I guess I'm already lucky in a way though, I don't have to bother explaining it to my dad, since he already decided he didn't want to know me bout 10 years ago! :cheers: And my mum I know would support me fully, as she's been through it with her brother (my uncle) who is gay, and she was very supportive of him. My two brothers would take some time to convince...
My friends however are another story, most of them are, I'm afraid to say, homophobic. Most of the time it's a non-issue, but the occasional comment here and there turns my stomach inside out, and if I ever settled on a non-straight sexuality and came out, I know they would probably phase me out of the group... It's not even worth thinking about. They are the best friends I could ever hope for in every other way, and are the reason I survived my teenage years and came out the other end with shit loads of great stories to tell... But it's just this one, teeny, tiny thing that could rip it apart

Woe is me.
