It obviously was tough to accept so he became very angry. I believe this is where all his anger comes from. Then along comes Sarno and magically Howard is cured. "I'm the straightest man I know!"..."I'm a vagina man!"..."I love sex with women so much I can't hold out!".
He's still trying to convince himself. Even his marriage/arrangement with Beth is just a "Look, I married a model, I have to be straight!." Everyone can see it but Howard, because he refuses to see it, at least publicly. Who knows what goes on behind closed doors.
