    I remember when I was 7, my only cousin on my mother's side came out. He told his parents he was in love with another young man (they were both teenagers). His father was supportive, but his mother freaked the fπ¢& out. She yelled at him, saying "You're can't be in love with a boy! That's wrong!" His response: "Why not? I mean, you're in love with that thing in your nightstand..."
    Almost 40 years later, and it's still THE BEST clapback, imho.

    When our middle daughter came out we told her we loved her and always would as long as she was happy and then to go do her homework. (She was in 8th grade). Keep in mind though I'm pansexual and my hubby is a huge ally. I didn't have a good coming out story though and wanted my daughter to have the support I never got. She is now 20 and married to a wonderful young woman and they are very happy.

    My parents' reactions to my coming out at 17 were so different. My mom had the emotional "I know and I will always love you" speech while we cried and hugged when I got home from school for Thanksgiving break, and then later that day when we were picking my dad up from work (he's visually impaired so he can't drive) I told my dad who immediately cheered and said "I knew it and that's why you're my favorite!" because he no longer had to worry about lil teenage me bringing home boys and then proceeded to light up like a lightbulb went off in his head and yelled "CAN I TELL YOU SOFTBALL JOKES?!"... it was a good day

Asked if he was happy. Said yes. Told him thats all i care about, his happiness. Him and his parter celebrate 11 years together on Christmas. Love them both. Wish all parents, and siblings, could be more supportive.

    When I came out to my mother, all she could do was ask what *she* did wrong. Probably the lowest point of my life as up to that moment, I had been so close to her. I haven't talked to her in almost 10 years now and she has made no effort to reconcile.
    My sister-in-law was so completely polar opposite of that reaction and embraced me for me. I had never had a deep relationship with her before then and ever since, we have been closer than ever. She has been my biggest ally and advocate.
    When the parents reaction is positive, it tears me apart inside...because I am so happy for those people and so sad for my own parents' reactions.
    I love you guys for being allies and advocates and for simply being you. *hugs*

    • @bettycross8872
      @bettycross8872 6 місяців тому +1

      Ryan -I’m a parent and I am SO sorry for your sadness. Know that your mom’s reaction was all about her and not you! Still that doesn’t begin to make it ok for her to remain unsupportive for years. Her initial reaction is not uncommon, but her apparent inability to learn about human sexuality and embrace differences is. There’s always a chance she’ll “grow up” and come around to understanding. My guess is she somehow blames herself. For years my mom blamed herself for my brother’s horrible (genetic) neurological disease. Moms are weird like that sometimes.
      Embrace the family that accepts and celebrates who you are, live your life with love and joy, and maybe now and then send some of that love and joy (energetically but silently) your mom’s way. It may not make things change but then again, you never know, it might. Love and hugs and congratulations (on your honesty and bravery) to you 😊

You are who you're meant to be. I'm sorry that your mother reacted like that, it's heartbreaking. Stay strong!!

    My youngest daughter never told us about being gay. She just decided not to hide it. I was taking a friend of hers home (and she came along, of course), and when I dropped her off, she gave her a kiss goodbye. Not a "friendly" kiss, but one that a couple would give each other. It was a surprise in the moment, and I talked to her mother later that weekend about it, and she didn't know either. It never changed how we feel about here, though, and include her partner in events. Her partner has also since come out as a trans man, but again, changes nothing for the rest of the family on our feeling for the two.

    I had a horrible coming out experience. I already knew my mom was homophobic, so I didn't plan to tell her until I had moved out. When I was 16, my sister told my mom I was gay, based solely on a rumor she heard at school. I had to spend a year with no life outside school. Over 15 years later, and I still don't trust my sister, or my mom, with anything in my life. My one bright spot was my dad, because my mom had to call and out me to him, thinking he'd be on her side. When she made me take the phone he said, "I love you no matter what, and it's going to be okay."
    That experience, is one of the reasons I stand up for all my LGBT+ kids at work. Each one of them are worthy of so much in life, and I want to make sure I'm always a safe space for them.

