Have you come out of the closet to find love and support? Or are those close to you having a difficult time accepting your lifestyle?

Come out to the moral purpose of life: HAPPINESS

Quote From: sapfo68

When I read about your mothers reaction I thought of my friend who came out as a lesbian about 17 years ago. She started to talk about gay people to her mother to start the conversation and her mother gave very harsh comment about that beeing "unnatural" and discusting so my friend didn't have the courage to tell her about her feelings until 5 years later. Her sexuality is approved by all her family today as well as her wife. Don't get discouraged by your mothers reaction. She's probably just feeling afraid by something she doesn't know.

 

The moral purpose of one's life is HAPPINESS. Being dishonest with yourself means eternal self-damnation. It would be the noblest thing for you to come out by getting off-the-cuff with your family, particularly with your Mom. Don't beat around the bush. In a composed you, communicate the baggage you have been carrying. You want that albatross off around your neck. Anticipate a hell-break-lose scenario, and just be open with your feelings about the coming-out; talk about the insights or the discoveries that you have in the process, and tell her/them your course of action. Whether you will be accepted or not , a matter of opening up will be a great self-productive achievement. But you will have to prepare for consequences as getting your chest off is a CHOICE and RESPONSIBILITIES have to be borne. Fortify yourself mentally, emotionally, economically and educationally for eventual independence. Then, move on to a new life with dignity. Be a respectable homosexual, and all the reasons surrounding your freedom will serve as your absolute. Time will heal, and when that comes, they will recognize you as a human, not as a homosexual. >>>by LABELLESSWORLD

Homosexuality

Quote From: purplerocks131

i learned not to long ago of my bisexuality. ive always known it i guess, just never chose to pay attention to it. well, my friends know, most of them, but my parents dont. the reason why is because my mother sais not too long ago that if any of her children were,"Like that," she would kick them out. She really does not like homosexual or bisexual people. Or black people. I cant have any black friends in the house. Anyway, I was wondering of you thought i should take the chance anyway and tell her.

 

Thanks for all you help,

Your Mom needs a doctor. She obviously has internal issues of racism and a closed mind. In our culture(Canadian Indian) we revere the homosexuals. They are the people with the ability to  use two parts of their brain. They have the abiloity to think like a man or a woman therefore they are useful in so many ways. The issue of not being accepted has to stop for homosexuals. When the time comes and it will I'll be the first person to step up and ask the gay person for their divine ability. We call these people Winktas. They were the ones that looked after the orphans, the elderly and the dissingents. I will pray that your use will unfold and that you can find peace with your mother. I will pray for her to.

baby

I want to have a baby so bad!!!!  Right now is not the time financially but sometime in the near future I want to have a child with my partner.  What in the world do we say to her parents who do not know for sure we're together.  I have tried to get her to tell them but shes scared that her mothers reaction will be brutal.  Any advice??? 

 

I know her mother knows that she is a lesbian but we haven't offically told her about us.  I think her mom assumes that we are together but don't know for sure.  I just don't know how to handle this.  I don't want things to be bad when the time does come, so to me, the sooner we tell them the better?

THATS A TRICKY QUESTION

Quote From: poolboy

Got A Question. My partner and I raised two children. 11 years old and 9 years old. They are my partner's biological children. Kids are kids and will continue to enjoy childhood like everyone else except for to have homosexual parents. MY QUESTION IS: 

  

When our children want a sleep over, should we as parents discuss with the child's parent who will be staying the night that we are homosexual?  

  

Should we let the kids tell the other kids and allow the information to flow that way as we have been? 

  

We had a situation last night where the parent picked up the girl and my partner said I gave too much away that we were homosexual. Should I have to hide that because our kids are so open about that whole thing or just be true to myself. Allow that parent to now pass a judgement whether her child will be allowed back into our home knowing what she knows now. 

  

WOULD YOU BE UNFRONT FIRST OR ALLOW THEM TO FIGURE IT OUT ON THEIR OWN? 

  

Thanks

Well i would get to know the childrens parents really well before i let my child stay over there, but i don't think i would trust my child staying over at some queers house or lesbians house.  you just don't know how the parents would act towards your child i would be afriad that they might do something to my child. i would let my childs friends come over to my house to spend the night. maybe you should do that it would be safer and you wouldn't have to worry, they would be were you could keep and eye on the instead of worry what they might get into over at their friends house.

well i would be honest to the childrens parents, and if they can't except it then oh well thats their problem, you were nice enough to open your home to their children. Some people are just ignert to somethings, atleast your welling to be honest. and i would talk to my child about it and if his/her feels the need to tell his/her friends then ok. i don't see where it would hurt.

Hmmm... Well I'm in a pickle   I'm married with 2 children. I'm not in love with my husband.   We married because it was the right thing to do at the time.. being pregnant and all....If I had it my way I'd come out of the closet and be me.  Lesbian.    My kids are teenagers and I'm afraid if my hubby and I split being the age that they are it would be too hard on them.  And I have a wonderful home and....... it would hurt him so much.... bah hum bug....  I feel like life is so short and to not be myself... well preety sad....and then there's the whole "its wrong in the eyes of god......'  Hurting.......

my opinion

I am a Christian and I believe in God with everything I have. So obviously I believe that same sex relationships are a sin. Now that doesnt mean I turn away homosexuals. I have many friends that are homosexual and I love them dearly. It is not in my faith though therefore I dont encourage it or believe in it. God says that if a man lies with another man the same way he lies with a woman then he has committed the ultimate sin. Of course it doesnt say it just like that but I dont have my Bible right beside me so I cant quote it word for word, sorry. But my point is this, please dont blame your sexual orientation on "you were born that way". Homosexuality is a sin and we were made in by God so He would never make anyone that goes against His Word. If you are going to be gay then go right ahead. Just dont say that you were born that way so you cant help it. Of course you can help it, own up to your decision.

Homosexuality

I do not believe that homosexuality is a sin. At all.

I have gay friends, and they are no different from straights. They are looking for the same thing straights are, and that is to fall in love, or have sex as much as  possible, and they look for it in the same sex instead of the opposite.

Aside from that, I've seen horrible acts of violence carried out against gay people by others who claim to be people of God. Murder (Laramie Project was based on real events), bigotry, (my friend was kicked out of his house because a gay friend of his picked him up to go to the mall), hatred, ( a gay friend of mine was excommunicated when he asked his pastor for help).

The worst I've heard of was the "Westboro Baptist Church." The real Baptist Church has nothing to do with these people, and I don't blame them either.

The Wesboro Baptist Church runs webistes such as "God Hates Fags.com" and they actually picketed at Heath Ledger's funeral because he was in Brokeback Mountain, saying that he is "serving his eternal punishment in hell."

I'm not Christian, but I don't beleive for one moment that the Christian God would support that kind of hatred.
