interview published in the February 2011 issue of ''[[GQ (magazine)|GQ]]'', Haggard said, "I think that probably, if I were 21 in this society, I would identify myself as a bisexual," adding that "Just like you're a heterosexual but you don't have sex with every woman that you're attracted to, so I can be who I am and exclusively have sex with my wife and be perfectly satisfied."<ref name="CBS-GQ">{{Cite news|url=http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-31749_162-20029939-10391698.html |publisher=CBS News |title=Ted Haggard Says He's Bisexual |date=January 28, 2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110130000422/http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-31749_162-20029939-10391698.html |archive-date=January 30, 2011 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.gq.com/news-politics/newsmakers/201102/pastor-ted-haggard |work=GQ |first=Kevin |last=Roose |title=The Last Temptation of Ted |date=February 2011}}</ref>
