Serious Gay/bisexual/lesbian users

Personally, I'm not sure if I'm bi, but I would prefer being straight. But I am not a homophobic at least. I have had bad experences with bi and gay kids, I almost was raped by a guy (strange story, ask if you want to know).
But yet i know really cool people who are bi or gay (I'm pushing lesbians in with gay).
 
*sighs* well, it's really good to know I'm not the only one out there. Now that I've confessed on the internet that I'm bi, I'm not sure how to break it to my folks (though I've got a feeling that my Mom is aware). I'm worried it will change their view of me, and I don't want that. I find it funny, though, that it's easy for me to defend and support my gay friends, but when it comes to me, I get pathetic and spineless. Well.......guess I'm just not ready.
 
There time for you yet Sohryuden, its just hard to picture them picturing you differently,
you may go into a room and just feel a little apprehensive about what people may or may not think. but these are not some random people, they're your Parents/parent and what your telling them is not a bad thing or a good thing its just the way you are.

I really hate the way Gay/lesbian people are persecuted by ignorant fuckers, better calm down thats not why I'm here.

The term "The Gays" just smacks of ignorance to me, and offends as a human!

I aint gay and I dont particularly care if anyone else is......its the same as racism, it just doesnt make sense to me why people would care, Gay/Lesbians in the army is another stupid argument, if they willing to defend there country then let them if they are willing to Die for there personal beliefs.

Just like Heterosexual Guys & Girls they have loved ones they want to protect!

I'm no activist it just burns me up(literally) when I think or am presented with unjustified persecution.......To the Avengers Tower!!
 
I hate the way homos (if i may use that term, no offense intended) are treated. Around where I live, if you are homo, you are followed home, jumped, and beat up extremely badly. People think I'm homo just because I say things that could be taken in different ways. Such a saying as "let's do it!" to a guy, may get you accused of being homo. Its just not right. Homos are the same as everyone else. Its like racisim and the such, but people are hopefully getting over it.

Btw, I do not mean this to be offensive in anyway. Let me know if i offended you in anyway.
 
Personally; what gets me the most about discrimination against gays and lesbians (and bisexuals) is when the religious nutcases point to the Bible and enthusiastically go "See?! God was against gays! It's an abomination!"

1: The Bible also says that shaving, eating shellfish, and any number of other things are a sin punishable by death and I don't see religious activists burning down Red Lobster.

2: If you truly believe in what the Bible says; Jesus came to Earth to forge a new covenant between God and the People: one of love, tolerance, forgiveness, and peace. The Old Testament was to be just that: Old.

3: I don't want to turn this into Bible Debate, but the Bible was written by man and for man. While some parts may have indeed been divinely inspired, who's to say some of the laws laid down after the book of Exodus weren't, well, frivolously inserted based on the opinion of the time?

In short, as a Christian and someone who's bisexual, I believe what Jesus said about tolerance and forgiveness. I don't like seeing religion used as a baseball bat. To quote a protest sign; "Lord Jesus, protect me from your followers."

You forgot a major thing, this is Jewish laws, they were erased when Jesus died for us (if you are Christan that is)
So, the Jews still believe this.

Me, because of race, I could have been Muslim, Jewish, or Christan, I chose Christan because there is no discrimination, you have free will more or less. So you can be Christan and still be bi. But Jews and Muslims don't believe that homosexuality is right.

This is why I advocate gays/les/bi's carry......... Guns. That's right, I said guns. I always carry my katana. Knife when I can't go into the building with a sword.
 
I like to carry weapons with me as well
People think I'm homo and try to jump me just for that.
 
Oh geezus frikkin christ....
Seriously...
I dont advocate violence on anyone for any reason .
But as long as Humans exsist we will find a reason to discriminatea gainst someone for whatever reason we can find weather it be race,sexuality or hair colour and warp reasons to our own mentality so thet "we" can use them against someone.
The best wy to curb this is voicing yourself. When you see someon doing something ignorant or calling someone a derogitory remark defend your stance and say something.
Ignorance is only abolished by reason and knowledge.
So talk is all fine and good but means nothing unless you take a stand and say something without fear of retaliation otherwise all the talk is meaningless.
 
BTW I like carrying weapons just for the sake of it! ITS FUN!

Those religious guys.....Argh! makes me mad.

I not a part of any religious movement at all so l no nothing of the dogmatic reasoning they use to justify there barbaric persecution of those who exist outside of there religion, this may be hyperbole, but being able to look at people without preconceptions is incredibly freeing.

