Parents who are religious or not NEED to understand it’s not our fault we’re gay not a choice at all... God made us gay for a reason nothing wrong with it ! Be yourself 👍👍
You were born gay because it was in your DNA.
Alien Speaking I disagree God made it that way
Gary Gary if god made you gay he wouldnt of said it’s forbidden
Alien Speaking Jesus never said one damn word about gays NOT one word
Kur'an is the book of muslim. Kur'an never say being gay is haram. But it says don't act like a gay basicly
When I came out my mom started crying then I started crying and my parents accepted me and I never spoked to them about it again
Your lucky I hope you never have to cry again for being gay 🤗sending you a big hug
I am gay also I understand totally
OMG THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED WITH ME 😮
sooo. will they never meet your partner? how are your partners parents, have you met them? best wishes.
Thanks for inspiring me. I'll tell my parents soon ❤️
cleber santos had you told them ?
I love in Lehi utah and I a member of the church of Jesus Christ of later day saints. And I haven't told anyone but some close friends that I am gay. Your vids have really helped me calm down and relize everything will turn out ok and for that I thank you guys. You guys are some of my fav UA-camrs cus I feel like I can relate to you guys so thank you! Sorry if you actually read this 😂
I live in Scotland and we have a Latter day church here and the guys that walk around 'missionaries?' are from Utah and are extremely friendly, I wish I could have meet a Mormon bf, stay strong and don't rush babes xx
I’m LDS and gay... in the UK and Ireland the church and its members are a lot more open and not really as conservative as members in Utah. Our stake president held a fireside for all 18-30 lgbt within the stake and he was brilliant. It really made us all feel loved.
@@mrmanor101 That sounds so cool, awesome to be able to hold on to your beliefs and not have to compromise love 😍 😍 😍
I agree about people being exposed to gay people. When I came out some of my cousins had certain religious views, about gay people but after they found out I was gay they educated themselves and are now allies of the community.
AMEN!!!!! Boy Scouts is were I found out for sure I was Gay in church, I had multiple experience with guys in church
You boys are SO lucky to have found each other.I hope you stay together permanently…Linc I wish I had a boyfriend as awesome as you …take care lovely boys❤️🌈🌈
So Inspiring, I’m gay, I’m 29! I have cerebral palsy I use a walker and wheelchair, me and my ex-boyfriend dated all of high school from 04 to 09 after high school his parents found out we was gay and stopped us from talking, on December 11th,2018, we hung for 4 months and they found out we was talking again and stopped us from talking again, please pray that we become friends again thanks!
I’m literally crying before work rn because I want to come out to my friends and family but they are really religious. I feel like if I do I’ll get kicked out. I’m tired of living a lie I just want to be myself
Same situation with me 😢
Great video I'm a little older but i came out when I was 16 in high school and i had a boyfriend we graduated in 86 I'm married to a great guy i even took his last name love is love be yourself be proud of yourself can't wait to see the next video love ya both 😍❤🌈🌈🌈
I think the mormon connection is very interesting, talk more about how u dealt with the church and your struggles with church teachings about being gay. I had to leave the church because I couldn't deal with it. My heart broke the day i left the church. Thanks for your insights.
I had a similar experience with regards to a Conservative town, I do think for us both it built our character and gave us a moral compass and made us better people today, something that seems to be lacking in the gay community, love you guys, hope you're enjoying your new home 😁
i was outed as well by someone else and as someone who grew up mormon and in utah as well it’s one of the scariest feelings, i was looking forward to this video and i’m so glad you shared this, it’s a good feeling knowing there are other people and people i know who are going through or went through the same thing, so thank you for sharing!! xx
Love the video, you guys are one of my favorite youtubers. I can totally relate to you. Being gay in a religious family is a little nerve racking. Good luck with the new house.
Your stories are great! It took me many years to reconcile being gay with my faith, but I now realize God is pure love and delights in his LGBT children. Btw, you are both so nice, radiant, and gorgeous -- and so blessed to have each other. Love to you guys.
I love your videos and I love what a sweet and loving couple you are. I was raised Mormon, and went through High School in the 70s. Back when the church was even more homophobic than it is now. At that time, there was no internet, there was no UA-cam, and no one in professional life was out and being a positive role model. Back then, it was still thought that being gay was a choice, and not how you were born. So that put all the blame and all the guilt and all the shame on the gay individual. I'm glad that times are changing and it is so much easier to be accepted. Love you both and wish you much happiness and success
I never came out to my parents, although they knew it was never talked about. They hinted about it and made comments about someone we knew who came out as gay and what did I think. I just did not want to acknowledge it to them or really even myself at the time. I liked that you were there for your friend and I do understand the religious aspects of it. Keep up the great videos.
