    Its really difficult to say. If you are uncomfortable with your mom knowing then you should probably come out to someone that is more supportive first like you dad or one of your siblings. You will be able to express what you really feel and let some people know and hopefully they will back you up when you do decide to tell you mom or other people.

    There's no perfect time to come out. As long as you're not rushing anything.

    I would come out to my father and siblings since they had a "that's ok" kind of reaction in response to that TV scene. If you talk with them about your fear of coming out to your mom, maybe they could seriously help you finding the best way to tell her. Plus, they might be really supportive and influent on your mom reaction.

    Good luck.

    I think you should come out to someone that you know will support you...then you can talk to that person about coming out to you mom and will help...

    That kind of happened with my 2 best friends...one was toootally ok the other one..not really and I did that :wink:

    I think I'll have to do the same with my familly...the problem is that I don't know how supportives will be my sisters..and my mom (my dad is homophobic..)
