well for me i never came out to anybody, i just show them what i do, and then they will say, so you are gay, and i will yes, even versatile!!!. i dont give a fuck coming out to anyone, cos no one came out to me as a straight person, so why gays?.
Thanks for sharing this. The black community (particularly the black CHRISTIAN community) is, unfortunately, rife with hatred, bigotry, and ignorance regarding homosexuality.
One would think that people that are routinely discriminated against would be able to identity with and relate to others who are rejected in the same superficial way, especially if those "others" are actually US.
Again, thanks for sharing...hopefully you'll inspire other young black men to embrace themselves fully.
I'm a straight black male, and I see what you're talking about!! The black Christian community would rather have you "fake the funk," meaning go ahead, get married to a woman, and repress your gay feelings and desires. Then they wanna get mad at YOU if you cheat on her with every guy in sight....
But yeah, be who you are and live in your own skin...
Jesus Loves YOU and he can help you get out of this lifestyle seek his help cuz we all need it im not forcing u to believe in jesus only suggesting thanks bye.
Yes, homosexuality is a lifestyle, just like skin color is a costume. Black people wake up everyday and choose to wear the skin of a people that are despised and discriminated against the world over...blackness IS a choice, you know! Similarly, gays can quit being gay whenever they choose, and opt for a life of depression, repression, dishonesty, and misery instead.
@afrolatinadamien: Maybe if you brushed up on your English you would learn how to apply things in their proper context. I have disagreed with my mom many times but that has not stopped me from loving her or wanting her to be my mom. Grow a brain and stop being the first to respond to other peoples comments....this clearly is not your calling in life. My original comment was intended as a compliment.
OMG! your story really hit home for me, i totally understand how you were feeling and i'm so happy that you overcame all that depression. i really wish the best for you in life because you seem like a great person. much love from england. <3
I don't agree with homosexuaity...but i like you on a personal level because you are a very kind and sincere person. I respect you and as a straight man if ever i would have a gay person as a friend it would be someone like you.
@DaOrigTruthSeeker Honestly i find your comment really stupid, you're contradicting yourself on many levels man. if you're not gay i don't see why you'd wanna be on this part of youtube in the first place......and secondly there's no way you can dissagree with homosexuality and want to be friends with a homosexual it just doesn't make any sense.
@phantomsuccour I thought that myself b4 I came out.. I thought everyone was going to hate me.. When I came out I was supposed that no one hated me and if they did I had a support system on YouTube were I knew people would be there for me.. Find that support someone where trust me it will change your life
Hearing your story about everything you went through is what we do not want to happen to any other gay teens and adults in the world....we cannot let this happen....we got to stop being closed-minded and be open-minded. it is okay if you are gay. it is okay to be yourself, it is not a crime to be yourself, its never a crime. and that my message to any other gay youth or adults.
Omg my heart pours out to you. My story is almost just like that minus the gay cousin and suicide. I smoked, partied and all that to take away from the pain and stress. I'm gay and I've told my mom and my mom made me tell my dad which she said she would never do. But I don't have my phone and can't talk to my best friends who I trust and who have been there for me threw this hard experience
This shall be my real 'first' video my coming out story (so far) since only my parents don't know. Yours is very similar to mine going out with girls, saying i was bi and stuff. :D
Wow! that is some story. You are a survivor for sure and you can certainly be proud of that! You made it and I'm sure life will get better. stay strong brother and be true to yourself and you will go far. Thanks for posting this inspirational story!
Great video...You cant even imagine how proud of you I am that you are this confident at age 16. Its normal to date girls when you are young. Its cool that you had a cousin to talk with about coming out.
