Firstly, I am no Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual or etc.
So I am not first handedly giving you advice.

But, I can imagine from what I observe and feel.

You should first accept it, and embrace it.
Do not try to deny it and try to change it, you are who you are. Embrace your characteristics, not try to destroy them.
Secondly, build up self confidence and be happy with yourself. Not vital, but it definetly helps I would imagine.
When you want to tell, tell people who you want to know, close friends and family. People over fret and tend to keep hiding it. You cannot control or change it. So live and love it. You must understand it isn't some kind of choice. You're born this way.

Don't over fret what others think. Everybody will be insulted and such. But do not pay heed to it. The only opinions that matter in the end are those of loved ones. Not people who merely want to put you down, and I doubt loved ones want to do that.

Just trying to say, love it and yourself.

Good post.

Might also be a good idea to include something along the lines of there being no specific way or time to come out, and that they should do it in their own time. Pressure often makes the situation worse.

Not worth pinning.
There are many threads like this. It's just the exact same stuff being repeated over and over again.
Why should his topic be any more important than anyone elses?

It is worth pinning.
But I think a lot more should be added to it.

If there are many threads like this, that means people are just wasting their time over and over again to write the same thing.
So if you pin it, people will see that it's already been made, and they won't make another one. Which stops the repetition.

Well why didn't you pin another thread on the exact same topic made by another member then?
What took you so long?
It does need a lot more info.
He should have brought it upon himself to do this sooner as he was mod for this section.
He saw other threads like this one, why didn't he pin them?

Maybe because he didn't think about it?
It is possible that the idea just popped into their head.
And maybe at first there weren't as many coming out threads, but now since there are a lot asking how, we notice that we should pin one to avoid them.
Why is this a big issue? Why do you care if it's pinned or not?

I never saw any to be honest. I only really visited this thread for the pins.
But no mine is not perfect. But this forum does get flooded with wanting help.

And look what happened with telling your sexuality. After mine got pinned, the threads ceased. It's been done before, yes. But I haven't seen any recently so thus fourth making another would be helpful to newer people who need some tips and what not.

Wasn't talking to you, Erin.

@jess
I'll do it tomorrow, I can't link you as I'm on my iPod.
I don't have a problem I was just telling you that I thought it wasn't worth pinning.

Yes but I was referring to a mod not discussing it with everyone else. Only to Jess.


I'll link you tomorrow.
As I said, I was only stating my opinion.
I just don't think this was a very detailed thread and you never know, someone else could write it better so it isn't fair pinning a thread that could be improved.

That's simple forum modding 101 stuff.

I don't consider you a mod so I'm not going to acknowledge you as one.
Stop replying to me.



Then do that.
I'll link you to some more info tomorrow and then you can add it on.
Then I shall be happy about it being pinned.
If I wouldn't have said anything this thread might of gotten pinned just as it is.

Lol.
Well I am a mod whether you like it or not. You can ignore it all you want, but I am still a mod.

I think we should do more than just merge. I mean, I know some videos and stuff. And sites that can help. So we should add in more info other than what's in just the threads.

Somebody is pissy because a STRAIGHT guy got Sub-Mod of the G & S and makes more helpful topics than people in the GLBT community do?

Why? Stop replying to my thread then.
