    so I'm from Australia but I moved to Canada in 2010. until I came out to myself I was roman catholic which meant I was raised hating lgbt. and I did. I draw nasty symbols and slogans on gsa posters and I only realized how awful this was when I found out that one of my closest friends was bi. after that I re evaluated my was of life and turned out to be bi myself. but I knew I wasn't by myself (see what I did there? I know I'm a riot) I had heard of gay support groups so I googled it up and I found this awesome place.

    by this point I have come out to about four or five of my friends but only one of my family. I really want to tell my parents but I'm scared their catholic morals are higher than my brothers.
    its a totally ddifferent thing to come out to your parents. you know what I mean.


    well in the meantime, peace out

    Hello and welcome to EC.

    Don't judge too quickly... I come from a catholic childhood, and some of the most deeply religious folks I've met were ok when I came out to them.

    If they loved you before, the love will stay afterwards. Amor vincit omnia, kid.

    Enjoy.
