Lori's most revealing video ever!

[LeaVeliz]

I am rewatching this video over and over again. This is so spot on.

[ashlyn57]

I come out to friends I trust not the one that are homophobic because that just makes a big mess that I don't need to deal with until I have to. I remember I came out to a buddy when we were singing a lady gaga song about the disco stick. and we where joking about it and she said so who's disco stick do you wanna ride. Then I said I don't ride disco sticks, then she said oh ok. Turned out she was bi so made another friend that way too. I like how it felt like a smooth coming out haha

[idis91]

lol one of the guys at my school said i hope she is bi:)

[danamaze]

This is beautiful, thank you for sharing with us :)

[spiffytiffy07]

bahaha. try being in the military and going to a military gyno and them asking the same questions, and im just like. nope. i dont need birth control. no thank you. they were baffled. its hard convincing them i cannot get preggo.

[spiffytiffy07]

[spidersandbats]

I don't believe that we "come out" every time we tell a new person. It's not like just because I meet a new person and I haven't explicitly told them I'm gay that I'm now suddenly "back in the closet". If you're not keeping it a secret, you're "out". Telling one more person isn't "coming out", it's just informing them.

[Skorpz94]

When I came out to my sister, we were sitting in a booth at my family's restaurant and we were just reading. All of a sudden, I just felt like it was time to tell somebody close to me and so I told her. She didn't take it very well and started crying, but that moment has strengthened our sisterhood and brought us closer together.

[elangan14]

Hey Lori... I'm 18 and just finally realizing and beginning to understand my sexuality. Your sense of humor about everything really makes me laugh about where I'm at and where I can be in the future if I keep trying. Thank you so much for making this easier for me. Hopefully I'll be comfortable enough to come out soon! I want to be proud to be gay and I think I'm almost there. P.s. I have to go to the gyno next month for the first time. Should be interesting haha

[discotantrum]

It's been forever since you posted it, but I just found this (obviously)... and it's exactly where I'm at. It's hard being a post-religious queer member of a very heteronormative, spiritually active Christian family; it makes me feel like I regress to that 11th grade me. Things are unsure and shameful there, and watching your video helped me snap out of it for a minute and remember who and where I am now, and how happy I am. So, thanks for the solidarity and the reality check. :)

[noisiestpassenger]

Lori, this video is great. Coming out can be so hard. You've grown so much since. Thanks for sharing! I'm subscribing to your channel now.

[FlameDesire]

Thank you for sharing :D

I wrote a similar note to myself, maybe twice? It was similiar b/c it dealt with religion as well.

[wogchick18]

that is just so awesome that u read that out. when i first saw this video i was like wat can she be revealing and then when u said u rote that letter to yourself i was like omg i was so shocked becaue i rote a coming out letter to myself last year...

[raynemaniac]

you came out on the day of my birthday.. that's awesome. :)

[LGBTeens]

such an amazing video.

[ladyt9392]

Lori I love you so much for doing this vid, i think you're one of my favorite people and i haven't even met you. thank you so much for being you and sharing you're story.

[kattmedgitarr]

thank you for sharing!! you are so funny and i loveloveLOVE your vids!!

[lenibenimelesi]

great post, Lori.

my coming out to my gyno was almost exactly the same (I think most lesbians have been in a similar situation)! She forgot about it though, and when I reminded her, she drew two women signs in my file to make sure she wouldn't ask me about contraception again :D

[yogangel7]

thank you so much for reading that letter- it is priceless!

[birdgirl502]

There was a LGBTQ allies poster in the hall that allies could sign. And this girl I just barely knew, asked me to sign, so I said,"I'm not straight." And, she was all "oh, Ok, sorry..."

Now we are good friends and sit next to eachother in Archaeology.

[moname312]

I love you seriously ur are amazing thank u 4 sharing

[lydialeslie]

i just saw michelle on 5awesomegays and thought to check you guys out and you're all adorable! i don't have a coming out story because i'm a straight girl, but i'm definitely a subscriber now.

