I’ve known I am gay since 6th grade, but I’ve never been able to come out because of my parents. My mom would I’m sure be supportive but my dad grew up in a household it was not normal to be abnormal. See he makes comments that can come off as homophobic or transphobic and I don’t know what to do. Fast forward to now there this girl I really really like in school that I wanna ask out but my parents I’m afraid would read my messages if we were to start to date and I don’t want that to happen and for them to know. I miss my childhood where things weren’t so complicated and messy. I hope others have the freedom to come out and be accepted Becuase that’s a privilege to have a family and community who will do that.
