    Our fursonas have things that WE want. Yours has sunshine, rainbows, flowers, bright colors and love. Things you may not have had growing up.
    Our parents are humans too, they are not perfect and they make mistakes.
    Thank you, for being you, Fluke. Give Tirox a hug.

    That was a touching story, I’m sorry your parents aren’t supportive of you, you have my full support fluke. I’m bisexual, male. I never expressed any type of “homosexual” behaviour as as a teen in secondary school as I feared of being a vulnerable target for others to laugh and bully.
    In my second year of college at the age of 18 I knew I liked males and females but wasn’t aware of bisexuality so I was so confused until I met a group of females who were predominantly bisexual with some guys which they explained what it was that made total sense to me. That year was also a very difficult year for me as a childhood friend of mine took his life which sent me down a dark path of depression and anxiety which can be difficult still to this day and had suicidal thoughts myself for which I reached out for help and received counciling.
    My family is non religious, straight and don’t really understand anything that has anything to do with LGBT ect.
    So typically I was very anxious and nervous to come out to my family and scared for if they would think of me differently if I told them I was bisexual. So firstly I told my sister who was ok about it and didn’t see any issue, I wanted to tell my other sister but she was already told before I got the opportunity to tell her. And my parents were not exactly that fond of it when I told them at first but they quickly came to terms with it and respected me for who I am for now I am immensely grateful for.
    Unfortunately I still have to deal with trolls and people who bash their bible at me and come out with their religious bigotry that is incredibly annoying which can also hurt also but I guess I gotta tolerate it.
    I appreciate your story, ik it can be a difficult and sensitive subject to talk about but for anyone who’s suffering or their family disown them for who they are just want to let you know your validated and strong.
    Love will win

      I'm Straight, Catholic, a Furry and a Ally. I can understand the pain of Bigotry and hypocrisy as I have been bashed with the Bible on how "Homosexuality is a dangerous lifestyle." But even though it pains me deeply, I find the strength through God and all my LGBT friends to persevere and keep on the right path of a believer and an ally. The road that is the hardest to take, takes a strong will and convection to cross, and the road that is easiest to take, hardly requires any effort. I'd rather take the hard road as I love putting effort into my life.

    This is how I came out as Asexual/Aromantic to my kin:
    When I was a very little kid, like 3-5 I learned that women like men and men like women. You know, like they should. And I followed that but I never fully understood the attraction between these two genders. But yet, I still “pretended” to have crushes so I would fit in with my friends. Comes the age of 9-10. I learned more and more about the LGBTQ+ community. And oh boy, did I find it interesting. I learned about being Asexual; not being sexually attracted to any gender, and being aromantic; not being romantically attracted to any gender. I realized that that was who I am. So I started off with telling my friends. Turns out (btw, this was at a new school), my two friends were Lesbian and Pansexual. I felt so accepted. So then I told my brothers (who obviously didn’t care at their age). And then my grandma, who was totally accepting. I finally mustered up the courage to tell my mother through text. And she was miraculously accepting. I felt good. Things were smooth. And my mother told my father. He didn’t seem like he hated me, yet I think he still thought I should be accepted. I’m still not sure how he thinks of me, yet he doesn’t seem mad. Before you ask, no, no one else in my closest kin is LGBTQ+
    Maybe you could share your story.

    Kind of a different perspective here: I'm actually a straight, married, deeply devoted Christian Male. I'm also a young father of 3. Coming from a dads point of view: I couldn't imagine not seeing my kids, loving them or even cutting them out of my life.
    Fluke it honestly breaks my heart to its very core your father doesn't support you. I understand where he's coming from as well though. Maybe in time, he will come around. Just keep moving forward!
    I've already decided should my kids come out to me, I will have an open heart to them and wish them happiness. God loves them and you too Fluke, as well as I.
    Your always a blast to watch! 😁
    Lots of love to you and Tirox! ❤❤❤ God Bless!