[VioletBob]

I found out I was gay in the 4th grade.. I tried to tell my closest friends and when one didnt take it well, I pretended like I didnt mean it now.. since freshman year of high school Ive been out with everyone except for my dads side of the family.

Theyre going to trip balls ( a big family of Spanish Catholics. Oh nos )

[erienspice]

My favorite story was with my mother. She was the one I was the most afraid to come out to because Iw as scared of her the most, and Iw as living under her roof. When I told her, I really wasn't ready to come out, but I wanted to go to this LGBTQ dance thing, and needed her permission to go. She would have asked anyway, so I told her, but she thought I was about to tell her I was pregnant, and then later she asked me who I crushed on. Awkward!

Erin

[java2guava]

lori, i could write the EXACT same thing about myself. like, no joke. glad to hear i'm not the only one

[majormoviestar2008]

When I came out to my family they already suspected that I was gay. My Mama was like well you never brought any men home. I just came out a work. The company is Christian owned and I'm surrounded by Christians at times it is tough but I'm proud of myself that I had the courage to come out in such a difficult environment.

[tigerdemon]

Thank you for sharing your story Lori. I had told a few of my closest friends, and my family members that I'm close to about my sexuality, but for the past few weeks I've been really considering telling all of my friends and family about it. After watching this video I decided to do it! Thank you so much for helping me! (and many others I'm sure!) :)

[LGBTeens]

<333

[tandawena]

I totally had that same convo with my OBGYN! Funny!

[blacktrinity771]

I came out to myself a few years before anyone else-- it was a slow realization, because I was falling in love with my best friend. I don't think there was any one moment where I thought to myself, "maybe i'm gay." There were lots of slow little questioning thoughts, and mostly I just thought I was weird. Coming out to my gay-boy best friend was amazing, and coming out to my dad was great as well. Everyone's been so supportive. It means so much to me. <3 Luv ya, Lori!

[AreoCrayZ]

so u like the same sex...hmmm...that's so cool..

[Deniz1015]

how was it that you started to tell everyone? who were the first people that you told?

[pennygoo]

wow thanks for sharing! it's so sad... just the fact that you were struggling with religion... i dunno but i think that religion isn't something that one should struggle with.

anyway my funny coming out story was with my bffl who is ALSO gay. we were at a sleepover with our friends... they both knew that we both were gay but i didnt know that she was and vice versa. i said girls were hot and she said "yeah i love girls... wait you're gay?" and i was like "you're gay?" and then we lol'd.

[pennygoo]

my coming out to myself was that i was confused, because i had had crushes on guys and on girls, but then my crush came out as bisexual and i was like "oh there's the solution"

[twinklewonderkid91]

I came out to my mum while sat in the car. We were talking about some guy that supposedly fancied me and I came out with. "I like girls", her reaction was "oh...girls..." lolz

[babyjoeysk]

I came out to myself in a weird way. I was walking home from the library where I kinda worked at that time. I was fourteen and little did I know about myself only that I was always different than others.

Well, as I was walking home I suddenly stopped in the middle of the street. And I asked myself: "What if you are gay?" And from then on the fact that it might be a possibility slowly creeped into my consciousness and just stayed there until confirmation :-)

[SarahLeeAnn]

You are ridiculously cute, and awesome for sharing this, Thank you.

[caroline008]

you came out to yourself on my birthday

[3secmemory]

mine too!

[cazyblood3]

you are funny please go to my videos cazyblood3 its prank calls

[barrelracinrebel]

I came out to myself in 11th grade. I was hired to a new job, showed up for my first day of work and my boss called me into her office to meet with two of my new coworkers who's shifts were ending. I was so ridiculously attracted to one of the girls it basically smacked me in the face, I had a really hard time focusing on what my boss was saying after that. hahaha

[tiemetothemurphybed]

It's funny, I had the same conversation the first time I went to the gynocologist. . . Well, except that after the "Why don't you use contraception?!" question she followed with "Are you TRYING to get pregnant?!" To which I obviously replied "It's kind of hard to get pregnant. . . when you sleep with women." She was a little embarrassed, and so was I, but I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one that's happened to! As always, a great video, thanks for letting us into your head.

