&
You.
Many people are targeted by bullies for being LGBTP. People are shunned, laughed at, treated like diseases and lower class citizens, just because they're a little different.
Discrimination has always played a part in the life of humans, at every turn, and that's not going to change.
Things may be tough, especially when you're going through the stages of coming out, and coping with the reactions of family, friends, classmates and coworkers. But, we'll be here to help you, every step of the way.
Here you can post advice, your experiences with family and friends, and let others know how you coped, and how to be proud of who you are, and accepting that this is you. If you're confused, feel free to post here as well. We can help you through that confusing stage, and help you figure out what steps to take. [/color] |

I will never forget my coming out experience.
Me: Ma? Dad?
Mom: What?
Me: Well, um, I'm biromantic.
Mom:... I don't know what that is.
Me: Well, it's a sort of asexual, but not aromantic.
Dad: Gimme a sec, Tir. I'm googling it.
Mom: Well, however you identify is fine with us!
Me: Oh.
Dad: Okay, so I got these results- *starts reading stuff off to my mom.*
Me: Go figure.

Everyone's coming out experience is different. I remember that when I came out, it had been to my Dad, outside, when it was freezing, and we had been discussing my unwillingness to wear a dress. At the time, I'd been having some confusing thoughts about gender, especially since my Mother kept trying to force me to wear a dress, but he understood. Sadly, my mother has been...less than happy about it. I mean, I'm not sure...She hasn't really voiced her opinion, but she's getting on me more and more about toning stuff down in public. My point is, not everybody is going to understand immediately, or be accepting, but the best you can do is educate them, and help them understand.  |

I'm sorry that you suspect that your mom is less than thrilled, I know it bothers me more when people don't quite say what's on their mind. I'm glad that they were at least more open than some.
