i only came out to my friends and my mom. not my dad because my dad is a judgemental close-minded asshole and i dont want to deal with his "its was adam and eve not adam and steve" BS so im just like "yeah im straight" when im bi so in a way im not technically lying to him but oh well
i went hyper on skittles in the school library and told all my friends, they said they could tell cos "im very butch" apparently, im still not going to tell my parents but my friends are pretty cool about it
My mom is still coming to terms with me being pansexual. I think if I was just lesbian she'd be used to it by now because it's a term that she understands... Me saying I'm pansexual is too confusing to her so she thinks I'm just going through a phase or just confused and trying to be trendy or whatever...
I Told My Mom I Was A Lesbian And She Didnt Talk To Me For 2 Weeks. When She Finally Did She Gave Me The Religouse BS. Then She Told Me I Wasnt A esbian Because I Didnt Try Both. But I Told Her. Well, You Havnt Tried Both So How Do YOU Know Your Not straight?????
Lol thanks for making this video... I have religious beliefs and I accept everyone for who they are.., we"re all humans and we should all be treated with the same respect.
im 12, and im TERRIFIED to come out, guys disgust me, and i hav a bf juss to stop the rumors about me ..... and most of my friends kno, but i love you and i love your videos :)
The only problem with the labels and being young: younger people are going to label you because they are immature. I know. Practically all of the kids in my school think I'm a lesbian, they don't seem to hear the fact that I like guys too. Most people just hear what they want to hear.
N girls im all rite all the way n i feel more flirtashious torwards them n bein with a girl feels rite n well i have a bf rite now n i told him i mite be a lesbian cus i deapise penis n feel gross wen amost guys flirt buuut he disagrees.idk if i love him cus we were best friends b4 we started going out or wat but i love him n he makes me happy but i despise wen he tries to get me down there im just like fuck no!so in ur oponion do u thinl i mite be lesbian?my mom n dad knos im bi:)
@destinydisastrous Please, shut the fuck up until you learn how to talk properly. By the looks of your grammar you're about 6 years old, so you shouldn't have a boyfriend anyways.
Im not sure wether im bi or lesbian o.o im only 15 so im not like trying to really pin poibt yet buuuut lets just say i have a penis phobia.i mean come on guy partz are growdy!
I didnt even get a chance to come out to my mom someone told and now my mom is all your an abomination I mean talk about makin a girl cry and I think shes punishing me for it I swear
The majority of my family are homophobic, I'm beginning to feel pressured when I lie to them about my sexuality. My friends know and are really supportive but it is just really awkward when my mum or gran are pointing out 'potential boyfriends' and my grandma is hell bent on setting me up with her friend's grandson! I've tried to tell my mum but it seems every time I am about to she comes out with a load of homophobic crap. Any advice? Sorry to ask but I feel trapped and dont know what to do.
U r my hero....I dont know why.....but u feel like a sister or something to me......i feel happier when i watch all ur videos........i dont know.....but i do know u make my day..everyday ;)
U r my hero.......i dont know why....but for some reason u feel like a sister or something......i dont know........i just feel happier when i watch all ur videos.....u make my day everyday
I was going to tell my parents that i am lezbian but I didn't because she starting saying that they are stupid for liking girls and stuff so I don't think I'm going to tell her but it sucks not being able to tell anyone
Oh dear, this will truely help me a lot. As you were saying don't put a label on yourself too early I was thinking about myself... I like girls. A lot. And I've just recently had a boyfriend, it didn't work out because it seemed too... Awkward. Like, not right.
It was really unfair, but at the same time like I told my mother there is still so much more to me, and I am still the same person that you love and like. Thats what i would advise someone to do today.
I'm terrified to come out with my mother,... I've tried, but what scares me the most is that she seems to be ''in denial'', so I've decided to try and tell her again in a few years, when i'm out of college, maybe then she can understand that it's no 'phase'.
Oh, and i'm 17... I think I might try again when I turn 18 (in April).
im a bi male i have came out to my mom and 8 of my friends but i also i want to come out to two of my friends and my aunt but they are against people who are gay lesbian and bi so let me ask u do u have any advice about how to come out to people the are against that life style
soo... i think ive watched this video like 5 times over the last 6 months and i still, for some reason, cant come out to my father. -sigh- i know my sexuality and so does everyone else... but him.
I told my very best friend that I'm lesbian and she didn't want to be my friend anymore or even talk to me, and she says that she didn't mean to be a bad friend, but it's really hard for her to handle. And was it bad of me to tell her at the point I did? I wasn't quite sure before I told her, but I've liked girls for a while and I was almost a girlfriend with another girl when I told her. We (the other girl and I) became girilfriends but we broke up pretty lately.