    Those who struggle have the most important stories to share. You went through a transformation from a Christian traditionalist to a proud, gay furry with some seriously entertaining hobbies, and that's very inspiring for those who might be struggling in an echo chamber of the former. You dealt with the pain of not being accepted, and you made a decision that really helped you to be who you are and enjoy your life. and it's true that these things take time. You're more of a role model than you think! Maybe not to all, but to those with similar walks of life who need it to inspire them to keep going, and that's what it really means to be a role model.

    I’ve been raised in a Christian family all of my life and when I told them I was gay I was told that I was “confused” and needed to get my feelings right with God. I’ve told my brother, who is the most trustworthy person I know. However, he’s a bit younger than me and I’m not sure if he even remembers that I told him. I wish that I could just move away and be free but I can’t drive due to my visual impairment. At this point I’m just waiting for a guy that doesn’t mind my disability who I can go live with and finally be happy.

      Zane the Wolf, Take your time. If you don’t feel safe coming out, then please do make sure that you can find somewhere safe to be yourself irl. Testing the waters always helps, if they have a negative reaction towards general lgbt, it’s probably best if you don’t. Coming out is hard. I was fortunate enough to have all my family members be accepting and loving. But that didn’t make it any less difficult for me. In some cases they may already suspect you, in others, you may be flipping their whole perspective of you upside-down. Giving people time to adjust after you’ve told them is just as important. I don’t know you or your situation, but if or when you decide to come out, I hope it goes well. Either way, you’ve got at least one person who believes in you.
      TLDR; Patients for choosing the time you come out, and patients for after you come out with the people you choose to tell is very important. You got this, I believe in you, hope everything works out. I’d give you a supportive hug rn if I could. Best of luck!

    Fluke I can't help but notice how my story is literally the exact same, (Hardcore christian parents, Super trustworthy sister, both your dad and mine used to work in the air force, and I haven't told anyone yet, but I know my parents' and what my sister's reaction is going to be, which my sister is going to be chill and my parents are going to be hella pissed and it's gonna hurt me as much as it hurts them when I come out to them or if my sister told them. Thank you for making this video, now I can ease a little more into coming out since I have been full of anxiety and depression from it. Thank you Thank you Thank you.

    Even as a straight bunny, I love the tolerance that the Fandom gives to the LGBT community. In the land of my birth and childhood, Romania, the LGBT people isn't pretty well accepted. Homosexuality wasn't even legal before 2001 in this country. There is so much pressure not only from the Romanian Orthodox Church, but also from local corrupt politicians to block the recognition of LGBT couples. I am still living in Romania, but in August I will emigrate to Germany. I wanted to emigrate quick, but because of the Coronavirus I postponed the emigration on August. Romania is part of Eastern Europe, which is the European equivalent of the Southern States. Very touching video. I ♥️ this.

      hey! i am also romanian! but one of the worst parts about our country is that gay marriege is now illegal, and trans people can't even get the healthcare they need (from what i heard). i may be a 12 year old but atleast i know what love is, and that it has no labels. I ,myself, am a pansexual, and even tho my mother supports the lgbt+ community, i have a feeling that if i tell her now she would just respond with "you are to young to be pansexual (or gay/trans/lebian/bisexual etc.)". i literally want to emigrate to another country like canada. But it's just horible to see such dense people in our country! I mean, they think it's an ilness if you are gay/trans, kids cant even make themselfs heard without getting shouted at becouse of their "stupid oppinions", if you are different than other people, you are considered weird, and when a woman(or any other person) gets assaulted, people dont care. also, from what i heard, its legal that children can get r*ped by pedophiles, or married with a man WAY older than them, if they get the parents consent. i am so happy that i have a normal familly, but this country really is f*ed up.
      Edit: corrected some small mistakes i made

