Today, I came out to my parents. My mom and dad think that I'm lying, just so I could "fit in" with everyone else. FML

As someone whose mom reacted with "it's just a phase" when they came out as bi in middle school, i feel you. Though now I'm 25, pan and my mom has seen that it's who i am even though I've never brought a girl home to her. She laughs at my gay jokes now, and one day i hope you can do that with your parents one day. Good luck

Well, this is kind of ironic. Gay in the 1980s - can't come out to parents for fear of ostrization. Gay in the 2010s - can't come out to parents for fear of being seen as only wanting to be popular. I feel like this was not the direction things were supposed to go.

Why the hell would you want to fit in with other people? You're a person, not a sheep.