    My friend was unsure about coming out to his dad after he had already told his mom. So he hid in a closet and called for his dad. Wondering what was going on he storms over and told his son to come out of the closet. He simply opened the door and handed his dad a flag and walked away. His dad looks at it and goes duh. The next day he came home and the flag was hanging on the wall. It's the first thing you see when you enter his home.

My mam was really supportive and said how she loves me no matter what and she also said "what kind of mother would I be if I didn't love you just because your a lesbian" and gave me a hug. Now my mam, sister and brother make a lot of gay jokes to me and there so cheesy but very funny, I'm blessed to have such an amazing and supportive family, my family have saved me a lot i can never thank them enough, I'm sorry for this long comment just think this is a safe place to share, thank you for being such wonderful people.

    Ooh snap, I too have a Masters in Criminology and Criminal Justice. I totally see where you are coming from with the social experiments. What I love about the "What Would You Do" series (which the final clip is from) is that when people don't step in, they ask them why and the answer to that question is always interesting. There is a lot of 'I really should have and I feel embarrassed', some 'It wasn't my place', and the odd 'I'm not sure why'. The show has also inspired people to step in outside of the show's context, realising they need to step in when help is needed.

    I only came out in December of 2023 (I was days way from turning 34). First I wrote a letter to my dad and bonus mom. Then I texted each of my 2 brothers who live across the country. Then I made a reel on IG for the world to see. I’ve known who I am for a long time, but living in a very conservative area, I was nervous about how I’d be treated if people knew. I can now say I am panromantic demisexual, or queer, and have it be a relief to have it off my chest.

    Personally, I also very much like the framing of „letting in“. (A cursory lookup tells me that „Inviting In“ is also used. It has been years since I encountered the concept and incorporated it).
    It feels more intimate to me and changes expectations. There’s a big difference in conceptualizing who enters which space. For me, letting in emphasizes the trust sharing that info with that specific person and not everyone. This is also crucial when talking about confidentiality.
    This is not to ditch coming out but to broaden the way we can approach the process and have more choice.

    "The world would be a better place if we all helped each other a little bit." I 100% agree, you never know how much someone needs it or how you could be making their day. Plus we all need help once in a while. Oh also, I believe that the video that you guys were wondering if it was a social experiment or not was from the show "What Would You Do." You were right, the family were actors but the woman coming up was a stranger who had no idea it was for a social experiment. The strangers get informed that it was a filmed social experiment/tv show afterwards.

    Hey guys, I might not be the usual audience for a video like lith as I am a hetero male. But my best friends who are both bisexual told me about your content and I find it very cool to watch and it helps me unterstands whats goin on with my friends on a daily basis better, so thank you for all you do. But onto the reason I'm writing this comment. as I was watching the Video I thought its was really wholsome, but when Hailee talked about a parent asking their child if they feel "worthy of beeing alive" I broke down in tears, because while I don't have to deal with the predjudice that the LGBTQAI+ community has to deal with I never had that question asked to me from both of my parents and realised that they also never made me feel that way too. So while this sound sad it also made me realise that I dont need their approval to be my own person and living my own life. So thank you for making that statement and helping me realise that. Thank you for all you do and keep beeing awsome. Lots of Love Michael (P.S. sorry if this is hard to read as english is not my first language and I had a hard enought time writing it as it is :) )

    the social experiment is a real life TV show called "What would you do" it showcases difficult social situations with actors but thee reactors are real people. Its pretty cool an an emotional ride. If i may add a word of caution in condemning someone's reaction to big news. In these cases it is never ok to negatively react to your child, sibling or friends coming out. But please remember you may have had months or years to process this information and the person you are telling has had seconds. When my sister came out to me I hugged her and told her i loved her, and i needed a little time before I could talk to her about it. Next day we spent hours chatting because she let me process what she had been processing for the last thirty years.