:)

[lestudio76]

I had the same experience with the doctor. Its not even an option in their heads that we might not even need birth control with sex.

[transdude09]

I SOOOOOOO wrote things like that to myself!! lol.. Im SO glad to know Im not the only one! lol..

Love it!

[Stephysworld]

I totally wrote like hundrey texts to myself about how I felt weird. About how I knew what I felt but that it wasn't normal and acceptable into my life ... nice to know i wasnt the only one!

[paul20072007]

You seem to have had it all worked through by the time you came out to others. Too bad religion puts such a negative vibe on this.

[inspire27]

religion tends to put a negative vibe on most topics. i'm thankful i didn't have that to worry about when i was coming out. i can imagine it would be terrifying.

[RugbyRox21]

I love this video, especially your coming out letter :P it makes me feel hopeful to hear your story because mine is similar with the issues of religion and sexuality. this video made me feel like maybe youre right, and that some day things can be better, so thx :)

[showersckl03]

Hello, Beavers! Here's a topic-related question: I went with several of my peers this weekend from Wisconsin to the National Equality March in Washington D.C. and it was amazing! Were any of you there, and what are your responses to it? Keep being awesome!

Katka

[halfbro]

I loved ur coming out to yourself letter. It really shows how living the lgbt experience opens ur mind and really changes ur perspective on things.

[AnnieLives]

Thank you so much for this... it really touched me personally.

[MegActMus]

I was avoiding this guy in the hallway at my school, I spotted my english teacher so I told her I needed to talk to her about some paper. She caught on really fast and let me in her room. When we got in there she just laughed and said "you are gay, aren't you?" I was kind of taken aback by that because I was still battling with it myself and thought I was really undercover. She recognized my silence and said "Its okay, because one of your teachers is gay as well."

[AnnieLives]

I love this story ( :

[RugbyRox21]

MegActMus, just wanted to say that i think thats one crazy coming out experience! but its amazingly awesome as well! who ever that teacher was must have been one kewl person :)

[pete275]

you consider the obgyn a "random stranger"? I wonder what someone would have to do to become just an acquaintance then..

[Shpants9710]

That's really awesome.. i wish I had written something to myself.

[RobynBananas]

Not to Pimp another LGBTcollab, BUT...

LGBTMates is just starting, and we're doing Coming out stories this week too! Check us out!

[viciousandchaotic]

rad, coming out as bi isnt half as fun :(

[FirstIrishLove]

i came out to my mom just over a year ago and i was shaking the whole day and when i told her i bawled my eyes out the whole time. I was 19 at the time and i just wish that i could of told her earlier because at the time i had been with my girlfriend for two years in secret. My mom is supportive in her own way and i hope that the relationship only gets stronger over time...

[riehead]

I've held on to something like that too. Thanks for sharing!

[myxidlexrose]

Wow, Lori. That letter that you'd written to yourself is nearly identical to the one that I'D written to MYSELF when I was in the 10th grade. And yeah, I still have it to this day.

Thanks for that. :D

[bornadisaster911]

you know what i realized while watching this weeks videos, you guys are just like us. you guys had to come out to your family at one point. and now you have that experience and you made it through it. and youre okay, better than okay, you guys are amazing. thats fucking awesome.

when i came out to my sister she said "even when we were little i never pictured you with a guy, it just didnt fit."

that was probably the best thing she could have said. it made me feel even more secure with myself.

[shaunaxmcgov]

I came out to my sister because I was drunk and she called me on it. I came out to my other sister the exact same way a year later. My parents still dont know, but they will

[NinjaShelly]

Sorry got cut off...I responded with "does it matter" and she said no I don't care, but are you. I still couldn't bring myself to come out to her so I hesitantly said no. She said well at least you wouldn't get pregnant and laughed, cuz my 18 yr old sister is pregnant, but I think its safe to say she knows I'm gay or at least thinks I might be. I just can't tell her though. Any suggestions on how to go about telling her?

