Should I come out in High School? ?

Question

Well I've been thinking about it for a while and not a lot of people here get made fun of for being g*y. There's actually a lot of people that are g*y. Do you think it's a good idea?

Answer 1

The ultimate decision is obviously yours.

Take into consideration your ability to deal with adversity.

There are some who still live in the "90's". That's the 1890's.

Some will advise to be who you are. It's good advise.

Decide, and should you "come out" seek comfort from others with your lifestyle.

No...not g*y. Just have some friends who are.  

Answer 2

If you have support from your family then consider it

If this move is going to freak the family, you wont have enough support to get easily through this.  Kids can be pretty cruel.

If you know youre g*y, you can either start identifying with your peers (other g*y kids) now, or hold off till your 18+ and come out as a young adult instead.

g*y is great - have a ball!

Answer 3

GOD you're lucky. at my hs, I would get made fun of daily and no one would talk to me. if you have an accepting high school setting, do that because later on it might be more difficult

Answer 4

No it's not.

Stick with important matters.  Listening to your parents, Your studies, Building character, integrity, citizenship.

Your parents don't need the heartache.

When you make your own way in the world, you can waste your time having s*x with anything you like, until then, focus on more important things in life.

Answer 5

Yea totally. Since your school doesn't sound like a homophobic one. I recogment you do. First, tell your clique, whatever. When you guys or eating lunch or stuff, hanging out. Then be cool with it, let the new spread haha. Yea.. spreads like wild fire and before you know it, your out. Take care. Have a fun outing experience. Good luck!

Answer 6

ask yourself do you want to come out, not should you.

some people will make harsh comments, but hopefully people will accept it. maybe ask your friends there views on lesbians and g**s to find out what their opinion is. its all up to you though and at the end of it, don't worry what others think about you. if they don't like it thats there problem.

Answer 7

Most high school students don't have the emotional maturity to handle their own sexuality let alone someone else's. And let's face it, a good portion of adults don't either. Why not wait till college?

Answer 8

well.. if you come out it'll feel great! You'll always get made fun of in some kind of way.... I'm not going to tell you if it's a good idea or not. But, just think about the positives and negatives that follow..