I just want to say this: I'm a Christian and I'm straight. I accept gays completely. I believe that God loves everyone and for these other christians to hate on you, it is wrong. They should be accepting and have an open mind. I could never find anything wrong with being gay. It's not hurting anyone. I wish you all the best of luck when coming out. Love is love!
Ahhh! I accidentally voted you down when I meant to vote you up!
Finger slip at the worst moment. D:
I just wanted to say that I really appreciate people like you.
I'm Christian and gay and have the same idea in mind, and it's really great to be reminded that straight religous people that support the LGBTQ community are out there! It seems like people like you are always drowned out by the worse of the bunch. :c
When I was younger, I wanted to kill myself. I know my (ex)stepfather didn't like or except the lgbtq community, I thought that if I came out that he would beat me or throw me out of the house, so I got to the point where I did wanna kill myself. There is nothing worse, for me at lest, to feel unloved, it made me depressed and I didn't trust anybody. When I told a friend how I felt she forced me to talk to someone that could really help me. It took me at lest two years to trust my mother, even
Just because someone is religious doesn't mean that people can't accept the lgbt community, even if some people like some of my friends think homosexuality is wrong, they should love the person even if they don't love your actions. Your mom was not behaving according to a good religious creed because maybe she doesn't like you then but she should love you.
she is right. i have yet to come out to my mom or dad but i came out to a friend and it really helped it made me feel like i could be myself around at least someone
I am a born again Lutheran Christian father of two daughters, I have told my daughters NOTHING can make me stop loving you NOTHING. If you are pregnant I love you if you are gay i love you my love is unconditional. I am a sinner you are a sinner God decides not me who he accepts. I would caution you not to turn your back on God based on people. God created you God loves you and I believe it is unconditional. If some choose or is born gay makes no difference to me. God is a God of love.
What a silly woman you are.How about important family holidays ,does LGBT Cater for those too?.Thumbs up to your parents ,you are a bad seed and I bet they are kicking themselves for taking that decision if you know what I mean.Pompous and sad little cow.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Twenty years ago ,your ancestors used to lynch black people .If my daughter is gay,that has nothing to do with me and I don't want any part of it either .I would prefer to think as her deceased than accept an abomination in my family tree.There is no law to force me to love her .I would rather have a criminal and give her my love than a lesbian.
@Asamaki29@Asamaki29 There's no law against it, of coarse, but wouldn't it be more adult like for you to considered something different, at least for a second? Change your view point and think how the other person feels? They didn't choose to be that way and many gay people suicide just because society won't accept them or even only their own parents. I think you owe to yourself, at least, to look at the world differently then what you grew up to know.
For those who can't come out safely, there is a way to do it anonymously. You can write a letter to whomever it is you need to address and then mail it anonymously to a stranger who will read and vaule your story. Excellent video.
you sound so maternal in this video:) i listen to you for three seconds and instantly trust you. thank you so much for supporting and helping people with this huge topic :)
i came out to my mom when i was 14. it was a weird time for me to come out to her because i was still learning to accept myself. but when i told my mom, she was so accepting of me, that it actually helped me to accept myself more. the actually coming out to her part is funny... i came up to her crying... and i was like... "do u know what im about to tell you?" (sobbing) shes looking at me like ihave 10 heads, poor women probably though i was going to tel her i was pregnant. lol. then i told her
I came out to my mom about a year ago and she still doesn't accept me we cant even talk about it without her leaving and getting pissed off. Im not sure what to do. Any tips?
@BrokenGirlSmile Not really much you can do except to just keep being yourself and hope that eventually she will remember that there is more to you than who you are attracted to. If she has the capacity to get past her prejudice and accept you as her child, then she will get there eventually. But if she does not, then that is a shame and she will probably regret it on her death bed when she realizes she abandoned her own child over a ridiculous prejudice. Good luck. If you need to talk I am here
I came out to my mom awhile ago & she was really good with it. She joined pflag. Well I came out to all of my friends & they were all amazing with it.(: But then my brother told my dad, and my dad was really angry & my mom doesn't except me being gay anymore and now i have to go to church & christian counseling. I'm not allowed to be gay anymore. I probably wouldn't be here without people like you and my friends. Thank you for everything. (: You are an inspiration.
Carly...love the video! I came out to my mom and her bf who lives with us, and she cussed me out a few times and told me that she will never be okay with it, and that she was discussed. Now I don't know whats worse, her reaction or her and her bf saying things to me like "when you find a husband," or "when you're bf...." That just lets me know that they completely don't acknowledge my sexuality. I don't know what to do!?