[NinjaShelly]

Thanks for sharing that with us. I wrote a similar not to myself at the beginning of this year, except mine ended up being like 3 pages long. lol But I was struggling with the whole religion thing and being in denial at the time too. I have accepted my super gayness, but I have yet to come out to anyone. I wanted to tell my mom this past Sunday, but wimped out. I'm too scared even though I know she will be okay with it. She has asked me before if I am gay and I responded with...to be continued

[ashp055]

LOVE everyone's stories!! i've only told 2 ppl so far and the convos went something like this...

me: so you and ___ are together right?

older gay sister: yeaah i knew that's what you wanted to talk about..

me: no it's totally okay...u and i have more in common than u think [likeing girls that is, not being with her gf.lol]

sister: WTF??

me: there's something i need to tell u

bff: shit ur pragnant aren't you?!

me: umm well wouldnt that be a miracle since i'm was gonna tell ya i'm queer

[cheesyches]

I actually came out to my mom at a concert via text. Not exactly how I had planned, but she kinda called me out on it so I didn't want to lie. Anyway after I admitted it, she called me and we talked about it and everything and it was awesome because Missy Higgins was playing "Where I Stood" followed by "Steer" which are 2 of my fave songs from her. It was perfect. My mom couldn't have been more understanding. She actually kissed her best friend right there to show their support for me.

[Georgiawebster]

@cheesyches I LOVE MISSY HIGGINS!

[TheBananaPOP]

you're my hero:)

[wayfarer628]

thanks for sharing. really appreciate it.

[lightcomingon]

I remember the moment I came out to myself. It was a very succinct moment while opening a liquor store door for my best friend, who would eventually be my first. I mumbled "I'm gay" and I pretty much never looked back after that. Now, how my friend became my first is a whole other story!

[Yami0Koigokoro]

I came out to my mom when we were on a walk. I was so worried about it, and apparantly she was going to ask me a few days before anyways! She said she still loves me and all that.. I don't know how she is on the support factor. I guess that comes in time, huh?

[gaygirl151]

I came out to my mom and step dad a couple of months ago and the first thing they said when i sat them down was "I think we know what u r going to say:" and i htought it was really awsome that the new and didnt care but im still not out to my friends or the rest of my fam including my dad if u have any suggestions about how to come out to friends that would be totally awsome

twitter: gaygirl15

[rockstarnano2]

ok so i came out through email.... its so fUNNY AND AWQUARD looking at it now but yea... i came out to my chorus class by making out with my gf in front of the classroom door and that went over really wierd

[aruck7]

thank for sharing.. my was funny and ened up a great experience. i had come out to a couple of ppl before but i wanted to come out to everyne in 1 dose so about 5 yrs ago on my 21st bday(11/04) i had a huge party and got on a mic and said to everyone if you straight stand on the right and if your gay stand on the left and i went to the left and then said if u didnt knw now you know im gay so lets all drink up! and everyone has been fine wth it ever since...

[jamlove89]

YOU CAME OUT TO YOURSELF ON MY BDAY!!! oh i feel special now!!! :-D

[1lyserg2]

"but....Oooooooh...thats so hot!" that part made me laugh xD

[xxxlilmilxxx]

which was funny because she then said i jus want you to kno that i dont mind at all and love you the same then she thaught about it for a bit and goes.. ohhh i like that you are tbh because then u wont steal my bfs haaha.. thena nother time we wer talkin and she asked me if i was certain if i was fully ga ha and i said yea and she said so you dont like willys? and i said no hey make me wanna b sick in my mouth lol and she goes ohhh u must b then because i love them haahaaa!! shes a geek

[xxxlilmilxxx]

well im kinda still coming out to people, my mum doesnt kno yet but hey.. my sister was funny to tell because we had a few people over one night for beers and i got a bit waisted and we wer on the subject randomly of lesbians and i said rosie im one and she jus said what? and i was like oh im jokin im jokin haha the next mornin im buttering my toast thinkin shes forgot when she says milly, you kno last night when we wer on about being gay? you are arnt you? and i startesd laghin an sed yea...tbc

[AssAlot89]

lol lori ur funny gf. so i never told anyone but friends, and friends are usually always cool wit it, but i never told family, my dad figured it out. i was always on the phone with her, and only hanging out wit her. blah blah. my mom i will never tell, her mom is a lez, and shes still in denial of that. my mom calls my grandmas gf jus a "room mate". so i will never tell her, then she'll deny me as her child as well right?

