So last night I kipped at my best friends house. This morning, breakfast time, her younger brothers 3 and 5 are babbling on about nothing. The oldest was saying the youngest had a little girlfriend. To which he replied (in his own language...we call it Jude-ish{guess what his name is}) "Yeah and Leon (older brother {5}) is my b-b-est friend" I laughed and said "I thought he was going to say boyfriend there...you'd have fun with that one" The whole family laughed Then Leon said. "I think having girlfriends is silly, boyfriends are better" We all laughed and I said "I like that boy's logic"...more laughter. Later on we're watching a simpsons DVD and it seems pretty gay orientated... I don't know why but EVERY episode definately had homosexual undertones. I mentioned it and my friend said "That's probably why Leon likes it." I asked what she meant and her she said Leon is definitely going to be a little gay boy she even said "Leon's going to be a little gay boy isn't he Dad." He laughed and said "Yeaaah you can tell." Then he sat on my knee, watching TV...leon not his dad :') He kept hugging me and trying to hold my hand and kissing my cheek. We kept laughing calling him a little puffta. :') It was so lovely. The family just said it in a way that made me feel so normal. If he ever was gay he definitely wouldn't have ANY trouble coming out to his family. He's not even a camp kid. He's really aggresive and is just an average kid. But it wouldn't surprised me if he was a little homo. hahaha It was a nice day today.
its great sounds like a cool kid wish i had been that at peace with myself at his age. its great you know a family tahts so accepting we should all be so lucky be happy
That's awesome. I love hearing stories like that . It's reassuring. My family is amazing and I know they will love and accept me when I tell them. There are definitely gonna be some bumps in the road though..
that is such a comfort to hear stories like this, I wish my family was as accepting over lifestyle choices, I don't have to come out over being gay but there is a lot of friction between my family over my choice of religion, following Wicca rather the Catholicism.
Aww... that's a great family. I'm glad to see an example of how things should be everywhere. That kind of acceptance is incredibly rare. It's kind of funny they were so lighthearted about it. X3
Awwww that's really sweeeeet!! Don't worry, even though they aren't accepting, as your best friend I am, and one day you'll be free from all that and free to do whatever you like. Keep your head up, you've managed this far. (*hug*)
