I see a lot of you had came out to your parents, I really admire you guys, At my city and culture, it is best not to let anyone know or you'll be absolutely dead. My dad used to say "Ha! If I found my son GAY, I'd rather kill him." It is hard to keep it all inside, anyway, how about you guys~?

Heh, I tell some friends but mainly only over messenger as for parents I could probably tell mom though my dad is rather religious and I'm not taking chance either way >.>

I've told my parents, two bi-sexual friends, a gay friend, a my best friend. Everyone except for my parents were completely okay with it. My parents are conservative when it comes to homosexuality, and my dad is very old fashioned. When I came out to them, I lost all their trust, they went into denial, and I felt like I had to make myself at least bi-sexual. Non-family members are alot more accepting, but it can still be very hard. "Try not. Do or do not, there is no try."

some people know... my entire history class (someone asked on the Day of Silence), my camp friends, and my mom. I have to be careful about what i say to who! I feel really bad though, because some of my really close friends don't know, and i don't know how to tell them. i feel bad that i didn't tell them first.

But so far only like five friends know about me, thinking about telling a sixth friend too because he knows some stuff about me that most don't know and he hasn't judged me for it.

I'm kind of already out to everyone.....
Of course, it seems I have a bit of what could be called a gay accent, and I didn't know that until today, when had to record our voices in biology.....
And, well, there was always that whole Barbie thing in kindergarten.....
Everyone in my family has been okay with it, though there are obviously homophobes at school.... But the worst treatment I've gotten is having an eraser thrown at me (I think...?) when I was walking by, and I was so tired, I was just sorta like, screw this, and kept walking.........Ever seen a purple monkey? ... Yeah, me neither.

That must be hard to live with.. I feel for you.
Fortunately for me, though, no one really cares. I think just about everyone at school knows. I don't know how. I certainly haven't told them. But I don't really care. If they have a problem with it, that's their funeral.
With my family, it's a different matter. I have two sisters. I'm sure my eldest sister wouldn't mind - I have a sneaky suspision that she's a lesbian herself - but my other sister definitely would mind, I think. My parents, too, would have great difficulties coming to terms with it. My mum has strong opinions that no one knows they're gay until they're an adult. Of course, that opinion is heavily flawed in many, many ways (when do you become an adult? what do you do up until that point?) but she's too narrow-minded to see that. As for Dad, he just goes with whatever Mum says, so there's no hope there, either.
In any case, I sometimes wish they all knew, but it's not a big deal for me keeping it hidden. I don't tell my parents anything. I mean anything. So hiding this from them won't hurt either.

Mate, that's intense aye. I'm lucky that my parents don't really have a problem with their kids being gay. The most uncomfortable moment I can remember after I came out was mum coming into my bedroom one morning, crying, and said "I'm worried you won't find someone and be lonely..." Broke my heart.

I have a gay brother who is clearly gay and everyone knows in my family and everyone is fine about it BUT im the only other son and i dont want people to be all like "well there goes thr family name" sorta thing lol. Im bisexual so its not as bad but still. Plus the idea of them knowing i have sexual thoughts and shit makes me shudder. All my friends know, i wish i could tell my work friends but my sister works at my work lol.
I wish i could tell them but my body just wouldnt let me!!! "I wanna take you away Lets escape into the music DJ let it play I just can't refuse it Like the way you do this Keep on rockin to it Please don't stop the Please don't stop the Please don't stop the Music..."

nearly all my friends know, and most people at school. most people just assume it anyway so there isn't much point in hiding it. hahaha.
two of my closest cousins know, but not my parents yet. i think they might have an idea, but i haven't confirmed their suspicions lol.