[AmandaWiddifield]

well a long time ago.. being.. a week ago.. I decided to come out to a friend of mine that was bi.. she obviously was cool about it but my other friend kept asking what we were talking about.. he said that I could trust him etc. with whatever it was.. so i told him.. and he said oh.. Amanda that's fine.. because I am gay too..

:) --I haven't come out to anyone else yet... ahhg.. too scared

[cutewitch772]

Ah, Lori. I, too, write letters to myself to read in the future. I wonder if I could find a journal entry from when I admitted to myself I was bi. I just came out to my mom yesterday... yeah lol. It wasn't terrible, but not super easy.

[chikiebaibe]

I had a hickey on my neck. My parents asked who put it there. I said my girlfriend. That's how i came out. haha

[elmosonfirehaha]

I came out to my mom in the awkwardest way ever. We were riding home somewhere last year, and I just randomly said, "Um, yeah... I'm bisexual..." It was the worst moment of my life. She said, "WHAT?!" and didn't bring it up again. Now I'm stuck being half-out, and I'm not even in high-school yet.

[qbambina06]

thank you so much for sharing Lori! I have an entire notebook of entries like that to myself. I wrote them in the same kind of confused language.. its strange to read them now. I dont know if i could read those to anybody else, but i know that what you just did will help so many people!

[scorpionic08]

Thanks for sharing your coming letter and wow I had the almost exact same coming out experience to a doctor. Almost the exact same dialog except i think she asked did i 'practice safe sex'. As a 28 year old lesbian it continues to be a frustrating experience when going to doctors....most assuming im straight...i often wondered if i should wear some sort of badge this says 'hello, im queer'

[yoyodindin]

hey great story! Ok im a bi so this is how my mum 'found out''. We were in car and she asked if i was stil with my bf, i said we just got back together cause we had a ''break''. and she was like oh did you or him have a break ahhh?! and i said me and then she said with a boy or a girl ahh?! haha and i said girl, and she rekons she always thought i was bi but whatever. She used to joke about it and be anoying but im sure she did that to all my sisters! But yea she just laughed! Not teling my dad!

[RainbowBright777]

wow...that was a great video...i can relate....i also came out in grade 11 and at the time I was kinda into God and stuff and coming out was weird for me...but i did it...and i'm very secure with my sexuality now....but thank you for this video

[sumiesz]

u remind me of Daina on the l word:)

[SmileyguyNZ]

This was wonderful, I glad you covered so much :)

My coming out stories are very negative so I won't say anything :).

[SalamanderNatsu]

lori your awesome! a great role model for all of us in the process of coming out, thx

[Cobain7766]

heh its funny how the gyno always finds out, hard to avoid. Love your energy

[Vuji222]

aside from you reading your letter to yourself (which i loved), i fucking love your jacket...a lot.

[TheAngieWarhol]

im in 12th grade. and i came out to 4 friends last year in 11th grade. but its so hard to just be normal and gay in highschool, it just seems sometimes like it cant work. My one friend, the frist one i told, doesnt believe im really gay because i still date guys(she told me that im just confused) because i just want to feel "normal" i guess, i know its not right...its really wrong infact, and it makes me feel like shit. But, this video really helped me, so do all of the beaver's videos. :)

[sigmund30]

OMG Lori...I love u for beiing so honest and open....the letter was so freaking cute cause i know I felt the same way....and that gyno visit, trust me my pcp asked the same question, yes they need to put the questions in a different order.

