I have been sure of my sexual preferences since the past 3 years now. The phase of confusion is long gone. I am 21 years old. But my parents still don't know this. They don't know that I like girls (being a girl) and I don't know when the right time to come out is.

I am glad you are sure of yourself but I understand the societal challenges. I hope you find the right time! 

You need to be strong and do this. All the best xx

Relationships

One day late but HAPPY PRIDE MONTH🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🫂🫂🫂

LGBTQ

So I came out as a bisexual in September, 2020. Not to the world, just a bunch of friends. They are all pretty supportive and have been amazing. Except a few, they're kinda homophobic but I don't think they realise it. But it's fine, the journey so far has been good. There are ups and downs but that's okay. 
Recently, I realised that I was genderfluid. People have been accepting when it came to my sexuality but I don't know how they're gonna respond/react if I tell them about my gender orientation. I have no expectations but I am so scared to even tell my closest of friends about it. Worst of all, I hate having to hide myself or being in a closet. It feels like suppressing a part of me. 

Umm. So let's do it. Here I'm. I'm gay. So i have to pretend in front of everyone that like I'm super straight or I don't have anyone in my life. And i hate lies. Whenever my mom and dad start talking about my marriage i get a lil bit upset kind of. Because i don't know what will happen when they will know. So i just wanna know what you guys will say

Mental Wellbeing

I'm a guy and I love to wear pink as it's my favourite colour but some of my female friends are always commenting on me indirectly "are you a gay'' "please say if you are I don't have a gay friend, you will be first".... I'm straight and still they try to pull me down... 

Society

Sexuality and Society have been opposing forces, that is what my mother told me when I came out to her. It has been a week, since I told her I am gay. She didn't understand it at first. I think she has taken so many days to process it. Like, I have to face so much more than you??? So don't be so dramatic??? The reason I told her was because I wanted to do a photoshoot about queerness with a friend of mine. So he has this idea that he would make these sensual portraits and print them and display them in the most mundane settings and click a picture of that. The idea is to show that sexuality and society coexist, it is not a big deal. And because this photoshoot would be public, I wanted to make sure my mother knew, so she doesn't get shocked when my sneaky relatives find it. My mother is an English professor, so I figured she could be anything byt a bigot. Boy, was I wrong. She was so mean to me. She completely laughed at the idea of the photoshoot. At one point she even said I was too ugly for a boy to be attracted to me. She said ""sexuality and society both are filled with shame"" she isn't wrong but is she right? Not really.....I deserve a better mother. A friend of mine says it is great that my mother doesn't want to kil me. It is small things to be grateful for? ANyway, I am going to get the photoshoot. F*ck her and the society or whatever.

I am gay

Coming Out

I feel like ranting here about some of my feelings, im an 18 year old lesbian tired of homophobia . Im tired of having to explain myself and educate people on why i didnt choose to be a leabian, im tired of it all, my whole life ive lived with people telling me how being gay is bad and a "sin", when i found out i was gay i cryed because i didnt want to be gay, actually, i didnt want to be bullied and disowned for being gay. why is it that us gay people have to go through this just because of our sexuality? We get beaten and killed just for being who we are, friends who we thought we could trust betray or leave us. im so tired so having to deal with homophobic bullshit, i just want to be able to love without being called a sin or get hate crimed. I want to live in a world where gay people aren’t being sexualized or used as the "gay best friend". Am i asking for to much when i say i just want to be accepted and treated equally . You see all these successful gay people online and forget about the fact that most of the world hates gay people. We aren’t your gay bestie, we are human and want to be treated as one. 

Phobia

Firstly i didn't mean to hurt anyone, but if i did i apologize. 
For me now in my academic circle it's hard to be straight one. I'm alright and i do have homosexual friends but it's not for me. Personally i can't see myself there. But all this pride month i been just forced to acknowledge them not by homo ones but by purely hetero ones. 
It's hard for me as a believer, but i'm not against it. But being forced to upheld this is painful for me. For that i became unconventional not modern and all. 
I'm very huggy person and love to give hugs to my friends i barely notice other sexes.
My friends say i'm a homo if i hug them and i feel very bad can't enjoy carefree friends ship now .... It's all making me feel so sad and confused
