Not exactly Coming out stories but just maybe funny stories if you were talking with someone about being gay, bi, trans, pan, whatever... My favorites that I've had are: Me: I would totally go straight for Luke Bryan My Friend: No you wouldn't, you're gay. End of story. and... My BFF and I were talking about how I was in love with one of my friends but we weren't friends anymore and I was sad but getting over it Me: Yeah... That's why I was so bent outta shape by it. But I'm moving on, a little guarded but getting better Her: Good! Now go grab your journal and make it pretty as a fucking rainbow!!! *She randomly decided to mention our Wreck This Journals* Me: Yes ma'am! Rainbow journal! :newcolor::thewave:ride:
*gives box of crayons* I've been colouring my notebook rainbow on the inside cover It's nice being out to a few friends who accept it, so you can make jokes about it! One time my friend expressed her worries to me over her liking a guy I had a crush on- which was back in middle school, where I refused to accept that I didn't actually like guys. Sometimes to make your friends laugh, you have to act way OOC! "Girl, I'm gayer than a rainbow, you can marry the guy and I'll be the first to toss flowers!"
Me, My best friend, and her bf were standing in their apartment. Her bf is acting weird. Her: Brandon what's wrong? Aren't you going to change you're shirt? Him: Well I was trying to be polite, there is a lesbian in the room. Me: I don't care! Him: Well I didn't know! You don't like men...
Me walking down the streets with one of my best friends: Him:You are such a lesbian. Another day when we were dancing and he was teaching me to do something and he was like Him: You are such an ative lesbian.
On an app Guy: Oh! You're a trans* guy? That's cool! So what made you decide to be a woman? Me: Um... That's the thing. I don't. I was assigned a woman at birth. But I identify as a man so I'm a trans* guy. Guy: Oh... (Long conversation ensues in which I patiently explain the difference between trans* men and women, what it means to be a transsexual, the difference between gender identity and sexual orientation, etc) Me: So, any questions? Guy: Yeah. Why don't you want to be a woman? Me:
I would totally go gay for Luke Bryan. Oh wait _________________________________________________ I was talking to my uncle, who knows I'm gay, and he mentioned that he wanted to start working out. Uncle: I need to find a gym nearby, but the only thing that's nearby is the YMCA. And you know what they say about.... (gets flustered) well anyways, maybe I'll go jogging around the park. Me: Yeah, that's cool. (wants to laugh) The funny thing is, if he didn't know I was gay, he would have said something along the lines of "and you know all the *fags* that hang around the YMCA, I don't want anyone looking at me." But because he sometimes forgets I'm gay, he sometimes has to watch what he says because he doesn't want to offend me. He's a really great person, but before he knew I was gay, he would make homophobic comments willy-nilly. It's funny when he tries to correct himself mid-sentence.
Me: So do you honestly NOT care that I'm gay?? My best friend (first person I came out to): Well of course, bro! It's just awkward now going to a restaurant called Five Guys (Hamburgers) hahahaha.
This was while me and my friends GF was watching Glee together: Me: I would so turn Santana. Her:...Into what? A man?! I'd not been out to her for long and that joke reassured me that she was cool with it. It was bloody hilarious how quick she came out with it as well.
I had just come out the the man that was like a father to me growing up, a big "tell" for me, he is super supportive and could careless. After this we go to a ranch where they are branding and castrating the calves, this is Montana on a Saturday. They save the castrated calve balls and fry them up. He is trying to tell me how they taste and their texture and what not, I said to him ".....Jim, your telling a gay man what balls taste like...." he busts up laughing, tears in his eyes laughing. This made me feel comfortable and accepted, a huge moment in all this coming out thing.
I have a pretty great story about people "mistaking" me for a guy. This is kinda funny. It's like a legend where I used to work. I was running the drive thru one day, and I waited on a guy who turned out to be my boss's dad. The next day, my boss pulled me over and said, "You know, my dad asked me last night, 'Is that little boy in the drive thru gay? He had both of his ears pierced.'" Oh, God, I laughed so hard. I was known there from that day on as the twelve-year-old gay boy. I don't know why my boss decided on twelve, but that's what they always called me. He's gay, and he's the best, most fun boss I've ever had. *sigh*.... I miss him.
KARISSA: "OMFG!!! YOU'RE GAY AND YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND!?!?!" ME: "Yep. He lives in (town) and his name is Brendan." KARISSA: "BUT I THOUGHT YOU LIKED ME! WHY DO YOU THINK I WAS HITTING ON YOU SO MUCH!?!?!?" ME: "Well, we could have a fling, I mean, if I cheated on him with a guy, he'd probably slit my throat. If I cheated on him with a girl, he'd just be like 'Where'd you get the Viagra?'"
My friend, my teacher, and I were discussing the enrollment for next year. My friend: So we only have two boys? I hope we get more. We can't have just two. My teacher (who loves teasing people): What, do you want a better selection to choose from? He then turned to me and said: Well, you're hoping for more girls then, aren't you? It was great because it was the first time he teased me about being gay since I came out to him.