[lindseyclark08]

You know my first method of birth control? Prayer. Next method? I just avoid the penis altogether.

[flowerpot4147]

: -)

[alexje90]

can i just say i absolutely love that you still laugh every time you say "see you next tuesday." its just makes my day.

[Colawesumish]

I know its coming out week... but... It's going to be a while for me to come out. My best friend is gay, he knows i'm a lesbian, he recently got beat up, it's scary, but everything you guys do, it's so great, and i really look up to all of you! My life just isn't ready yet..

[EqualAndFree]

That's the main confusion caused by the name "National Coming Out Week". GLSEN actually meant it to be a week when people who had come out could share their stories to help those still in the closet. Do please choose your own time and come out when you're confident and ready <3

[greenmonster050]

Lori, your letter to yourself made me cry. I'm a freshman in college and am right where 11th-grade Lori was. It's like you ripped a page out of my diary and read it on your video. It's such a painful and scary situation to be in. I wanted to leave a comment thanking you and the rest of the BeaverBunch for all that you do, because even though this isn't an easy process, tuning in each week makes me feel like I'm normal for about ten minutes each day. You ladies are amazing, and so inspiring.

[kellybellows1]

Lori's letter reads as if written by all of us at some point in our lives. Things will get easier, slowly get easier...but it happens nevertheless. I hope that you stay strong and use this opportunity to discover who you are and where you want to be in the future!

[astrangeone]

Lori! I love your introspective stuff - my family just thinks that the status quo was perfect!

I'm working on it as well - I'm in the marketing committee for our pride stuff.

[skosh13]

That letter touched me a lot. I can totes relate to 11th grade you. So many of you guys have such great stories, advice...etc. I wish I could just sit down w/ ya'll and pick your brains for hours. :)

[analpenatration]

my obgyn asked me the same question , it went down like this:

gyno: what method of birth control do you use?

me: lesbianism

gyno: oh jess i'm so sorry i didn't mean to offend you

then she proceeded to explain the female reproductive system like a car engine so i could better understand. i think that was more offensive then being presumed heterosexual.

[kellybellows1]

LMAO! Damn, that's funny stuff!

[leolava]

Lori your great <3

[jrotcwolf09]

rock on with the diet Dew!!! Hell yeah. Go Lori. *high five*

[carmenkaylynne]

What made you think your family wouldn't accept you?

[PaintedRavensong]

It is so sweet to see how you were glowing when talking about your girlfriend. Love it!! That's how I feel about mine, too *smile*

[carmenkaylynne]

You're awesome Lori. =] I <3 you!!!

and yes I am in the same exact position you were in. =[

[letsdothisthing927]

My funniest coming out story was the first two weeks of my college choir class. I had the stomach flu and the professor said "are you sure you aren't pregnant?" I laughed along with a few others and he didn't realize what was so funny. He wouldn't go on with class until I explained. Needless to say I came out to 100+ people all at once because I had the stomach flu.

[itsmandydammit]

I basically just straight-up told my friends so I guess my favourite story was when I just got tired of telling everyone: when I was going back to class I gave my girlfriend (at the time) a kiss, a friend whom I hadn't told yet came up to us and said "I saw that", to which I replied "Yeah, you were supposed to."

Haven't told the family yet though...my sister knows, that's about it.

[cupcakebabymwah]

dont worry. i had to come out to the MRI technicians when i got one. almost exactly the way you did with ur gyno. VERY AWKWARD! lol. nice to know im not the only one.

[Pixiesoapbox]

That letter was so sweet! My funniest coming out story would probably be with a guy friend who everything thought I was dating. It went something like:

Guy friend: I'd always win at gay chicken.

Me: Bet I'd win more often.

Guy friend: No, cos I'm gay.

Me: No way, me too.

[bphoru]

sodom and gomorrah were destroyed because there wasn't one righteous person, had nothing to do with love. nothing in heaven or hell, can break ties of love, except you. the best part of our creator, given to us.

morality: its wrong to cheat this person

righteous: i care action\s(cheat for example) would hurt this person

i would worry about not being righteous, let judges deal their own fate.

