Just coming out

I'm 18 and a guy I have been holding back who I really am for about 8 years... When I started to care about who I really was... So just came out to my good friend today and she supports me in every way, one of the quotes she made herself, I will always remember "I really admire you for this. Yeah, it's just 2 words. But sometimes two words take the most strength. I hate society too, it's fucked up. I may not be bi or gay, but I accept them as people. People are people. And I think everyone needs to be treated fairly. That's why I don't pick and choose my friends of discriminate about things like that." Why must society be so fucked up... I mean look at what my friend has told me and then just watch what the comments will say... We all need people like her and she's only 16... I will admin i was like the rest of society before I came out to her because i just wanted to be like the rest of society i wanted to be 'normal' i wanted to be what society wants me to be but there is no normal in life... Were all different so that means no-one is normal gay, bisexual or transgender...who ever it may be who be they're not monsters. We are just like you but with a little twist to spice things up. And yes I'm still yet to come out to my parents and other friends but this is a hard tie for me or others like me... Its not easy doing this.. It takes lot of strength and courage all I'm asking is do YOU think society is being 'normal' for bullying people like me into suicide just because they don't like the same things as society does... Just because we're a little different... I speak on behalf of society... Get your act together.. Your not perfect either.

    Look, i'm a straight middle aged woman, and i have no agenda to 'favor' you. YOU ARE PERFECTLY FINE. EVERY human era has loads of superstitious bullshit. DO NOT let yourself succumb to stupid people. Male/male love is so beautiful. It's not war, its not sick competetiveness, its a lovely, lovely thing. You're blessed. anyone who feels otherwise is just not worth your attention. Don't ever forget that. YOu're lovely, go, be good, find a sweet lover, or two, or however many you need <3 xxoo

    Why do you want to come out to your parents? Do you want to have sex with your father?

          It will be fine, just tie him to a car, and drive it off a cliff.

      I come out to my parents because I love and care for them it is not because I have sexual feeling for my parents. Yes, I don't need to come out to my parents... Because why should anyone care who I prefer to be with in bed? But I did it because i care and I just want them to know... That is why.

    fuck them, hah, my life motto. Just don't give a shit about the people that say it's wrong, you're completely in control of your life, don't let society decide what is normal.

    I admire you too, she is right. It takes a lot to be who you truly are.
