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.
