I'm in the closet and my family is homophobic

My name is James. I'm 17 years old, and living with my parents and two brothers. I'm bisexual. I've known since I was 15 and kissed a guy at a debate tournament. I've come out to all of my closest friends, and I want to come out to my family.
I have a problem. My parents and brothers are extremely homophobic. My brothers constantly make comments on how wrong they think being gay (or bi for that matter) is, saying things like, "I just don't understand how anyone could want something like that," or, "A man taking a cock up the ass is just one of the most fucked up things I can imagine."
My dad is pretty much the same as my brothers, but much less vocal.
My mom protested when gay marriage was legalized, but I think she has suspicions I might not be straight. She's told me away from the rest of the family that she would be very disappointed, but would still love me if I came out as gay while we were talking about a close friend of mine that had.
I've known I'm bi for 2 years, and I can't stand hiding it. I don't know what I should do. Please help with any suggestions, stories, or something.

 

Don't pretend you are what your not! Eventually they will learn to live with it, or not, but that's their problem.
Lots of men think admitting that it's ok for men to be gay, is not manly, so don't take to heart a lot of what they say.
You are who you are.. be "straight" about it.

Be happy with who you are, don't worry.

One day you will be out there on your own, get ready, it's your life!

 

I'm bi and out of the closet. Being open about it was very liberating. Like morrow says, be happy with yourself.

 

I agree with "KathyL" that you must first consider your personal safety since you are still living under your parents roof. I know it's difficult to hide your true feelings but it sounds like you're in an environment where if you were open and honest you could possibly be physically harmed by your brothers. I'd keep it to myself until you're out on your own and make that goal your biggest priority right now. Society is changing on how it feels about peoples personal sexual preferences unlike your family which is still living in a cave.