[DAVETYIOP]

You came out to your gynecologist? I have seen, "Dr T and The Women"? Great letter you were very brave to let it out in a letter rather then keep it inside and let it be a burden! Congrats to you for doing it!

[leztiger]

so I when I was 13 I was helping my best friend move and we where siting in the emty walk-in closet in the master bed room of her old house don't ask my why I don't remember, so anyway I looked at her a said "I need to tell you some thing " she said "what are you gay" and I was like "well yay" then we went swiming. and that was that so I like to say I came out of the closet in a closet.

[ChannelRichard]

You are a hero for sharing this -- coming out to oneself is always the biggest, most difficult part. Most people don't use that as their coming out story, so I really appreciate that you did.

<3

[IHEARTBRIGHTON]

are you wearing scrubs ? :)

You surely are my dream woman :L !! xx

[ARboiWundr]

I hadn't planned on coming out to my family as soon as I did, but I had to come out to my sister in a sort of funny situation.

My sister: I ran into your friend Phil the other day.

Me: Yeah?

Sister: Yeah, I was wondering... does he have a girlfriend?

Me: Uhhh... No. Why?

Sister: I just thought that he was cute and I was just wondering...

Me: Okay... well I hate to disappoint you, but he has a boyfriend and it is ME... you cool with that?

Sister: OH!!

[danaalekseev]

great vid... i hope i'll find somebody like ur girlfriend, she seems so great when u mention / describe her...

[LLEBNAX]

I think one of my fav stories was with my bf...

(scene: both of us piss drunk, her lying on a couch, me lying on.. floor. lol.)

Obstetrics and gynecology (often abbreviated to OB/GYN, OBG, O&G or Obs & Gynae) are the two surgical specialties dealing with the female reproductive organs, and as such are often combined to form a single medical specialty and postgraduate training program.

YOU LOOK LIKE ALICE FROM THE L WORD!!!! OH MY GOSH!! HAHAHAHA

thank you for sharing your coming out story to yourself... :)

when i come out i´ll tell you... :( still working on that...

[xtoxicxrainbowx]

your coming out story is exactly the same as how Im feeling now and on my thoughts.even though Im not ashamed of who I am,but the confusion with God and not being able to tell my parents or family because of their beleifs.Its hard,but Im learning to deal.

Awesome and inspirational video Lori :)

I wish I could come out to my family but I need more time for that...Anyway, I came out to most of my friends already and they don't mind AT ALL! especially my bf...

[bme2strikefreedom]

P.S. my bf made me realize that i am really gay...i gotta deal with that

[tasdj]

my 2 funniest coming out scenarios with friends: Scene 1: Female Friend: *whispers* Tiff... are you bi? Me: Wha?! Not exactly, but how did you know? Friend: You just act very gay. There's something about the way you walk etc. Me: *facepalm* I guess I wasn't as subtle as I thought. Scene 2: Guy Friend: Tiff are you a lesbian? Me: You tell me. Him: I think you are. You talk to guys like buddies, but when you look like you have an ulterior motive when talking to girls. Me: *laughs hysterically*

[TheUrbanhippy]

Lori!

Your letter to yourself TOTALLY touched my heart, and it's so extra awesome that you kept yours, cuz I promptly burned mine in fear that someone would find it. My story is so similar to yours it's freaky.

I love telling the gyno that "my method of birth control is Lesbianism... no side effects." ...

[TheUrbanhippy]

... Most of the time they get a crack outta that, but it doesn't matter if they don't, cuz I definitely do. ;)

My fave coming out moment was to my conservative Grandmother who responded, "Gramma's not dumb dear, I knew waaay before your Mother." That brought me a lot of joy. Bless her soul.

Anyways, excellent vid Lori. Your honesty and realness is inspiring and ever uplifting.

Thank you from all of my heart.

Peace,

T...

[gelz4life]

Only difference is my family wouldn't accept it at ALL.