You know, what gets me really annoyed? It’s when parents start noticing their children’s ways and they rather live in denial, than accepting the fact that at certain age, it’s all part of natural instincts… great video thanks for adding the web link and phone #... ^-^
i agree. she understands alot. there should be more people like you out there. i had recently seen a video of gay harassment and i couldnt bare all the things those people said to that man. btw you are georgious:)
i no u say in the video that u don't have to tell every1 ur sexuality well i started college in august last yr and have not long finishd but when i first started i told everyone i was gay, i am now starting a new college this august and i don't want to do what i done last time but even if a convo arises like "are u dating / in relationship" and if i say yes then its "oh whats their name" and i really don't want my sexuality to come into it, i want to tell them more into the course. advice?
I am 26, first came out as lesbian last year. Parents nevet really said much. Came out as transgender 2 months ago. And now they give me bible verses and saying I can't be anything but straight cause I have a 6 year old.
The second group of people I despise are the materialistic people. They are the ones that are responsible for our current economic crisis. They should be treated as thieves. As a matter of fact, they are responsible for our current oil mess. Therefore, we should worry less about homosexuals and worry more about polygamists, intoxicated people, and materialistic people.
As a Christian I worry about two things more than homosexuality. And I know I get constantly bashed about this. First of all, I despise polygamy. Often I hear that aids was spread by homosexuality. I think the reality is that aids was spread by intoxicated people and polygamists. That's why I despise both. So I say that if you know anyone who is constantly intoxicated or polygamists, despise them.
@speedlearner well, i think what you MEAN to say is "promiscuous" people. see, its not really a mystery as to how the spread of aids hit america.. it came from chimps in africa. a man had taken a trip there, eaten chimp meat, contracted the desease, and spread it to his partner. now, wether this man was promiscuous, intoxicated, or NEITHER, had no hinderance on his spread of the desease through sexual activity. ..and yes, this man did happen to be gay.
@StitchGV I know exactly what I'm saying. Polygamy is judged severly by God and Jesus. King David and King Solomon learned this the hard way. If you don't believe me, just read the bible. Polygamy is a sign that you can't be loyal to anyone. Period!
@speedlearner well you're going by information thats over 2000 years old, has been lost in translation, and changed over the course of history by various kings and early popes, but we wont go there. for argument sake i'll assume the bulk of your beliefs is based more on moral value than the accuracy of stories. as such, christians are supposed to be loving and forgiving. hatrid is a result of "the devils argument". if you hate polygamists then you might as well hate EVERYONE different from you.
@StitchGV Furthermore, Jesus never got drunk. Yes, I'll admit he consumed a little alcohol once in a while. I know this because I fully read and understood the water to wine story. But he was never, and I repeat never, wasted. And I know there are plenty of Christians who would stand by me in that statement. There is no such thing as being responsibly wasted. Period!
@speedlearner you should probably also know that the alcohol in those days was atleast 5 times more potent than modern vodka because they didnt yet know the danger of not watering it down. one SIP of that shit would get any human being "buzzed", let alone an entire gobblet-full. also, geting wasted responsibly is simple: only do it in a save enviornment.. meaning not in public, around children, behind the week of a car, or without a sober friend.
@speedlearner oh, and as to polygamy and intoxication, some religousbeliefs are based on polygamy. all that means is a person can have multiple wives or husbands, and they're faithful to that select group of people. most mormans still practice it, and its for the purpose of greater procreation. like homosexuality, it doesnt hurt anyone, and the people participating are usually doing so willingly. theres also nothing wrong with intoxication as long as its done responsibly. even jesus got wasted.
I waited till i was an adult to come out to my parents so they couldn't send me to counseling or a gay camp or something...i was raised mormon and i thought my parents wouldnt talk to me or love me anymore but its been better than i thought. Your videos are so "real" you dont sugar-coat things and i love how you are helping people by making these kinds of videos. Thanks :)
@MusicHasMeAddicted Good plan. If things get bad there are support groups, temporary shelters, and, of course, your friends that can help you. Best of luck.
this is going to help a lot of children teens and adults. kind hearts help the world more then any advice ever can, you have both a kind heart as well as mature words of advice. i hope you find true happiness, you deserve it.
if i could come out to my parents i would but i know them the day i do come out it's the last time I'll ever see my parent... :( I'm ftm and im not out as anything according to them I'm their little ""girl"" and yeah I only do my cross dress outside the house and i know for a fact I'm ftm..
1. my mom sent me to straight camp.... i resisted at first when i was there but lets just say being beaten got me straight enough to be normal in society for like 2 years. not always the best thing to come out with a strict family.
@AsEazyAsABC If they ever try that shit again, just leave. Find a friend you can trust or a lgbt youth shelter and try to come up with a plan on how to become financially independent. If you need to talk to someone, I am here.
I'm so fucking proud of you. Look at how far YOU have come. As well as helping others be who they are...you blossomed into who I knew you always were. I love you so much, Carly. I always have.
@ArielleIsHamming I am so in love with you. We have BOTH come so fucking far it is astonishing. <3 You always inspire me and keep me going. I wouldn't have come this far without your pushing.
i only came out to my friends and my mom. not my dad because my dad is a judgemental close-minded asshole and i dont want to deal with his "its was adam and eve not adam and steve" BS so im just like "yeah im straight" when im bi so in a way im not technically lying to him but oh well

