Heh, I've only come out to about 3 people, and I've already gotten two of those. I have a friend who I think'll give me at least 5 or 6 of those... "Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law. The commandments, 'You shall not commit adultery, You shall not kill, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,' and any other commandment, are summed up in this sentence, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law." RSV Romans 13:8-10
The above words are not only the supreme defense against bible pushers discriminating against homosexuals, but also the most moving and possibly the only worthwile text in the bible.

I've heard anything from
"Alright" "Whatever" "Uh huh"
To
*shocked silence* "WAIT, REPEAT THAT AGAIN" "Nuh uh!"
It really varies. Usually it doesn't sink in for about a day or so though, after which time you'll usually start getting some real questions. -Be the change you want to see in the world- Ghandi

There's other reactions, but I can't remember them all. Thankfully, everyone has taken it very well.

Do i have a cute ass???? I mean since u know these things do i?" then he grabbed my hand and said lets go somewhere else then he told me that i should not do anything because he loved me, as a friend damn, and that didnt change anything....... i thought it did now he asks me if he as a cute ass every day and its quite entertaining to see how many wierd looks i get because he does it infront of ppl that dont know im gay and i always tell him its super sexy and i want it..... lol yeah so that was the happy coming out story now the other one is not so good........

The most annoying in my opinion is "What makes you say that you're gay?". Jeez, I wonder what makes me say that I like watching Southpark. Hmm?

I got "I don't dislike gay people, I just think it's gross." At least I got a positive "But you're still you and you're still cool". --TheArtifact

Haha! Some of those are absolutely hilarious!
I got some of the above and a few classics:
"What makes you think you're gay?" (my mum) "He's too camp to be gay" (my friend's mum in a discussion about who in our friendship group was most likely to be gay - this is hilarious because she still doesn't know and thinks I'm straight) "Great, so my first boyfriend was gay" (my ex-girlfriend, who is incredibly supportive and fine with the whole thing) "Do you fancy Calum?" - Calum is this uber-hot guy at school. I didn't even try and pretend on this one
And a great little snippet of coming out conversation:
Me: I need to tell you all [about 8 friends] something... Much trauma and me going "I can't say it" about 20 times Me: I'm gay Friends: We know Many hugs, reassurance etc. etc. while everyone looks thoroughly unsurprised Friends: You can't surprise us that easily Friend: So who do you fancy? Me: Tom Friends: biggest looks of surprise EVER
