I realize that most of the posters in this forum are young, and probably will never procreate. But hypothetically, if you had a son and on his 18 birthday he told you that he was gay, how would you react internally? I am more asking how you would feel, not what you would say to your son. Would you feel disappointed, confused, indifferent?

I would be bothered. I would also hope that I was understanding.

I'd be cool. Everyone needs to be happy in life and if that is what is going to make him happy, he'd have my full support. I guess this just adds to me being more gay. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

those are some reasons, here are some more potential reasons.
1. Possibly feel like you failed raising your son 2. Less "manly" 3. or simply uncomfortable with homosexuality. Basically this wouldn't be an easy thing for everyone to deal with. Ultimately though, you have to realize he is your son, and nothing changes that, so you still have to love him. It would just be hard getting use to having a gay son, IMO. |

In most places (actually, all), it will make life much tougher for your child. Whether you are a bad parent and shun him, or a good parent and support him, your life will be filled with either repressing feelings or defending yourself against family members and people you thought were your friends.
America still has a long way to go. |