Another great video.... I was born in the 1970s and never had anything like this to watch. I think it’s absolutely great that there are people like you who are willing to tell their stories on UA-cam. I honestly believe that your videos will help many kids come to terms with their sexuality... whatever their religion...
it’s also amazing to hear about your relationship.... it shows that you can be gay and live a normal and happy life... yes, you still have to pay all of the bills whilst struggling to go out all of the time whilst being seen in the latest fashions... (lol)... congratulations on a great channel... please keep it up!!!
You never did post any of those crazy high school stories you talked about . That would have been so much fun.
Linc, your coming out story is so good... I'm glad that you have a great partner in Canyon and thank you for being open to all about your story.
Awww I’m so happy you are in a good place now ! And in love.. that’s a win win in life ❤️❤️
Thank you for posting this!!!! I recently had the same issue with someone really close, and it helps a lot!!
Everyone should sneak out just to experience it.
Thank you, you are encouraged and it is very important if someone is planning their coming out, just like me ❤️❤️
Dobry Lód I wish you the best when you come out 🙏 good luck you will feel better I sure did
I had no clue, never thought you are gay but respect you!
A great video. The Mormon, Catholic, and conservative evangelical churches are horrible. Glad you survived it Lincoln. I’ve left the church over a year ago after 64 years.
Lincoln... dang! That was a story. You have come a long way. Everyone has a story. You still found your way. I was glad your relationship changed with your parents. How did you make peace with your faith and resolve those issues to live your best life? You offered some good advice to those who will need that advice.
Love your honesty mate 😉❤️
Thanks for sharing. I'm sorry things were so tense with your parents.
Linc, you are SO super cute in this video. Don't know why I never saw that before. WOW
Connor franta vibes with the thumbnail and the setting, especially the plants.
Hello Lync ! , i’m Canadian, and there are many things similar with US, many used to say - when US get a cold, Canada sneeze, but in fact , there are more Thant that. Canadians don’t get their life runs by religion as much it is in your country. Perhaps the jehowa witness, a bit but not much of people. How can you let any religion run even a bit of your life ? This question should be answered by both of your parents . And getting them out of your life ,is the best thing to do for your health . It’s a no negotiation thing , they accept you with all your things , your life style, the person you choose to live with,and background . Only crazy stubborn people don’t change their mind. Be happy for who you are and how you live . That’s it!
Thanks for sharing your story! You're a super cute couple. All the best!
I told my Mom a couple of weeks ago and it went well. Now I need to tell Dad. 🤞
My husband and I are now 2 old gay guys (69 and 72). My husband was a good Mormon boy and got married early and had six kids. He got drafted to fight in the VietNam ware and came back disillusion with the Church.
As a result, we have 6 grown children and 13 grandchildren. 3 of the kids are active LDS. They decided that Heavenly Father would rather have them love their Dad rather than shun him because he was gay. I was at the birth of many of the grandkids. Since they have had other step-parents I told them they cold call me their "step friend". Actually, the Grandkids call me Uncle Steve which is fine with me.
While I don't believe that the Garden of Eden was in Jackson County, Missouri or that one day I will have my own planet, I have come to appreciate many of the positive aspects of the Mormon Ward structure and family life. I also recognize there are "ex-mos" (ex-Mormons) and "pro-mos" (Progressive Mormons). And the Church has evolved somewhat on gay issues -- now it is OK to be gay as long as you don't act on it -- a neat trick if you can do it.
In any event, I think y our video should be helpful to other kids growing up Mormon.
@@nuuraabdulkadir2548 I am Jewish and my parents accepted us. They passed on before we could be legally married. Dusty's Dad died before I met Dusty. I met and spent time with his Mom who was in a nursing home. She kind of knew we were together but we did not discuss our relationship with her. Our main relationship has been with our kids and grandkids some of whom are active LDS and are accepting of us as a couple.
Loving a member of your own sex rather than falling in love with (and getting a soulmate)of a person of the opposite gender should not matter in the slightest….it isn’t and shouldn’t be a big deal!!…I’m not talking about promiscuity or lust but loving committed gay relationships.Sexual love is just a part of love…and being gay is a LOVE ORIENTATION not just a sexual one.

