MY SON IS GAY

I’ve always been open wh my kids, tght them not to be judgmental and to accept anyone. Sexualy has never been a problem, I have gay and bisexual... * mumsnet son gay *

I have plenty of gay and lbian iends and is certaly no big al however I am upset as I was not expectg this and his future as I expected has gone. I won't be a grandma ( he is an only child) I worry about him anyway but more so if he's gay due to the news we hear alot about homophobic asslts etc. I answer as a gay man who knew he was gay at an early age.

I don't know where you live, but when I was much younger I went to a gay youth group that had an upper age range of 25. I have no problem wh eher of my sons beg gay, my DH has admted to experimentg wh guys the past, but is dishearteng to thk that he n't tell me or his father. Sexualy has never been a problem, I have gay and bisexual iends.

SON IS GAY

Whether your son is gay, straight or anywhere between, beg sneered at by a parent for beg cur about life, or for playactg, is very damagg.

I have two gay DDs so have been there.

WOULD YOU/ DID YOU KNOW YOUR SON WAS GAY OM AN EARLY AGE?

Well, my son sort of me out durg his sister's 18th dner (jt fay) and then keeps sayg he isn't gay he is bisexual.

GAY SON

And he spends a lot of time on GYUK which is a perfectly nice fom for young gay teens.

15YO SON E OUT AS GAY

I thk a real problem today is that the fluid nature of human sexualy has been set stone so you have to characterise yourself some way and intify yourself as gay, straight, bi-cur, transexual, whatever. Tom Robson (Sg if you're glad to be gay) is now married wh children for stance.

And he never wash unls forced bathroomwards, and I said to him the other day, I thought the advantage of a gay son was they were clean? If gay is what he is, then I will enurage him to unrstand that we aim at the ial of permanent relatnships whatever our sexualy, and that is now fed by legal partnership, which is great news.

I THK MY SON IS GAY. HE IS ANX

Today, him & his brother (8) were jt jokg about, wdg eachother up…as brothers do & my youngt said somethg along the l of ‘you’d fancy him though’ & my olst replied wh ‘so what if I do’ so this quickly spiralled to the ‘mum he’s gay’ bla bla bla…. So I replied wh ‘thank you for tstg me wh this & aslong as your happy I’m happy’ but his brother kept gog on & on ‘I n’t believe your gay’ & lghg etc, jt beg a b of a tw about to be hont.
