I think I just realized I'm gay
November 4, 2010 at 3:21 pm
I have always wondered what my sexual orientation was, and I've had a couple of girls I'd liked, but it never felt the same as my feelings did for guys. Then it just hit me that I'm gay. I'm not ashamed, but I just keep wondering-- what do I do now?

Whatever you want. Don't let people push you around. Clap And good for you for coming out.

Remember, the ineffable creator of all things made you this way, so tell the christians to go skewer their testicles or ovaries with their crucifixes if they should presume to tell you to be otherwise.

Go hang out on a gay strip beach in Brazil, drink cocktails and get off?

On a serious note, tell the people that you feel are important enough in your life to find this information relevant, and prepare to have some mixed reactions. It may take some time for things to settle, and some relationships may not be the same, but you can rest assured that if you need to talk we're all here, and we don't give a shit whether you like peepee or vajayjay.
