Coming out
So, as a lot of you probably know, I've been coming out recently. Revealing myself as a bisexual man. Saying "Hey! I think men are fuckable just as much as a woman is." You know, the usual stuff with coming out.
I've gotten a lot of "OH MY GOD, REALLY?" reactions, which didn't surprise me, of course, but hey. Heh, the most surprising reactions was some people going "Wow, and I used to think you were just gay." o-O Did I really show off my attraction to men that much? I didn't think it was at all obvious.
But yeah, I've pretty much come out and told most of my closest friends about my bisexuality. There's only one group of people I have yet to tell, and honestly.. I don't even know if I want to tell them.
Those people are my family. My sister already knows. She's got the same thoughts and ideas about homosexuality as I do, so whoopee, telling her was an easy thing. The people I'm mostly afraid to tell are my parents. Honestly, I don't WANT to tell them, because I know that they'd be trying to preach me to "change my ways" or some shit.. especially after how they freaked at me saying that I'm not Christian. The thing is, I know I probably HAVE to tell them eventually because should I ever meet and fall in love with someone of the same sex in my future, I would not want to hide that person from my parents for the sake of me not having to tell them.
I'm probably not going to say anything right now. I mean, why should I tell them private business that will probably only make them get all pissed at me? If I ever DO happen to fall for a man sometime in my future, then I'll tell them, but until then, I'm keeping my mouth shut.