  • @VGMimix
    @VGMimix 4 роки тому +8

    Coming out has been a process for me too, Fluke, I remember wanting the children with the wife and all that other things. Its been a very tough journey for me. Growing up conservative, Christian, its hard because I know how my parents feel about this, and they felt like they did something wrong, but they didn't really do anything, and that I'm changing things. And I don't really like how I'm changing things or changing their lives simply because of it.
    Parents are not just one to, "get with the program", it just doesn't work that way. It takes time, compassion and understanding. Empathy. Its a very tough thing. I still struggle with internalized homophobia wrapped around in my head, like for instance, I don't really have the pride flag in my life, because, it just doesn't speak to me as much as it may speak to other people. I can only hope that things get better from here.

    Hi Fluke, I'm sorry to tell you this, but I completely disagree with you.
    At the beginning of the video you say that you don't see yourself as someone of reference, and I think you can't be more wrong.
    With this video I can only tell you that you are the best role model, since even and not being accepted by your parents, you decided to be brave and move on. Not giving up on what you liked, and I think that is something that we should all learn, to be ourselves despite the difficulties on our way.

I’m definitely gonna wait until I’m living on my own to tell them cause I’m scared they’ll kick me out and I’ll have no place to live.

      That’s the sad reality of it in most families. Im straight. Im in a relationship. (My gf is a furry even though im not. But i dont care that she is. That’s besides the point) im 100% in support of the lgbt community because they are a part of this world whether religious assholes like it or not. Im from a catholic family. We have a few relatives that came out. But there’s still that fear that some relatives use religion to cause harm to them. That’s beyond fucked up and only justifies my atheist stance. All i can say to you is to stay true to yourself and if you ever need anyone to help you get through anything, i got you ✊🏼

    A few weeks back, I asked my mother if she would accept me if i were to ever become gay or something (Im bi at the moment but have not told her or anyone) What she said warmed my heart, no matter who I am or what I do, she would accept. She said that my father may have a few issues but surely he will be okay with it. Like you, I was raised in a Christian / Lutheran household tho not as strict, I was scared for a while. With being a furry too, I felt the same way until a year ago when my mother actually approves of me and likes the artwork I have produced. My father, still the same. He thinks that its a tad childish but tolerates it.

It hurt, because my parents didn't support me, and still don't. I'm currently 14, so I can't move out yet, and they treat me worse than my sisters, just because of my beliefs. They've admitted to it.

    I think this 4-year old video found me at the exact time it should have. I think, that I just might, MIGHT, be bisexual. I think this vid gives me a bit of a comforting feeling knowing that I'm not the only one in this kind of situation.
    Even though you probably won't see this comment, thank you Fluke, I appreciate your honesty on YT.

      Even though I don’t really follow any religion I’ve been told that god forgives anyone so if you tell her that maybe she’ll learn to accept and forgive you. Anyway good luck

      The one and only passage that is anti-lgbt in the bible is debunked. The part where it says man shall not lay with man had a word in it that could either pass for man or boy in the original language. It was mistranslated but it was intended to say man shall not lay with boy, to be against pedophilia, not homosexual.

    "I'm not bi or gay, But my twin sister is. She's also the person that introduced me to the furry fandom and inspired me to make a fursuit of my own! just finished by the way! So I'm in full support of you and any other's like yourself. Like I said, I'm not bi or gay, but I have autism and adhd, and my friends don't know and I'm not sure how to tell them. Any suggestions?

    Fluke. Your amazing. For people of all kinds I would say that the things you do help other people. If you can stand in front of people and talk about personal stuff in you life. That’s amazing. To the videos you make and the people that hate, you are a true man. I mean even admitting that you like guys in front of your parent and for them not being proud of you. It takes hart to say stuff like that, and for you to get back up and keep liven life, you are a awesome person. And I thank you for helping me too with life.

    You are far from alone. It’s sad that people expect others to act a certain way and they make a big deal out of something as personal as your sexuality or believes.
