My teenage daughter came out to my wife and I a couple weeks ago. The day after, we surprised her with a pride flag for her room to let her know that we support her and I can honestly say I have never seen my daughter so happy. Before she came out to us she seemed super depressed. This went on for a very, very long time. We'd ask her what's up, but she just wouldn't tell us what was bothering her. The burden of holding this secret had sunk her into a deep depression. When she told us and we told her we support and love her...it was like the depression had just been destroyed. She's made a complete 180. Super social, super optimistic, super happy. It's the best thing ever.

They may surprise you, or disappoint you. It may leave a lasting impression that affects all of your future relationship. That's a lot, and I think it's great you're thinking it through and preparing yourself. Coming out does free up a huge amount of emotional energy, and you really get to define who you are.

Being born in an Asian household with a dad who's a soldier, I was beyond blessed and grateful they never made me feel like I was an outcast for being gay. I never have that moment when I say to them like, "Dad, I was gay" but instead they were the one who confronted me spontaneously when I was in 5th grade when they noticed that I always choose to distance myself to them. I thought my dad will gonna hurt me. He somehow knew that I was bullied in school because people made fun of me being gay and knowing that he's a soldier stresses me so much, making me feel suicidal. But He told me that no matter what will happen I'll always be their child as my mom sits beside him with a smile on her face. I was surprised and overwhelmed with the atmosphere they have created and I was there crying and couldn't say a single word. I saw how my dad looked at me like I was the most precious thing in the world and hugged me afterwards. If ever I'll be born again, I'll always choose them as my family despite all the circumstances. I never had that coming-out story but I'm proud of all of them and I wish them all the best things in life. Also to all those people who's still not ready to come out, take your time and I believe that you can do it. Always remember we all deserve to be accepted and loved unconditionally.

[@overlov8460]

[@cuongpham6218]

Awww, as an Asian born to a father whose extended family is fairly conservative, I can relate so much to you. I thought as conservative as his family is (and he also holds some traditional values as well), he would never have been acceptable for who I am. But boy was I so wrong, he took the news much better than my mom, and needless to say I was shocked, happily shocked it is. I'm forever thankful that my parents have accepted me and let me be myself, even sponsored me to study abroad and have a better life in another country they think safe for LGBT people. And bless your family too, much love from Germany.

I do think it can be easier for people to use the correct pronouns if they have someone in front of them that visibly identifies with one gender (this girl worn a lot of make up and had generally a female appearance) while people get more confused when someone identifies as she/her and has a rather male appearance (e. G. Beard etc).

I also came out to my mom “in her coffin” so to speak. She died when I was 24 and we’d had one moment 4-5 years earlier where we were talking about LGBT things and she said something along the lines of “I think that if you were something you would have told me by now” and it froze me. I don’t remember my exact reaction but I brushed it off and it never came up again. So, a day or two after she died, I wrote her a letter and mentioned in it that I wasn’t straight and it wasn’t that I didn’t feel comfortable telling her exactly, just that I’d never really found the right words. And then the letter went in an envelope and the funeral director had it cremated with her.

[@demosteneswiggin5122]

When I was 22 I get mad at my dad for always saying things like "if one of my sons is gay I will kick him out of the house" (we are 12, 7 girls and 5 boys)... One day I was so tired of this that I came out as Bi and tell him if he doesn't love me anymore then is his problem, because I'm the same girl he knows, being Bi or gay or whatever doesn't change who you are. He was silent, he spent hours without talking to me. Then, he came to my room and hug me. I wasn't expecting that. Honestly, I was thinking of leaving the house the same night but fortunately he understood what I was trying to say. Now he has a more open mind. I'm glad I came out to him because my biggest fear at that time was if one of my siblings turns to be gay, bi, pan or whatever, what kind of relationship they'll gonna have with him?

Help me out with something here; So when my sister came out as bisexual, my mom was perfectly fine with it, because a few of our cousins are gay, and her older sister (my late aunt) was a lesbian. She has no problem with people being gay in real life, but for some reason whenever she sees something like the 2 moms in Good Luck Charlie, or the 2 dads in The Loud House (who never even kiss on-screen), she hates it, and says that stuff shouldn’t be in kid’s shows because it’ll “turn them gay” (and don’t even get me *started* on Steven Universe!) I told her that was complete bullshit, and as long as they’re in a stable relationship & not making out on-screen (which I wouldn’t want kids to see even if it was a straight couple), then it should be fine. When she continued to argue, I brought up my aunt, and my cousin who was raised by 2 moms & turned out completely straight, and told her that they probably would’ve wanted shows like that back when they were kids, because it would’ve made them feel represented & included, and my cousin wouldn’t have felt so ostracized by her peers because her family was different. For some reason, my mom *still* doesn’t agree with me, and *still* thinks gay relationships shouldn’t be shown in kid’s shows at all. I honestly don’t know how to get through to her, and it feels kinda ridiculous to me because you would *think* she’d be more accepting of it because of the lgbtq+ people in her life, but sadly that’s not the case. 😔

[@gemma8096]

Homosexuals are flooded with heterosexual norms from such a young age, yet they grow up knowing that they are 'different' even if they don't know what 'gay' means. Our sexuality is completely determined by the hormonal processes we undergo while in vitro. Our sexualities are determined before we are even born!! I have some notes on the science behind it if you'd like me to share it with you. Please remind your mom that majority of couples in movies are straight, yet this doesn't prevent homosexuals from becoming homosexual... So why should a gay couple here and there make straight people become homosexual?

If watching straight people in shows made people straight we'd never have homosexuals 😒 We had lgtbq+ people way before they were on TV.
