Hello,
I have decided to bring up the ''Letting parents know your sexuality'' topic..
Just recently, I confronted my parent's about my sexuality. The only family members who knew my sexuality was my, Granny and Cousin (Jason) -- Because Jason is gay also.
You're probably saying inside, how does this person have the bravery and guts to confront his parents about his sexuality, well when you think hard and sore about the situation, You need to let them know one day.
Perhaps, Your parents have asked you questions such as; why have you not had a girlfriend? Or.. Do you find males attractive? Same with girls.
They are obviously going to have that feeling inside, saying to themselves, what sexuality is my son/daughter.
Inside, I know my parents don't care about my sexuality, they just want the best for me.
I confronted my granny first, and she told me what to do.
Now, You don't HAVE to confront your parents about your sexuality, only if you feel comfortable about it. I feel alot more comfortable now that I have told them.
Here is my parents response to me sitting down with them and saying, Mum.. dad, I need to tell you both something, well.. I have been having urges for males and I think I may be gay.
Mum: That's perfectly fine Colin, because it could be a phase, most boys go through this.
Colin: Then if it's a phase i've had it for a few years.
Dad: Don't worry, we only want whats best for you.
I won't tell you the rest, too disturbing, LOL.
But it's that easy to confront your parents, I don't know all of your parents and how you feel about them.
But this topic is for those who feel they want to or wish to confront their parents about their sexuality. Also, please post if you already have confronted parents about your sexuality, and what did they respond with?
Thanks.
