    Does anyone else feel this way? As in, you've accepted your sexuality, and now you don't really care who knows about it. I want to shout it from the rooftops! Whatever reactions may come my way, whether negative or positive, I feel like I'm strong enough to handle it. I'm not hiding anymore! No more closets.

    I don't care who knows, but I don't particularly want to shout it from the rooftops. My sexuality doesn't define me, and so I won't act as though it does.

    All the best.

    Yeah, I guess I do feel that way now (after a long long time giving a huge fuck). I definitely will tell anybody that asks me, but if they don't then they don't need to know.

    Haha I'm getting to that point too now. *gets on rooftop* It's not WHO I am its just a small piece of me. I don't care who really knows either. (Well just not my mom's side cuz they'd be preachy about it and I don't wanna deal with it :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:)

    After so long giving a fuck about what people thought and feeling, not so much ashamed just disconnected from everyone else, I just got over it.
    Now if people ask it's not even 'that' big of a deal it's like, "yeah, I'm Gay..want a cookie?" :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
    I realised there's SO much more to people than their sexuality.

    Same here. I used to be afraid, especially since I am a christian, but I overcame that because I realized that one I can't change it, and two who cares. So yeah IDGAF. Hell yeah for pride. Gay Pride that is.

    You're at that point. That's great, woman...

    Very empowering.

    Right? It's funny how you can go from being internally homophobic to wanting everyone to know that you love women.
    I'm just happy.
    Nothing else matters :slight_smile:

    Don't worry, it's something that comes with time and being accepting of yourself. It took me a long time to get to this point, but it is so worth it.

    I KNOW!!!
    When I came out to my sister (first person) I felt very uneasy... Like adjknfajhdebfa!!
    Then my dad... Geezus... I was feeling so flustered. I almost crapped my pants.
    But then... It's like "I'm gay and it's effing awesome"... and we start to actually take pride on it. It just becomes part of your identity. It's not just who you fall in love with/sleep with... It's you... and it's fucking great!!

    lol There's a point where I'd wish it'd be very obvious on me... It's kind of annoying having guys hitting on me. I'm flattered, but when I say "I'm lesbian" I mean "I like women" and not "I'm playing hard to get, so, please, keep on insisting"/"I'll change my sexual orientation just for you because OMG you're so cool"...

    lol
    Check out this song... Very catchy. XD
    I became obsessed with it.
    (!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!)(!) I'll dance to it anytime... lol

    I live in Montana, so the answer to that question is no. Sometimes it's not safe to be out.

    Give it tiime...
    The early stages of coming out are highly ackward... personally I felt very uneasy when coming out to my very first few... Saying the word, saying "I'm gay" was alsdhfkansdk... and it came out like me puking the word "gay"... lol Like you wanna say it fast or otherwise it won't come out... but then the "Hell, yeah!! I'm gay" feeling comes along.

    Honestly it's just so effing empowering. I was amazed by that.
    I don't do drugs so I really can't tell, but I'm pretty sure this is what people who do cocaine or meth or whatever must feel like.

    Haha, I would love that feeling.
    I'm the same way about being transgender, only I don't really know what my sexuality is so I can't really be like 'lol bro, I'm bi/gay/straight and idgaf if you like it or not' yet. One day I'll figure it out.




    ...eventually...

    I had that amazing feeling for a while, and still kinda do. But in all honesty, I'm really sick of being told I'm not gay, or being told that I'm Bi, and not gay. Here are the facts:
    -I love boys
    -I have absolutely no desire to be with a girl
    -I like penis
    -I find vagina detestable
    -The person of my dreams is a man

    That sounds pretty gay to me...

    (By the way, happy end of the world everyone ;p)

    I know what that felt like, the way I announced to the world was putting a in a relationship status on FB with no one (everyone knows that's like saying your gay), most people knew but now almost everybody does. Some people don't talk to me anymore but I don't care at all. And it feels great. I wish everyone would experience that!

    I realized that being gay was truly ok when I went to Lady Gaga's concert in Sao Paulo and I met such wonderful people who were ok with themselves, that's when I felt the need to tell everyone else even those who weren't close friends.