This applies to extremist, not regular Ethists.

The gays will pay attention. Hopefully, they came out before you, and can provide advice about family, friends, etc.

Its like jumping into the water, you cant just go in one inch at a time, you gotta jump. You get used to the water the longer you are in it. It starts to feel better. what im trying to say is that you have the right to be afraid, but its something that has to be done. Some peoples reactions are going to be different.
Some people are not going to accept it right away but give them time and they will come around.
Its hard, but once its done you will feel soooo much better.

What about the possibility of having a sex change? That changes much... I think I'd still be... gay, after that. Maybe... I'm just like you guys. I'm not even sure what/who I am myself.

EDIT: I'll explain. I'm bisexual for the most part now. But I'm thinking very heavily on getting a sex change and then I dunno what I'll be... Most likely gay. So there's lots of junk to throw onto the pile there when it comes to telling other people in person.

Bi here!

A while back someone asked about coming out experiences?

Well, when I was 15/16 I "came out" to my friends, and their response was more or less "Whatever." Which was disappointing in a way. Obviously, I was glad my friends were okay with me, but I struggled a long time about whether or not to tell people and wanted to talk about it! Plus I had a rather horrible crush on one of those friends at the time... but in the end, no big deal.

But, about three years ago I was dating a girl who I thought was the love of my life and it became necessary to tell my parents. It was ugly. My mom was slightly disapproving, but still thought it was my decision and my life. My dad... it's a miracle we're on speaking terms now. In summary: I was insulted constantly, had bible passages screamed at me, and was basically looked at as a thing that wasn't human by my own father.

Bad times were had all around, but at least I feel like I can take most anything from anyone now.

Sorry you had to go through all that. Bisexual male here.

Never really went through any difficulty being what I am. I've always been able to tell beauty in anything and... mostly anyone.

I remember being a kid, and the boys were chasing eachother with their little wee-wees out having the time of their lives, and them running in terror of facing the other boy's penis, and I remember staring at the scene and going:

"Er... what's so wrong about that? I got one too, should I be disgusted with myself?"

Had my first contact with the same sex at age 11 when I first kissed a boy, and 12 with my first kiss with a girl.
I still feel uncomfortable with the fact that some people actually gasp at the fact that I can say I've already had sexual intercourse with both sexes. In this day and age? Seriously? Dude, go out. Look around.

As far as parents are concerned, I never really had a father so, me and my mother developed a very close bond, at some times even sibling-like, and when I felt I was absolutely sure of my sexual preference, I told her, and she was completely fine with it.

I obviously don't go around shouting I'm bisexual because I'm "proud" of it, like some alleged "lesbians" out there, who strangely started being open-minded or just upright Lesbians after the release of the "L Word" show (guess it was cool to be a Lesbian now that there's actual cool stuff to do, hang out in clubs with naked people, have extremely fascinating love life, hey even I wanna be a lesbian eh? Ignorant pricks lol). Buuuut I guess nobody here truly knows anybody else, so why not just say it.

Yeah i bet you carry that 7ft sword around for compensation Lol!
just kidding.

As for me, I'm technically straight, but everyone says i'm Bisexual because of the way i sometimes act around women. No matter what i tell them they don't believe me so i just agree wit hthem to shut them up, then go about my business.
 
I'm bi. I came out this year. I thought that I was straight till I saw adult Hinata from Naruto and thought... whoa. She's seriously hot, and my heart pounded fast and everything..

I've still haven't had the guts or the courage to come out and tell my parents that I'm Bi- sexual yet.
 
Apparently I didn't elaborate enough. I'm Eric, i'm obviously a boy, i'm into guys (i.e. gay) I'm out to most people (and most who i haven't formally tell probably know, cause it's frankly not hard figure out), except a few close friends and my family who's very conservative (although not religious, really) and the situation is complicated by the fact I'm an only child

Oh, and i have a boyfriend, i've been with him about a month and a half. but he goes to school two states away. He came home for the holidays (he lives in Tacoma, where i went to college) one day after I was to go back home..and canceled on me the night we were gonna see each other, after not getting to see each other since november.

eff em el

is that elaborate enough?
 
I'm gay. :D Obviously. And out to the people who matter, though most people can tell either way.

And I'm with an amazing guy whose helped me through all of it, so I'm really lucky. We've been together for quite a while now actually.
