    Scince I've recently came out to my mom I want to come out to my dad. I'm visiting him this weekend. Im sort of nervous about telling him because he used to be mentally abusive, although we are on much better terms now. He has mentioned several times that he is supportive of LGBT rights and gay marriage. Any advice?

    If he's mentioned several times to you that he supports LGBT rights and marriage, he might already think that you could be gay and could be giving you an invitation to come out with open arms. I'd definitely tell him if you feel like it's the right thing to do, I personally think it'll go well, although I don't know how and in what way he was emotionally abusive, I just hope things are much better, as you stated. ^.^ Best of luck and keep us up to date! :3
