School_LockersSO here it is. When i was like 15, i was playing an intense game of strip truth or dare. there was this hotty across the circle named aaron, at the time he was just a guy but when they dared me to make out with him, i knew he was more than just a hotty. That kiss with him was the most memorable moment of my life, like the minute our lips touched i knew, aaron was the one to make me face the truth. I went back home like “shhhhh! dont tell” but the next time i saw him, it was on. We fooled around for a hot minute, it was great. Aaron made me feel what no girl could. He made me want more! At this point very few people knew. My best friend and a few others were all who knew untillll…….ABE! when i started messing around with abe it was great, he showed me everything aaron never did. Abe was the shit in my eyes. He rocked my world harder than ever before. Abe and I went on for a few weeks but i grew tired. I mean hell, im new at the gay thing and i want to play. That was the point when i met Chase and Alex. Chase was a college student who i would spend late nights talking to, alex was my neighbor i would sneak over and have a good time with. Nobody knew until abe found out. Abe found out i didn’t want to be with him any more and the shit hit the fans. Rumors spread, my sister battled the rumors as long as possible. Once it got too much my sister confronted me and alex. At the time i loved everything about alex but i was still seeing chase on the side. My sister pulled me and alex aside and confronted both of us, i told her the truth. I told my sister that i was gay and i had been seeing alex. I also asked her not to tell ANYONE. She kept it a secret, day in and day out. One day me and amy got into a fight and she told my parents i had been sleeping with alex. My mom was OUTRAGED! She went off, quoting the bible and telling me i was a sinner. At this time my dad was still at work so he knew nothing that was going on. I turned to my oldest sister, she would understand. She came to my rescue. As a SHEro in my life janet came and got me. She told my mom there was nothing wrong with me being gay and she needed to get over herself. I stayed with janet for a few days when i got the phone call. I was sitting on the couch with alex at my oldest sister’s house when my dad called. My dad called to tell me that no matter who i was, i was still his baby boy and he loved me no matter what. Hearing this, my mom had a reality check, Later that day, she too called me. They wanted me to come home. So my parents knew, now it was time to face everyone else, At school the next day alex and i went full force into the sea of peers. We admitted we were together, he even went to the extreme of kissing me in the hallway, RIGHT IN FRONT OF EVERYONE ELSE! That was new to me, everyone watching as another man kissed me in the hallway. Alex and I were the talk of the school, we even went to prom in matching tuxes. We were the talk of the school and everyone loved us. We lasted 3 1/2 years. To this day we are still good friends but one thing i learned is that it’s ok to be who you are. Say it loud, say it proud! Look them in the eye and tell them, “I’m gay and im proud of it!”

Stewie Griffin

Stewie Griffin: Well, you wanna know what I learned this week? Being a grown-up sucks. Women, Brian, what a royal pain in the ass. It’s like, it’s like why can’t you just hang out with guys, you know, just live with someone of your own sex, just do what you do with women, but with your buddy. You know wha, why don’t guys just do that?
Brian Griffin: They do. It’s called being gay.
Stewie Griffin: Oh, is that what gay is? Oh, yeah. I could totally get into that.

And now its officially out! According to TVSquad, Family Guy creator, Seth McFarlane, reveals to the errr… readers… of Playboy magazine that perpetually-one-year-old Stewie Griffin, the main cartoon character of the show, is gay. This reminds me of the post-HP reveal of Dumbledore’s deepest darkest secrets being revealed outside of canon. Fabulous, truly, but not headspinning.

Overwhelming relief

DOitI ‘came out’ as a bisexual a little over two years ago. I had known that I couldn’t keep it a secret much longer and that my friends deserved to know the true. I was so scared, I started shaking when I told my closest friend. She was just dropping me off for work when I decided to almost spring it on her. There was this moment of complete silence. Then she looked at me, with the most loving face i’ve ever seen she said ‘I know, and I love you no matter what’. I couldn’t believe it. I was in aww, I made her come in with me and we talked for about an hour. I was so happy that I cried for hours. I am by far the most unemotional person, and I could not stop myself. I then called another friend and told her and she laughed at me and said ‘it’s about time!’. I am truley blessed by whatever forces there are to have friends as good as mine. It was the most emotionally draining and freeing experience of my life. My advice to anyone looking to ‘come out’ themselves, is DO IT. No matter the outcome, it is better to be yourself than to live the life of another. You won’t regret living YOUR life.
