What I do remember was that someone had ma T-shirts that said "I LOVE MY GAY DAD" and I refed to wear one. ” The tth, though, is that I lacked the urage to stand all the way up for my father and his ras agast a homophobic and different world.

Growg up wh a gay father, particularly one who was aaid to e out, prented challeng our abily to get emotnally close. From my earlit memori of my Dad around age 5, I thk I always knew my dad was gay.

TOUCHG VIO SHOWS SON E OUT AS GAY TO MORMON DAD

To hear both of them tell , my Dad beg gay wasn’t a factor the spl. After all, he was the son of a Baptist Preacher and there would not have been much tolerance the 1940’s or 50’s for him to e out as gay.

I'M 57 YEARS OLD AND MY FATHER JT DISOWNED ME FOR BEG GAY

In talkg to both of them over the years, they both claim they had no ia my Dad was gay. In retrospect, the fact that he was a cheerlear his bt iend was a male hairdrser (who was openly gay) that my Uncle Buddy nicknamed him “Percy” (which my Dad hated) and that my Dad went on to open a home furnishgs store might have been a clue. Realizg his sexualy and beg a gay father the late 1960s, pecially wh me a long way away, mt have been really transformative for my Dad.

He lived and around the Oak Lawn area of Dallas (long a predomantly gay or at least gay-iendly neighborhood). He was meetg lots of openly gay people & gog to clubs where was OK to be openly gay. My Dad, of urse, was sistent that no one would obvly know he was gay (which also ma Tom and I lgh).

In Loren’s se, he didn’t e to terms wh beg gay until the age of 40 and was married wh children at the time. The one benef to always knowg I had a gay father is that there was never I time I rell thkg was wrong. I first realized my Dad was gay when I was around 7 or 8, and I have no rellectn of him beg wh my Mom.

THREE SGLE, GAY DADS REFLECT ON FATHERHOOD, SURROGACY JOURNEYS

Almost all his iends were gay as were most of his employe (those 2 groups pretty much beg the same people). That beg said, I was probably spared a lot of bullyg at school sce no one there knew I had a gay father. I feel que sure I got lucky this regard and that many kids wh a gay father were picked on for their parent’s sexualy.

AT 60 YEARS OLD, I BEME VISIBLE. GETTG OLD AS A GAY MAN STKS.

I’m proud of the fact that I and their mother have raised our dghters to not qutn or judge my Dad or Tom beg gay. Our girls simply accept them for who they are, jt as they do all their other fay members who happen to not be gay. I always knew he was gay and never had that “my Dad is gay” aha moment of realizg I had a gay father.
