    Who has LGBT relatives? As far as I know I'm the only one in my family.

    Quite alone myself.
    I don't know of anyone else in my whole family.

    My great uncle was supposedly gay/gender queer/transgender. I think he was just gay though and the wearing dresses thing was a exaggeration. They just decided to add that to make him seem more different.

    Other then that.. I think I'm alone but, I'm always watching....

    Same. He's never married, and I'm not even sure he's ever had a girlfriend, but he's also my godfather and quite religious, so that might not change. Then he has his elderly, sick parents to look after.

    Supposedly, he had a "friend" who would pay for his travel expenses, and they'd visit different cities together.

    My grandma's brother is gay, but he lives far away so I never get to see him.
    So, most of the time I'm the only one. I may be suspecting two of my cousins, though.

    I have a [female] cousin who has only come out to me, and a [male] cousin who has never admitted to it but I'm fairly sure is at least bisexual because... Well, it's hard to miss when you are the object of his desire.

    My aunt is a lesbian and out, which is pretty cool, because I get to meet her girlfriends and see that they're really great and they're happy together.
    Other than that, I'd be very surprised if no one on the other side of my family is LGBT, because there are a lot of them... but I have no idea who it might be.

    I'm the only one out but I really, highly suspect my cousin (who I'm very close to) is in the closet

    My elder brother ( hence my username). I also wouldn't be surprised if one of my great nephews comes out when he's a bit older. I had high hopes for two of my nieces at one point.... but alas, no.

    Let's see:

    Uncle is gay on dad's side. There are rumors that two cousins(one male, one female) on that side are bi because one is obsessed with the appearance of men but has never come out. He is the tough guy type. The other was head of her gay straight alliance in her high school. One other cousin(female) is bi and married to a man.

    Mom's side: My older cousin is a lesbian and was disowned by my aunt, and we don't see her. She is in her mid 40's and had a daughter before coming out. Her daughter(my 2nd cousin) is bi and married to a man. This cousin also claimed that my other aunt on mom's side is a lesbian. She has never been married and has had a "friend" at a lot of family get togethers when I was younger. It's also interesting that she was engaged to a man back in the 80's who had cheated on her with a man and ended up dying from AIDS. My 2nd cousin slipped up and outed my other cousin(female) as bi.

    And somehow through all this on both sides of the family with lots of LGB people, I got stuck with 2 of the 3 homophobic parents on both sides. Everyone else is cool with me being bi.

    Unfortunately I know of none in my family who fit the criteria. Then again, me and my family are not on talking terms, and I have no distant relatives, so it is irrelevant.
