As a lesbian, how did your family handle your truth?
It honestly took a long time for my family to accept that I am truly a lesbian and only in this past year have I finally gotten to that place. Besides my outwardly homophobic grandparents and indirect family and not even trying with them, both my parents would have rather believed I was bisexual and still had a chance of ending up with a man rather than the truth that I am gay. I feel like I had to come out ten separate times for it to really sink in that I will never be with a man. Still, I’m pretty lucky to get an overall tame reaction and be accepted for who I am in the end.As a lesbian, how did your family handle your truth?