What a silly woman you are.How about important family holidays ,does LGBT Cater for those too?.Thumbs up to your parents ,you are a bad seed and I bet they are kicking themselves for taking that decision if you know what I mean.Pompous and sad little cow.

Twenty years ago ,your ancestors used to lynch black people .If my daughter is gay,that has nothing to do with me and I don't want any part of it either .I would prefer to think as her deceased than accept an abomination in my family tree.There is no law to force me to love her .I would rather have a criminal and give her my love than a lesbian.

@Asamaki29 @Asamaki29 There's no law against it, of coarse, but wouldn't it be more adult like for you to considered something different, at least for a second? Change your view point and think how the other person feels? They didn't choose to be that way and many gay people suicide just because society won't accept them or even only their own parents. I think you owe to yourself, at least, to look at the world differently then what you grew up to know.

For those who can't come out safely, there is a way to do it anonymously. You can write a letter to whomever it is you need to address and then mail it anonymously to a stranger who will read and vaule your story. Excellent video.

i came out to my mom when i was 14. it was a weird time for me to come out to her because i was still learning to accept myself. but when i told my mom, she was so accepting of me, that it actually helped me to accept myself more. the actually coming out to her part is funny... i came up to her crying... and i was like... "do u know what im about to tell you?" (sobbing) shes looking at me like ihave 10 heads, poor women probably though i was going to tel her i was pregnant. lol. then i told her

I came out to my mom about a year ago and she still doesn't accept me we cant even talk about it without her leaving and getting pissed off. Im not sure what to do. Any tips?

