    So I was talking with my Dadand somehow we got on to the topic of homosexuality...

    My Dad:...but you know, if you were gay I wouldn't care.
    Me: Thatsgoodcosiam
    Dad: What?
    Me: That's good...cos I am.
    Dad: Okay...cool.

    Then he asked me some questions like how long have I known and do I have a "special friend" ect.

    Then finally, this was the best part;

    Dad: Well, Charlotte. You just made my week. Actually Month. Actually year.
    Me: really? why?
    And he kind of messed up his words it bit here, but something along the lines of being proud of me for accepting myself etc. What he actually said was 'I'm proud of you for sorting it out in your head', and that's what I took it to mean lol.

    So I was just there like 'woohoo! My Dad is a legend!'
