    Just thought this would be interesting to see because honestly people are strange sometimes. Here's one of the kinda funny reactions I got from my raging homophobic 'family' (or at least my mom claims this guy is family)



    My mom is dating a guy who is a total jackass and he loves to rag me about getting a boyfriend. The other day my brother and I were watching Wynonna Earp and a certain scene came up and my brother said something along the lines of

    "Yep, called it the lesbians are screwing in the barn!"

    I automatically started laughing and Step-ass calls out

    "Did you just say (my name) ####ed her boyfriend in a barn?"


    Without missing a beat my older brother retorted

    "If she did it wouldn't be a boyfriend! She'd be like these two girls on TV!"

    I have never seen a 60 some year old guy almost inhale a can of beer before but step-ass was so shocked by this info that he spilled it everywhere and I thought that one of us were going to have to call 911.

    He then croaked out

    "What? You're a gay? I didn't know you were a gay! I'm mad at you for choosing to like women that way!"

    My mom, during all of this, was trying to disappear into the floor because she doesn't approve but she learned a long time ago not to even try to change me.

    "Yeah, well I don't care. I like girls whoop de do."

    my brother starts laughing, my mom excused herself to the bathroom and I think her boyfriend went into shock because he got really quiet.

    I bumped into my friend who worked at a store I was shopping at. She was training a new girl, so we start chatting and my coworker introduces me to her trainee as her "gay friend." Completely dumbstruck, the girl looks at me and says "Ummm.. are you like the girl or the boy?" "We're both boys, that's kind of the point."

    ....For some people I guess meeting a live gay is like meeting Santa Claus. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    My one friends disbelief that I could be gay because "you listen to heavier music than I do and you are so masculine" lol

    My response was something along the lines of "I listen to a lot of different music some of it is really gay"

    I didn't say this part but I wish I did "its not that I'm so masculine you are just really feminine" that would have made him really mad I think.

    Brother: "You like girls?!?!?!???"

    Me: "I literally said I that I thought (I forgot exactly who it was but it was a fictional lady character) was hot and that I wanted to date her if she was real yesterday"

    I came out last year to my friend who had and still has a huge crush on me. XD

    Here's the conversation:

    Me: I have something to tell you... I am gay.

    Her: Wait, so you like boys???

    Me: Yes.

    Her: Are you sure?

    Me: Are you sure that you are straight?

    Her: Yes.

    Me: Well same thing for me, I am sure that I am gay.

    Her: Are you sure that you want to stay that way though?

    Me: Of course. I was born this way, I can't change anything...

    She was so persistent about questioning the truth.

    best friend: if your not out to your parents why did you do it here at your house

    best friend: so.....how attractive am I? scale of one to ten, you can tell since you know......right?
    me: seriously?
    Best friend: okay fine haha.




    he actually wont say the word "gay" around me, he thinks that could be offensive so refers to it as (say it in a posh upper class british accent....not he doesn't have that but it sounds like he does when he says it) "homosexual" and "homosexual relationships" * sips tea * haha.

    There are a lot of responses here that are close to yours, but this one ^^^ is the winner for me so far. I'm seriously thinking of stealing it. I wish I had thought of it to use on my boss before I retired...she was one of the best supervisors I ever had.

    Love the one about the cats. ;-) I have come out to very few people, most of which have been supportive, so I have no funny stories. But I enjoyed reading everyone else's! Thanks for sharing. :slight_smile:
