Hah! if only i could come out to my parents... my mum is a fundamental catholic who believes one day i'll become a priest -_- and my dad believes homosexuality is some kind of illness... twats! To be honest i'm just waiting for university then i may consider coming out as I wouldn't be dependent on my parents much.

I started to come out to people in Janurary 2007.
My parents and some of my closest friends were first to hear it from me.
They were ALL very accepting and understanding (what a relief).


My older brother, Joe, came back from college this June 16, in time for father's day. He was the only person I had left to tell. When I told him, he just hugged me tight and said "hey you're my little brother, I don't see you any different, it's no problem. If anyone gives you grief, tell me and I'll handle it."

I felt so good, I love him and I told him I do.

my parents know, and i just started hanging out with a new group of friends who already suspected. last night they asked me on msn and i just said yeah. they were cool. but they agreed not to tell anyone else at school, cos i'll probably get battered. hey ho
"K"

This topic makes me think of an even cooler question: Do your friends' parents know you're gay? lol!

lol thats a good question! I think friends tend not to say though your own parent might

Yeah most of my friends know, family no point unless i find someone . Very few of them guessed it which i was happy about as i think i'm relatively straight acting.

Everyone "thinks" they know I'm gay, and ultimately they're right. Though I haven't fully confirmed my sexuality as of yet. Not really sure what I'm waiting for..

I'm glad they don't know. My friends for the most part would be very un-accepting, and my parents would be too.

I'm out to my best friend, dunno if it shapes well My parents don't know

I haven't come out yet to my parents... My mom and dad would probably understand it, but my stepfather is so homophobic... I remember once he saw a gay couple kiss, and he threw a stone at them ... I just don't know how to...
