She actually did me a favor. I figured it was about time. My parents were totally accepting.

Being outed as a gay man is a deeply violating experience, often characterized by overwhelming stress, panic, and a profound loss of safety and control. It forces a personal aspect of identity into the public eye without consent, frequently leading to fear of rejection from family, friends, or employers.

Quote:Do you think all gays feel that way? Every outing is unique to the person themselves. Some need help while others prefer to announce themselves. And then there are many who never come out and just remain closeted marrying and having a family. I encountered many of those in the Navy. It's entirely up to the individual.

You answered my question. You are just interrogating me so I will slip up and then you can malign me again to make yourself feel superior.. It's your one favorite obsession with the possible exception of Johnny Depp in a thong..
