    I came out to my younger brother today. I was too nervous to do it in person so I private messaged him a "hi I'm a lesbian" name sticker image. He responded with a gif of David Bowie dancing on stage. Instant acceptance

    Nice! I'm glad he was welcoming; it's always a nice feeling to have family in your corner. My younger brother was also the first family member who knew about me being gay, and he's been real good about it and keeping it between us.
