ok junior prom is this year and me being gay has me wondering. me and this guy have been getting close n such and lets say we get together or somethign and then prom. my parents dont know about me cause i tried talking to them and they were like DISHONOR TO YOUR RACE thing and yeah i dont want to try again, but if i do go, should i just go? i do go to a public school and im "out" now but i don't know if it would be the best idea. ohh and im not sure if this should be here but it fit in my heat =)

Yah go, its good to represent yourself. If people hates u for tht, then kick their booty.

I think you should go. I'm sorry your parents are so close minded about your situation. They really should be more supportive. If you really want to go to prom with this guy in your heart of hearts, I think you should. It's better to regret something you did, then regret something you didn't do.

^ I agree. If you go, how will they know you went with your guy?

^ i agree :)
once you get to the prom, your parents will have no idea what you do and who with.

well there is a recent addition...i was talking to my mom to see if i was even allowed and she was like NO! after about 30 minutes of arguing she gave up and was like...fine ill chaperone then -_-

Forget what other people think and just do whatever you want.

chaperoning, eh? ah, such an inconvience. hmm ..well, try reverse phychology, i think that's what it is you can try reasoning with them, ask them if what they really want is for you to live your life a lie, rather than being who you really are. and if you can't go to the junior prom, there's always the senior prom they may accept your sexuality by then ..
edit // i just realized that this junior prom your gonna go to is actually quite long time from now .. give them a while and try to get them used to this whole thing. they're gonna have to learn to accept it at some point ..

well i mean i brought up the subjects many time but they just keep saying the same thing...my parents are they type of parents who say they wont care but then they flip out and x.x like they loved one of my friends but found out that his parents were divorced and his mom was a les and im still not allowed to hang out with him...i still do but this was like 3 years ago and they are still like this and argh...-_- such a headache

i shall comment again seeing as how you seem to be in a tight situation ..haha tight ..sorry anywayss ..well ..ah, since they seem to be so stubborn. wow, 3 years, huh? this sure is a toughie ..before i go on, --off topic: i think gay guys are hot, what girl doesn't? i'm a hugeee yaoi anime fan -- back on topic -- ok, how about this. look for a far away college where they can't bother you and then go there when college time comes rollling around the corner. that's all i've got to say. if they can't handle your sexuality, then they're not fit to be your parents.

dont be ashamed of who you are. stand up for all the gay people out there! f**k BUSH. GAY PEOPLE ARE SO AWESOME.

Well, at least you get to go now!
Maybe try talking to your parents again but tell your side of the story first and if they start to get mad, just make sure you get your message across. They have to know how you feel and accept you for who you are. It's their choice if they want to listen to you or not, but at least they know how you feel

like everyone else said, go for it!...and hopefully your parents will never find out =] if you're already out at school then it shouldn't be too difficult for you, but if anyone tries to ruin your night, don't let them get to you! ...if so, keep the violence to a minimum please. if your parents really cared about you, they'll learn to accept you for who you are. i respect you for trying to talk to your parents about this. good luck!

well this one time my friend thought he was being funny and sent me gay porno (go figure eh?) and then my mom was snooping and she was like WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU? she told my dad and they were planning to send me to counceling and they wree like WE ARE GOING TO TELL EVERY EFFING ONE YOU KNOW so yeah -_- i refsue to tell them...well until i go to college at least =)

i feel the need to comment more yes, college is the only thing that will allow you to escape from your parents ..only for a few years that is but then again, you can't spend your whole life running away from them because when you do get a bf, i think you'd actually want them to know, instead of hiding it from your parents. it doesn't feel that great to have to hide someone you care a lot about from the two people who i'm assuming you also care a lot about too. there will come a time, when you're gonna have to face the music and when that time comes, those parents are gonna learn a lesson or two about learning to accept all of this. i just completely despise stubborn people. maybe cause i am one myself.

What you should do depends on what school you go to. Is it Catholic?

pubic
i meant to say public -_-
