A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hey, I'm bisexual and I dont know how to tell my parents. There's a part of me telling me not to tell them in case they don't agree with that type of thing. As far as I know most of my family are homophobics so I think if I told my parents, eventually the rest of my family will find out some how.

Please give me sme advice o what to do. It would be appreciated

Thanks

I think you will need to tell them some day, but you might wait until you are in a serious relationship that you need for them to accept. The concrete nature of the relationship will make it harder for them to pretend it isn't real.

Laura1318 agony auntThere is no need to announce to the whole world or tell your parents that you are bisexual.

Just keep it to yourself. It does not give you any added advantage but will only invite ridicule and scorn.

Dr.LanceMerryweather agony auntWhy would you feel the need to tell them? If you had sexual feelings for a boy, would you feel the need to tell them that? Give it a year or two 'til you properly sort your true feelings out. Then, if you still feel the same, just lead your life your way and let the family slowly but surely draw their own conclusions. Your life - your decision, and good luck with it!