@BrokenGirlSmile Not really much you can do except to just keep being yourself and hope that eventually she will remember that there is more to you than who you are attracted to. If she has the capacity to get past her prejudice and accept you as her child, then she will get there eventually. But if she does not, then that is a shame and she will probably regret it on her death bed when she realizes she abandoned her own child over a ridiculous prejudice. Good luck. If you need to talk I am here

I came out to my mom awhile ago & she was really good with it. She joined pflag. Well I came out to all of my friends & they were all amazing with it.(: But then my brother told my dad, and my dad was really angry & my mom doesn't except me being gay anymore and now i have to go to church & christian counseling. I'm not allowed to be gay anymore. I probably wouldn't be here without people like you and my friends. Thank you for everything. (: You are an inspiration.

Carly...love the video! I came out to my mom and her bf who lives with us, and she cussed me out a few times and told me that she will never be okay with it, and that she was discussed. Now I don't know whats worse, her reaction or her and her bf saying things to me like "when you find a husband," or "when you're bf...." That just lets me know that they completely don't acknowledge my sexuality. I don't know what to do!?

You know, what gets me really annoyed? It’s when parents start noticing their children’s ways and they rather live in denial, than accepting the fact that at certain age, it’s all part of natural instincts… great video thanks for adding the web link and phone #... ^-^

The second group of people I despise are the materialistic people. They are the ones that are responsible for our current economic crisis. They should be treated as thieves. As a matter of fact, they are responsible for our current oil mess. Therefore, we should worry less about homosexuals and worry more about polygamists, intoxicated people, and materialistic people.
speedlearner 1 year ago
As a Christian I worry about two things more than homosexuality. And I know I get constantly bashed about this. First of all, I despise polygamy. Often I hear that aids was spread by homosexuality. I think the reality is that aids was spread by intoxicated people and polygamists. That's why I despise both. So I say that if you know anyone who is constantly intoxicated or polygamists, despise them.
speedlearner 1 year ago
@speedlearner well, i think what you MEAN to say is "promiscuous" people. see, its not really a mystery as to how the spread of aids hit america.. it came from chimps in africa. a man had taken a trip there, eaten chimp meat, contracted the desease, and spread it to his partner. now, wether this man was promiscuous, intoxicated, or NEITHER, had no hinderance on his spread of the desease through sexual activity. ..and yes, this man did happen to be gay.
StitchGV 1 year ago
@StitchGV I know exactly what I'm saying. Polygamy is judged severly by God and Jesus. King David and King Solomon learned this the hard way. If you don't believe me, just read the bible. Polygamy is a sign that you can't be loyal to anyone. Period!
speedlearner 1 year ago
@speedlearner well you're going by information thats over 2000 years old, has been lost in translation, and changed over the course of history by various kings and early popes, but we wont go there. for argument sake i'll assume the bulk of your beliefs is based more on moral value than the accuracy of stories. as such, christians are supposed to be loving and forgiving. hatrid is a result of "the devils argument". if you hate polygamists then you might as well hate EVERYONE different from you.
StitchGV 1 year ago
@StitchGV Furthermore, Jesus never got drunk. Yes, I'll admit he consumed a little alcohol once in a while. I know this because I fully read and understood the water to wine story. But he was never, and I repeat never, wasted. And I know there are plenty of Christians who would stand by me in that statement. There is no such thing as being responsibly wasted. Period!
speedlearner 1 year ago
@speedlearner you should probably also know that the alcohol in those days was atleast 5 times more potent than modern vodka because they didnt yet know the danger of not watering it down. one SIP of that shit would get any human being "buzzed", let alone an entire gobblet-full. also, geting wasted responsibly is simple: only do it in a save enviornment.. meaning not in public, around children, behind the week of a car, or without a sober friend.
StitchGV 1 year ago
@speedlearner oh, and as to polygamy and intoxication, some religousbeliefs are based on polygamy. all that means is a person can have multiple wives or husbands, and they're faithful to that select group of people. most mormans still practice it, and its for the purpose of greater procreation. like homosexuality, it doesnt hurt anyone, and the people participating are usually doing so willingly. theres also nothing wrong with intoxication as long as its done responsibly. even jesus got wasted.
