Emma W Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Hey I'm Emma My mum is also religious and thinks that LGBTQ+ is a phase. I've half come out and told her that I don't think I'm straight but I think I'm bi. If you're ready but only if you're ready, maybe try explaining to them what LGBTQ+ is and what it means to be bisexual. If they seem supportive and ok, slowly, over time, take things a bit furthur and talk more untill you feel ready. Remember, things like this take time and keep telling them how god made everyone unique, special, and everyone should be loved for who thy are not who they love. Hope this helped! x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vega Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 This is so sad to hear! All my dad dose is quote Robin Williams on the topic. But a kid in my class said the same thing your dad said. I don't understand this all! LOVE IS LOVE AND YOU ARE WHO YOU ARE WHO YOU ARE! IT IS YOUR CHOICE (or is a choice, no, it's more of a sub conscience thing for me) So PEOPLE NEED TO CUT THIS OUT AND ACCEPT THIS. The human race has come so far in equality, so why stop now.Β Black white, male female, gay strait and all in between, we are all people just trying to get through life 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lKail Posted June 7 Author Share Posted June 7 Ikr @vega! Like I don't understand why we all just can't get along, whether its race, religion, or sexuality we should just accept people for who they are and want to be. I don't get why we have to live up to other peoples standards just because they or our parents say so. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anonymous_girl Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 I think im bi too. i have a crush on my bi bestfriend and am so scared to tell her/ my parentsΒ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRobin Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Donβt freak out, it can be super overwhelming when you realize you werenβt as straight as you once thought. Your best friend will probably be super happy that youβre also bi. When I came out as pan to my best friend, she then came out as bi and we were probably the happiest people in that school for the next week. Parents are more open minded when it comes to their kids, so just keep in mind that they might need some time to adjust depending on how they always thought about the LGBTQIA+ community but my homophobic Christian parents came around in a week. I told them and they said okay and then sent me out of the room to talk. A week later, they pulled me aside at a party to tell me they accepted and supported me. And side note here: You arenβt required to tell anyone. You can stay closeted as long as you need to become comfortable with the labels youβve chosen for yourself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is such good advice; thank you for sharing :)Β Also, generally for people, remember, it's really important to make sure it's safe before you come out, and if there's a chance you might be put in any danger, it's best to wait until you can be as safe as possible. This might mean waiting until you have moved out, and for some people, even living in a place where it's legal. Your safety is the most important thing.Β Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