    When i came out i was around 12 or 13 everyone always suspected i didnt have any romantic feelings for guys but i came out my father looked me dead in the eye and said "well i kinda thought that and im glad ur not going to get pregnant" my mom on the other hand began to verbally, mentally, emotionally, and sometimes physically harm me because of who i am she would always call me vulgar names so i was never really happy with who i was and it still is odd talking to her about my love life even if she is a little more accepting of it (im still confused on why she is so homophobic to me when her own brother has a husband) but it was difficult but i surrounded myself with people who were part of the LGBTQIA+ community and allies and i never felt more loved or cared for

    26:09 I've personally had something like this happen to me. I'm disabled and I've had to go to the ER a few times. My knees tend to give out or I easily trip over transitions in doorways, my mother typically would drop me off at the entrance and go find a place to park. I've walked in the first set of doors where there are soda machines before getting to the lobby. There were actually 4 times this happened, where I've fallen, and had to crawl over to something to get back up and struggling bad. People walking by (Including Doctors & nurses) didn't even give 2 sh*ts seeing me on the floor. I had to wait for my mother to finally come in and help me.
    I felt so embarrassed and worthless that this happened and I wasn't worth any effort of someone just asking if I needed help. I cried and just felt so awful then.
    Still do now tbh

    As a straight father of an 18-year-old, I've always tried to let my son know that it doesn't matter to me who he loves. It breaks my heart when I hear of kids coming out to their parents and being rejected. I've seen videos of older guys giving out "Dad Hugs" at pride parades and grown adults who have been rejected by their own fathers breaking down crying because they're getting the hugs and affirmation they didn't know they were really missing. Some day I'll do that. Of course, at my age it may be Grandpa Hugs, but I just want to hug everyone who's been rejected by their parents for just being who they are, and tell them it's ok, they're great just as they are.

    a younger family member came out to me before most of the family knew. The first words out of my mouth were "I love you always and I'm honoured you trusted me enough to share" (she wasn't fully out at the time, she's out and proud now with a lovely young woman who fits into our family perfectly so I felt ok to share). I wish we didn't live in a world where sharing who you love is something that requires an advanced notice, but till we live in a world where its safe to just be who you are, the only appropriate response is love and support in my opinion.

    I’m so glad that there are so many people out there with supportive parents. My parents to this day don’t accept my sexuality (I’m pan). It was very hard for me at first because it took me over two years to get the confidence to come out and I can still see the disappointment fall over their faces to this day. However as I’ve grown I’ve learned that I can still love them and myself even if they don’t support me and I’ve found happiness and I’m glad that there are parents who love and support their children from the start. 😊

    So, my wife and I have lived as a married couple since 1997 and raised three children together 2 blocks from my parents. Her mother lived in our house for awhile and now we live in her mother's place. What we've practiced with our families is consent to know. Both my parents and her mother chose not to know. We live honestly and openly as a married couple. We just don't talk about it and her mother treats me like her daughter. My parents have passed but I did get to answer a question from my dad that she treats me way better than my ex ever thought of and it was the end of it. They treated her like theirs as well. Sometimes actions can be coming out and say way more about your relationship with less friction. A tip from an old fart lesbian. 😊🎉❤

    I loved this. Though those moments when the person coming out starts crying always get me. It's so hard coming out and with the stress of not knowing the other person's reaction (especially if it's someone really close) that all those emotions just come out in the end (no pun intended). And when we went through that in the past it's impossible not to feel something.

    I was 15 when I came out to my mom using the Coming Out by Ally Hills. I told her earlier that day that I wanted to talk to her. Then panic me decided I hope she forgot about it, she did not. I put the song on with headphones, gave her my phone and sat in the living room. About four minutes, she came in there gave me a hug told me she loved me. I came out to my younger brothers (9, 10 and 14) who were like cool. My first youngest brother is only a year younger than me and everyone was scared of him in school so when people started badmouthing me, he put a end to it real quick into it.
    My mom also injected me with be kind to everyone. I agree 100% HELP PEOPLE!!! Help them cross the street, unload groceries into cars, open doors, hold doors and just be KIND!!

