mildly confused..

recently, I was talking to my father and somehow we got on the topic of gay rights. Being gay myself, I told him I was a strong believer in gay rights. Now, I havent come out to my dad because he is, well, psychotically Christian may be an understatement.. Of course, he is also very accepting of others (or should I say tolerant...) no matter how wrong he thinks they are.

Anyways, back to my story. He started asking why I had started supporting this. I non-chalantly replied with my famous, "I don't know." unfortunately, he was unsatisfied with this answer, and before you knew it, I was backed in a corner, and was going to have to come out. That is until my step-mother chimed in with her infinite knowledge of the conversation: did you hear!? Theyre going to start teaching its okay to be gay, at all the schools. Isn't that terrible!? (no sarcasm.. At all -_-) my dad and I were completely dumbfounded by this satement, and he quickly forgot about the conversation..

My question is, should I be thankful or angry towards my stepmother? I'm a little confused..

 

sounds to me like shes smarter than your giving her credit for


saving your but like that the real queastion is why

 

Be thankful that she knows you're gay and that she knew it was not the time or place to come out.

 

Maybe I'm not giving her credit, I never really thought about that, didnt think she was capable, but she just spent the last 10 weeks silurrounded by gay guys, it actuallymakes sense..

 

edit

 

well, I'm not obvious.. And I gave her WAY too much credit, but that I'll post on the coming out thread.
