For me it felt like a one-shot deal. I told the most popular/loud mouth girl in the school and told her i didn't care who she told. Everyone knew by the end of the day. It was awesome because I knew I was ready.
i've only come out to 2 people who are really close friends of mine and am working on coming out to my family and am in the GSTA club at my school with amazing kids who are totally cool and i've been thinking of coming out to them, its just hard to say it and admit it to myself as well (even though i've sorta suspected/known since i was in 6th grade)
1:29 Thanks for saying that. A few people are doing that to me and it's starting to really bug me. I think I'm holding back now purely because I don't want my choices to be based on what they want. One question: How did you make them stop (even temporarily)?
I'd really like to commend you for saying, "Don't let being gay define you." I feel far too often the gay community allows their sexual orientation to define them and allows it to overtake who they are and those are the people who turn off heterosexuals who may have ended up being allies. So, I'd just like to commend you for saying that because I feel it is an extremely important and underpublisized message that needs to get out to the gay community. So thanks! :D
Unfotunately I didn't stay cute...I forgot to take showers a couple of days and I wore socks multiple times and I ran out of new clothes......all because no one was telling me I had to stay cute.
I completely agree. you should only come out when you're ready. As for your socket.. i'm sorry :( and as for you having to talk to your parents... i love that you're so comfortable to talk about it when you feel ok :D <3
omg korey thank you for making this video. I think a lot of people forget (even other gays) that it's up to you when you want to come out. A lot of times other gays shun you because you're not "out" and for a lot of us its hard (mostly when dealing with family) and everyone's situation is different. I'm out to friends but not to my family and it's gonna stay that way till I am ready. And I don't like it when other gays have a negative opinion towards that.
korey you are so right!, DONT LET BEING GAY DEFINE YOU!!!, being gay is just a part of every single one of us (gay people), same as being straight or whatever, live your life happy and try to find the best people to be around
I missed you guys sooo much! Youtube was so boring with out you guys. I loved the light socket, it was cute. But the new opener is great! Glad you are all back! <3
I love that you say don't let being gay define you because I notice that's what a lot of people do. I have this friend and she acts like being gay is all that I am. She'll stereotype me and it really pisses me off. Well, there's nothing I can do. I'm just glad you're here, as well as the other guys, to spread wisdom and love. :)
Very well said I agree completely. Being gay may be a big part of many peoples' personalities, but it is only ONE piece. We are too unique to be defined wholly by our sexualities. It shouldn't be that big of a deal. Be gay! Be whatever! Just be happy!
I find my sexual preference absolutely irrelevant in whatever social relations I have (until I start dating someone of course), so I just don't talk about it. I told my mum when she asked, but my dad never asked so I haven't told him. I'm sure my mum has.
It's just sort of a non-issue, which is just the way I like it.
Your message was wonderful! I think you said all the right things that aren't traditionally said. I stayed extra cute today :) Warm weather will do that
love this. sometimes coming out is not a big process. Because ppl don't necessarily have to "hide". Sometimes you just are. I wish I heard more stories like this and it weas more common
Well, I don't thin I can do cute. At the age of 48, cute is a bit of a reach. So I will remain something BETTER than cute! I am Santa Claus! Welcome back, by the way.
Hey Korey, sooo i saw you yesterday at Tyler's shindig, i gave you a bunch of crap for breaking the pinky promise you made me :), and um, i think i was being a little bit over the top :P but i just wanted to let you know that im not legitimately angry :D, i just wanted to give you a hard time hahaha, but i dont think you should get back to me because its weird if someone has my number and i dont have theirs :P
stay cute is one of my favorite lines because of you. I say it to my friend everyday when we're leaving school I scream it. so everyone knows to stay cute
corey, I'm so proud of you for making a legit video =) Just kidding, your videos always rock! you def. stayed cute and I cant wait to see what you guys have in store for us!
I am becoming a better multitasker by watching the videos with Joe's music in the background because I start singing along to the music while I listen to you and type the comment ((:
happy coming out week :) (come out and SUPPORT not come out of the closet :P i agree, people shouldn't be pushed to come out when it might not be a good time in their life.)
so did you like.. tell your mom you had a crush on a boy when you were a preteen or something? they must've figured it out from something. but w/e, if they know and you didn't have a big convo then that's cool :)
anyway i <3 you, i tried to stay cute, & i forgive ya for almost forgetting to make this
