    I'm lesbian, but I don't know how to tell my family when the time comes. They're literally ALL homophobic! They've told me their views because once I had to interview them on their opinion on homosexual rights and they all strongly disapprove of homosexuals! What should I do?? I feel hopeless.. :dry: :help:

    I don't think there is anything you can do at this state, but try to show them the innocence + normality of homosexuality. Ease them into the idea and just wait till you're old enough to fend for yourself to come out.
    That's all I got. Sorry.

    That must be hard, yes just ease them into it and wait until you're on your own. Maybe once they know you are a lesbian they will rethink their views (unlikely but you never know).