    When I was in middle school (and high school for that matter) nobody was bi (at least in any way that they would admit to.) Bravo to the younger generations for getting there sooner that mine did... makes me think maybe some of us are on the right track after all... LOVE is LOVE!

    I'm currently in middle school and I openly came out as lesbian to my friends (since it is pretty normal and open topic in my school) and they were very supportive. I also came out to my sister who is in high school, and my dad. they were both really supportive and my dad said to keep my mind open until i'm 16 because then I will probably know for sure what my sexuality is. I recently came out to my mom and she basically said it's just a phase and keeps trying to convince me that. It really hit me hard when you guys said that if someone doesn't accept their child, they aren't worthy of having a kid. That was so true. Watching the videos that the 2 of you make, makes me really happy because they really help me remember that it is fine to be who you are and there will be people who love you no matter what. Thank you two so much for helping me on my journey to discover my sexuality! (P.S. I have identified as lesbian for 2 years so I am extremely positive that I will grow up to still be a lesbian...also, i have a crush on my best friend of 2 years and i have confessed to her many times already and we are still best friends lol)😁 Thank you two so much, again!! ❤❤Keep spreading the positivity and love!!!!

    Kendra: I've never met someone who said coming out is easy.
    Me: Yeah, because we've never met.
    When I tell you it was easy to come out to my mom, I mean it was VERY easy. Beginning of 6th grade, I liked this "straight" girl. She comes out to me as bi, and tells me that she likes me. I ask her to be my girlfriend, and she says yes. We went home from school that day and told our moms. My mom was like, "I already knew this." Her mom was just like, "Well, are you happy?" My (now ex) girlfriend nodded so hard I'm surprised her head's still attached. Her little sister called their VERY religious aunt and was like, "[insert name] has a girlfriend" and their mother immediately snapped. Said sister was grounded for 7 months, no phone, no tv, no going anywhere or having friends over, no snacks, no Switch, and double chores. Her mom's a real one for that.

    When I came out as trans mtf at the age of 47, 10yrs ago my parents were fine a little shocked as I hid it well but they have been so supportive of me being me. Of my siblings my 3 half brothers were fine but my brother had a bit more of a difficult time getting his head around it he accepted it but just needed time to adjust to the big brother who looked after him growing up was now his big sister but we all get on really well now. The ones who turned their back on me were 2 of my 3 sons they disowned me and have stopped me seeing my grandchildren as a result of it but I know that if I hadn't transitioned I'd be not here for them if they ever decide to find me and see me when they are older ❤

It does not bear well if any of those grandchildren ever need to come out. We live in a world then still generates intolerance of many things. We should just let people be who they are unless who they are brings harm to others.

    I remember when my daughter came out to my wife and I. She was scared because of the rejection videos she saw on UA-cam, and other platforms. When she did we were like, "and? ,,,", with her expecting rejection or something. My reaction was as long as you stay within the species, we love you.. Stray outside, it.. gets weird. She received an anti-climactic response. You love who you love and it's also none of the parents business other than support and love.

    My mom asked me what I would say/do if my son said he was gay. I told her I’d ask him two questions: are you happy? are you safe? My last relationship was with a woman and in the two years we were together, majority of the time I was unhappy and not safe so in my opinion, if you’re in a relationship: straight or not, happiness and feeling safe is vital. There are far too many abusive relationships out there that you can’t pin point WHO and WHAT kind of relationship will be right for you until you live it. I just want my son to be happy, safe and healthy. If his partner makes him feel anything but I hope he finds it in his heart and goes to someone he trusts for help to get out of that situation. Life is too short to settle for less than what you deserve. 💛