I love how nonchalant you are lol
I think that guy it looks pretty nice but I want to see his video if you can make one on in your channel I’m more than happy to see it
I realize this video is three years old now in June of 2023. But I would have asked what made you feel like you had to start deciding about making a decision about yourself. In other words, how did you first get to this stage. Were you finding boys attractive? Did you go as far as fantasizing what sex with a guy would be like, even kissing a guy. Did you first experience these things before you started tell yourself that you must be gay. And the fact becoming you have none of these thoughts about a girl at school.
really cute video!😍
Oh sheet I'm from Vegas!!!
❤💖
One thing you said i can't get out of my mind is your parents have never been around a gay person. I can assure they have, only they just didnt know it. Mormonism makes people keep that secret about themselves, just as you did. It would be nice if churches would meet gay people so rhey understand it more. There have been some that met with Mormon church leaders to discuss the issue and how they might change in ways to work towards acceptance. Needless to say, that was not happening. Changing a religion in that way is near impossible to do, no matter how much leaders learn on the sibject if gay. Too focused on build this perfect life of God, the only thing they know how to do.
I'm so happy that your parents has been open to you and Canyon and accepting your relationship as best they can. They didn't shit you out, something Jehovah Witness' do. They tell that child they can never speak to them or their siblings ever again. No communication by phone, email, text, nothing. Which is very, very sad. So feel lucky and blessed and never take for granted that you have your parents as some part of your life.
Do you have any brothers or sisters and if so how did they take your coming out? Who are you named after, names have meanings? What kind of job did you have in Las Vegas? Does you boyfriend have brother or sisters and if so how did they take your coming out? Who is your boyfriend names after? Thanks and thanks for sharing.
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Really like the video, but the sound in the background is like a phone's ringtone and it was really annoying to hear throughout the video.
I came out to my Christian mom on her death bead. She accepted me. I’m fucking terrified to come out to my even more Christian dad who’s known to be violent with things.
I came out when I was 15. I’m 19 now😅
It seems that you live for the real you than that guy, but I would like people to control their own life than being impacted by others
Its ok of being gay as long as you live good. Don't worry about your parents, they still think about you and they miss & love you. I love you guys mwah!😉😙💕
Who needs parents when they don’t accept a reality? ,you surely don’t need them to encourage you, to support your, or to accept who you are so.... wait until, they made the next step,nothing’s emerged from bone heads. They don’t realize what effort you done to accept yourself.keep the lines close . I wish you the best with your partner., building your life & love story. Take care.

First
When you say just you today, are you Linc or Canyon. New people don't know who you are. Say your name at the beginning of each video so people know who is who. Said this before but I guess my comment wasn't read. Trying again Linc or Canyon. !!!???
That was Linc
My parents were weird about it they accept me but prefer straight
Very cute boi
Hello I am super gay Ilike white guys I am a bottom and I love to be gay I am forever gay
Coming out for me was actually the easiest thing in the World. My family doesn't believe in religion.
So why are there so many religions all claiming their unique route to God? The answer is that they are all man-made fairy tales mostly written in an age when world literacy was low and the knowledge of science, mathematics and the universe was much less than it is today. Even today we know very little about it, but enough to debunk many of these so-called religious myths.
There is obviously a creative force at work which is beyond human comprehension. Everything in our world is finite; it must have a beginning; and end; a boundary. We cannot grasp the concept of infinity which underlines our insignificance in the universe. So why do most religions try to imagine God/Gods as super-human(s), living up there in the sky somewhere? Absolutely ridiculous.
Did you realise that the first Christian bible was published 400 years after Christ’s death? All the multifarious stories were passed along by word of mouth. No one knew anything about Christ until he was 30 years old and 3 years later, he was crucified. All the stuff about 3 wise men, being born in a stable, a guiding star, Angels coming down and all of the other tales are man-made fairytales.
For humans, love is natural and has no boundaries or human control. We all look for love, and when it comes it is magic, irrespective of gender. Hate is taught.
Two cuties.
Ay llobio sorry. Alurbi inglis
Just remember it's mostly to do with what genes there born with
And since u love boys it means you were born with female genes and the same thing goes for the lesbians
And if that is somehow made from God then it must be your God given right
I’m in this and I don’t like it
Gay people aren’t bad. The only reason the church is “against it” is because a family cannot be naturally made that way, one with kids anyway
👎
you are not fooling anybody hahahaha
I had no clue, never thought you are gay but respect you!
