acceptance
why are parents never accepting to you sexuality unless you are straight?I still haven't told them that I am bisexual, and I'm 18! I am afraid the will think of me as a discrace to the family. I don't know what to do, can I get some advise please?
anyway it will be a shock to parents and honestly they may disown you forever once you tell them....i know of cases where that has happened....but whatever happens you cant change what you are and if they cant accept you youll still have to carry on with life.
I don't "get" being anything but straight, but I also feel that somebody else's sexual orientation is their own business; i.e., what goes on between consenting adults is a matter of personal choice. The public health issues brought about by the huge proliferation of STDs is of course, a large concern, but honestly, as much of that occurs as a result of straight sex as it does from any other kind of sex. So again, as long as the parties are being responsible, I say one's sex life is one's own business. And frankly, unless you're afraid your parents will somehow find out about your lifestyle, I really don't understand the need to discuss it with them in the first place.
