my family knows, my brothers are cool with it because i bring home the cute girls, and my dad just wants me to be happy and he is glad that he dosent have to worrie about me being pregant any time soon , my mom is somewhat dissapointed because i couldnt go to my senior prom in high school because we didnt have many girls like me in highschool , they found out when by junior year they had never seen me even try to date a guy , and my dad caught me making out with the neighbors daughter who was a grade under me . unfortunatly it was a one time thing she didnt like it like i did

Yes and no. LOL. My mom was the first to know, then both my aunts and uncles, then my brother. I haven't told anyone else because my family is asian on one side (sooo not accepting) and hillbilly on the other (again, sooo not accepting) I don't think I will ever be able to tell them.. crying

nope my parents dont know
and they are not gonna find out for a while
thats only because they would flip if i told them
and they'd probly kick me out onto the street
so im planning on telling them either when i never have to see them again or accidently if they catch me making out with a guy or best of all on their death beds

I haven't told my family. I don't know for sure why I should... It's none of their business. It's not like I am afraid of telling them, I just don't know why it should bother them or why I should tell them. It's my own life and not theirs...

I agree with the whole idea of one's love life not being anybody's business. However, I am the type of person that needs to share important information with the ones that I love. If I had a bf, my family would be the first to know, my friends would be next in line.

I want my family to be able to share my life completely. I don't want to have to censor myself or change pronouns just to please people.

But then again...that's just my opinion. You have to play with the cards that you are dealt. If you are in a situation where you can't or don't find it necessary to out yourself...then more power to you. You do what you have to, you know?

I would have to agree with WiccanJoe, that's exactly how I am too..

Though I can sure as hell see where Lalobee is coming from..

I'm just the kind of person that always tells everything to their parents.. ^^ And I'm fine with that.. The reason being that parents will always be there for you, and friends might not.. It's the whole unconditional love thing ^^

Never be ashamed of your sexual affiliation!

Not my extended family, but my immediate family knows. My dad couldn't care less (though it's more of a gender bias thing than anything else, if it were my brother who was bi instead of me, he'd have a fit instead of shrugging it off). My mom isn't really comfortable with it (though it has been over a year since I told her rolleyes ) but she's still really supportive. My sibs really don't care, if anything, it's made them a tad more sensitive to GBLT issues (One of my brothers used to be pretty homophobic, but he got over it after I came out, and my little sister started telling her friends to stop saying things like "that's so gay"). Good kids (Well, for the most part wink )

It's great having them know, it's a real load off not to have to keep it a secret. Just little things, like if I have to go somewhere for GSA, I can get a ride and not worry about it. Or I can wear my pride necklaces without having to tuck them in my shirt when my dad is around. And, even though I'm fairly good at it, I hate lying, so I'm glad I don't have to.

Hey
Uh, my philosophy is that the family needs to know, only if they go looking for an answer like that.

Whose parents walk up and say, "Hey Danny, I think you need to change the cat boxes, they're getting dirty... OH, and by the way are you bi?"
*With his nose pinched by one hand, and the other scooping out a pile of a skum*
"Yah, Bmomb!"

If something comes up, like you're hooking up for a long term relationship, don't go hide in an ally, and don't let them see you together at Chippendales. If it comes up, it's something they have to accept. And if you get kicked out, live with your hubby.

No, my parents don't know. But if my parents ask, I'll definately tell the truth. I'm not too ashamed, it's just something that people only need to find out if they go looking for it. In all honesty they'll probubly just give me a bunch of s**t about it. In fact, the only thing that may bother my Mom(my Dad wouldn't mind too much) is letting it get around her side of the family. Again, people only need to know, if they come looking for it, and make sure your parents/family/friends, know it!

If it's something holding weight on your back, make sure to unload it on to somebody important, like a friend or sibling if you don't think your parents should know. But it's a good thing for em to know, especially if they notice a rainbow band around your wrist ^_--

Short Summary
1. Don't Lie
2. Don't be Ashamed
3. Don't boast, brag, or let others gossip.
4. Don't kill yourself over it. Let the good guys know.

Just a little wisdom I've picked up on my short time "Out"... And I think I got it down. I hoped I helped.
Love You!
Danny

P.S. I need friends to talk to, believe it or not. Give me a call, add me to friends, PM me!
