Okay, I'm a friend of SolarGirl. Actually, I used to come here (Vorpal Blade), but I've been busy for a while, and have no clue what my password is.

I have no clue when International Coming Out Day is, but I came out a few months ago. I had been trying to figure out my orientation for a while, and finally realized I was gay. I've been a bit stressed lately, and thought that it might help to relieve some of that stress if I just came out. I was scared, obviously, but knew that my family really shouldn't mind. So I told my mom and stepdad (I don't know how my dad would react, so I haven't told him yet), and they were supportive, accepting, and all that. My brother was fine with it, and my sister sent me a really sweet email (I came out to her with one) saying she was abolutely fine with it. When I told SolarGirl, she gave me a hug and started singing the Avenue Q song ("If you were gay/ It'd be okay/ I would still love you anyway...") Thankfully, she only knows about one and a half verses; she can't sing. Like, at all.

So my fears were ungrounded, but I guess I'm just lucky to have such an accepting family.

Just thought I'd stop by and share so SolarGirl will stop poking me.

GAYNESS #1
Throughout my adolescence I had a very super gay guy friend. Like really super gay.

In like tenth grade we're on the phone and he says he has something to tell me. But he's scaaaared. Keeps me on the phone for like half an hour, then finally says it... he's gay. I told him off for dragging out something that was public knowledge.

GAYNESS #2
Also during high school, I dated guy on and off who was pretty damn gay. Really, it was more of a security blanket situation for both of us. He was kind of excessively adamant that he was not gay. In fact, I later found out he was telling people all these ~sexy~ times we had together, that we totally did not have. The sexy times we did have he seemed to have trouble even getting through.

It was cute when the three of us would hang out. My two gay boyfriends got along to well!

Anyway, we talked on AIM like six years later or something. He thought I hated him for dumping me, so I confessed that I had been seeing other people for several weeks before we broke up anyway. Then he told me he was gay and I said something along the lines of, "Duh, I told you that. It's half the reason I dated you; you were safe."

GAYNESS #3
When I was younger one of my mother's many cousins was getting married, which meant her cousins from up north would be visiting. I was excited to see them, but she told me that one of them wasn't allowed to talk to anyone under eighteen for a few years, by court order. She tried to avoid telling me why, but after a while I got my mother to teach me the word "sodomy." Good times.

GAYNESS #4
Another one of my mother's cousins (female) is pretty obviously gay. One day, my mother told me "Hey, [name] came out of the closet." I said "She was in the closet?" To which my mother replied "Apparently she thought she was!"

Someday I would like to see someone come out of the closet who isn't obviously already gay. Booooring.

All I can think of is how awesome it would be if they combined this with talk like a pirate day.

I watched a bunch of movies today and did some homework. It was pretty sweet.

I would love to make a prank of this but I feel it undermines the point and is a bit trout towards my excellent homosexual pals. I don't like to be a bastard even if it's in pursuit of laffs

Let me translate that for you.

bunch of movies: gay porn
some homework: I was busy fapping so I didn't get all of it done

I'm in the same boat as Shlup. Everyone I know that is gay either was out from the start, or else I had my suspicions anyway and it was a "I totally thought that might be the case!" (I'm not one to say 'I knew it' >_>;</>) scenario.

I guess it's just not a huge deal to me. Although obviously it is for them, so yay to them.
