I have a similar background, binen and raised in church, I know the expectations. I am straight, though.
Listen. You will have to be prepared for the first reaction of your parents/family. They most likely will reject you. But in the end they will accept you for who you are. I’ve seen it many times. It may take them years but it will eventually happen. Hang in there. They want to see you happy... because they love you. Show them that you are happy. And be brave. I send you a big big hug.
I'm a Conservative Presbyterian who has come to believe that homosexuality and bisexuality is a Psychiatric or Physiological issue, probably something where some wires are crossed someplace, that God for some reason meant you to have. You can't help it, so make the most of it, so tell your family. Your family might be upset at first but will eventually forgive you. Jesus already has.
I'm a therapist
He good
I was brought up Christian and have NO issue with gays or a being bi. I am 100% straight but think we are all born the way we are so it is no bg deal. Enjoy being who you are and be comfortable with your sexual orientation.
Have you had sex with either gender yet? Do you prefer one over the other for sex?
Good for you real Christian's don't judge
@Wowgirl10q I agree with you WOW. I wish the rest of the U. S. was a bit more compassionate!
@summiter im not one of a kind.
But a very very rare limited addition 🙂 and thank you sir
Definitely a double standard, but you know what? Be yourself. Be who you want to be and love who you want to love. If your parents don't agree, who cares, they don't control you or your life. If your friends diss you, turn your back and find better people.
And this is not just for you, also for whoever reads this message, in whatever situation you find yourself.
The only way to change the double standard is for more men to come out about it. I may be considered disgusting now but in the future if enough men come forward, it will one day be considered normal.
There will always be someone who finds you disgusting, just gotta learn to say f them and move on with your life. No use crying over them :/
If you are a Christian, then you might remember that we are told that we are told thatwe are all made in the image and likeness of God. That must somehow apply to all of us, even bisexuals and gay people. God made you this way, and there must be a reason. Therefore, it is not sinful, but just another facet of the Almighty.
Don't shoot the messenger but it's been proven in biopsych that the biology of a man who finds men attractive have more estrogen in their body than the typical male. Therefore that is why they like guys more. That's why gay guys and bisexuals can have sex with men because they have a little more female hormones and those hormones is what makes females want to have sex with guys. Therefore proving the psychology of gays and bisexuals.
In other words - they are soy boys and need to man the f up.
@DJZest They just need more testosterone in their body. That's the only way they could probably overcome it. You can't just man up, it's hormones in your brain. You can't reverse that mentally. They need to inject themselves with testosterone. That's the only way.
Fake Christians Will Tell You What You Want To Hear.
Real Christians Will Tell You What God's Word Says And Offend Not Only You But Society As You Know It.
Well, people tend to not like when cults try imposing their fucked up doctrines on them. Imagine that...
I never understood people hating the LGBT, it's not like you chose to have feelings for the opposite sex nor is it harming anyone. It's two consenting adults that want to be together why not let them be. I really hope you have the courage to come out and be with your lover. Even if it means cutting ties with family it can start the process of helping you find yourself.
Not our place to judge we are all human
@Wowgirl10q Since we are all human the phrase is meaningless. Judges are human too.
Be yourself and do not care what the haters say
Being bisexual is normal, and most people in the western world have no issues with it
It feels like many people have an issue with it in the United States.
Like around 67% of Americans are fine with same-sex marriage
That number came from the Gallup Poll this year
It's mostly the old religious people who have an issue with it
But they will be dead soon
Haters are his family kinda different
Lol that's his dad you talking bout
Many people are low i. q in the states
@Wowgirl10q Mostly the southern states where Education is at it's lowest and Poverty is at it's highest as a result.
Unfortunately, there is a trend of the South "Rising Again" which is alarming to anyone who hasn't been taking advantage of the south's ignorance.
If your parents use the excuse of their "Christianity" to disapprove, then they're not very Christ-like. Wrapping their tribal custom (a hatred of people different from themselves) in pseudo theology is completely missing the message of Jesus Himself.
Um, no, it isn't. Disapproval isn't necessarily hate. Maybe you should read that little book again; you know, the Bible. We are told to love one another as Christ loves us. We are not told to accept what God hates and make everyone ok with their homosexual feelings. Hate, for us, should have no place in it. God will do the judging, not us.
@Nuuumb You can't have it both ways. If we are going to let God judge, then it is not for us to declare what He "hates", and use that as an excuse to NOT love each other. "How many times must I forgive my brother?" Do you remember what the "little book" says? And even more important, do you recall Matthew 25:41-45? Do you REALLY one to be one of those on his left? "Oh, we hate the sin, even though we don't hate the sinner!" is not enough. You must ACTIVELY support even the stranger, and the prisoner, and the wretched, lest you be one of the goats, and turn from the Lord.
The majority of men are either gay or bisexual with a preference for men, and of course they lie about it and use women for biological children. What else is new?
Yeah cool I think their are plenty of churches in America that don't bother judging people on sexual preference, they probably have huge congregations too, because most people these days can't really be pigeon wholed anymore.
I couldn't give a flying fuck but remind me when Jesus told Mankind Man should leave his parents and stick to another man to adopt black babies. You are only deluding yourself. Christian dogma does not tolerate homosexuality, period. Be a Wiccan if you want to be gay but don't mock the name of the Lord by saying he loves your behavior. He doesn't. He said so in the Bible.
Growing up in the church and being a PK does not make you a Christian. It's not like it's hereditary.
"No one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.” (John 1:3-)
"Do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do." (1 Peter 1:14, 15)
Look, most Christians (or at least Christians like me and the ones i know) won't care about whether you find men attractive or not. The ones you hear about that are homophobic are a vast minority, or at least where i live they are. I think the only sort of problem would be marriage with another man, because in the religion marriage is a Holy Sacrament and is of equal importance to Baptism or Communion, so if two guys got married it is kinda insulting to the Church in that aspect.
Thow shell not judge
@Wowgirl10q?
I am bisexual, but not religious
Tell your family and be happy. No need to hide it
I don't approve of this thread or the picture it upsets me
Okay. You have a right to believe what you want to believe.
But guys kissing is hot

Why I Never Intend to Come Out as Bisexual ↗
Im also a bisexual in the closet to from a similar background , I wrote a mytake on it a while back, maybe it will help. 😊
I think the best thing to do is to come out to your family. Honesty is usually the best option, and with time they may come to accept it.
They may also disown me and ostracize me.
I'm so sorry you have to go through this. I faced a similar problem when I came out to my family. If you think that telling them will put you in physical danger then please do not do it. But I still stand by my choice to tell them even if now they think differently of me.
You should just keep it to yourself and focus more time on being interested in women. Its only going to make your life worse if you don't. Sure it will feel better for you to indulge in hedonism but in the long term you will regret it. Dont you want to marry a good christian woman? Being actively involved in gay culture and sex will remove that possibility. God clearly states it is a sin. Everyone sins but to clearly and willfully live in sin is not the same thing.
Keep something to urself and avoid ur own feelings? Sure that sounds healthy..
Who knows who he will Mary. It can be either... And God. From a spiritual person (grew up baptist) I love how people use this against others. As a scare tactic. Plenty of other things that are sins and yet everyone does them
Plenty of things MAN says are sins... Man!
@Nate85 there is a difference between a sin and living in sin. A single dumb action is a sin, this can be remedied. A constant willful and planned ongoing sin must be stopped before it can be forgiven.
Remedied.. i just can't. Take care and hope ur views open up some.
