I got caught watching ''Call me by your name'' when it came out in 2017. My parents knew the context of the movie, cuz my moms best friend is a really proud lesbian. My bisexual ass was accepted from both my parents when I explained them. I introduced them to my boyfriend 3 months ago and they were really happy and proud for me. Love em.🌈
My coming out story: First time I tried to come out I put some clothes in the order of a rainbow and said, “Surprise!” But my mum didn’t get what I was doing it. Second time, my mum started a conversation about it and I just brought it up. She laughed at first but is supportive 😊🏳️🌈
@@twiceaddictt461 i’m also a PROUD, PROUD Muslim!! i personally believe that it’s halal labelling yourself gay and liking someone of the same gender but it’s only haram when you act upon it, like do inappropriate stuff.. so here me out, please don’t be ashamed for being gay and Muslim .know that you are valid for who you are and remember that we can’t control who are we attracted to ,you know.. so stay true to yourself ,Salam
My Coming Out Story - Mum So after 2 years of realising that I’m lesbian, I knew it was time to come out to my Mum. I was sacred though because I thought she would think I’m too young or something stupid like that. But one day I felt a boost of adrenaline and I went for it. The words just slipped out of my mouth, “Mum I have something to tell you” Mum: yeah? Me: I’m a lesbian She was very supportive and she gave me a big hug as I cried in her arms. She told me how much she loves me and will accept me no matter what.
Hello Leah and Caitlin , I heard you were replying to comments , I would really love for you to see this , I have followed you on tik tok for a long time , I wish a was as productive as your days look 😂 , I just wanted you guys to know that I really appreciate your tiktok videos and they make me happy 😊 thank you -maisy
8:48 Omg this was exactly my experience Caitlin!! Ahh I’ve never met anyone who had that same lightbulb/“mind opening” moment, this was so nice to hear 🥰❤️ love you guys!!
im pansexual, still in the closet and have no plan to coming out ever bcs where i live is really conservative and homophobic ive dated boys and girls (in secret) although its hard to understand to most of people in here it cant be helped that i like someone not bcs of their gender but bcs of the connection i felt with them its so nice watching you guys and hearing your story, thank you for sharing with us! believe me you guys sure give serotonin to many people, im one of them :)
My mom used to have a closeted gay friend, so my whole life she's been casually telling me "You know, if you ever are in such a situation, you know you can talk to us and we love you always" and little me just went "I KNOW mom!" ... Well, she also knew :D But the even funnier coming out story was to one of my best friends, I really wanted to tell her before my other friends, and I was like "Okay, let's meet, I gotta tell you sth" So we met in uni and I was a little awkward, because she is a wonderful person, but I didn't know what she'd say. So when I was like "well, I used to have a crush on this girl from school you know", she was like "So, you're not straight?" - "Yeah ... I think so ..." (didn't know my label back then) - "Okay, that's all? Can we get ice cream now for fuck's sake?" :D (It wasn't disrespectful, it was just very chill :D)
My coming out story is when I was around 15 I had this feeling towards girls so I got my first girlfriend and my best friend at the the was quite jealous! She sent pictures of me and the girl to my little sister, my little sister then went and showed my dad. He was okay with it thankfully and sometimes I actually appreciate what happened because I dont know if I could have ever done that myself 🥺
It’s so interesting to see other peoples coming out stories!! Also Caitlin I am sorry that your friend did that, they should have let you come out in your own time, but hopefully you girls are happy and your family are all supportive!!
I always enjoy watching the two of you RU-vid videos💓 I was also very nervous and scared when I came out about my sexuality to my friends and family🥺 I still have some problems sometimes. I live in Japan and I wish the world could be a place where everyone can live equally because there are still many situations in Japan where people don't understand.
haha that’s odd but i hope you’re okay and have a quick and speedy recovery! hope you do okay and remember to put sudocream on instead of scratching them because it’ll just get worst and leave lots of scars :))
That is very good that u both have understating Parents and excited both of u the way u are it’s no one fault u both like woman u are what u are and no matter what at the end of the day u both happy and love for each other what a good story to hear so other people who is straight or gay or lesbians who might go threw the same love your videos good work love u both x
This is very cool of you guys to share your stories! I’m pansexual and my coming out , I was outed but my mom supports me but I don’t have a good relationship with my dad so he doesn’t know but everyone else does :)
that's so weird about the fb photos, that's how my gfs homophobic aunt figured out we were together! like we weren't kissing or anything like that but i guess she could somehow just tell. coming out story: so i figured i definitely liked women when i was about 13, i was petrified to tell anyone cause i didn't know anyone that was gay at the time or anything. when i was about 14 i texted my friend it and thought she would not want to be friends anymore cause i built it up so much in my head but she was just like 'is that it, i could tell'. i wrote a VERY long email to my parents explaining everything to them and literally poured my heart out and spent the night anxious and crying waiting for morning to come as i knew when i went downstairs they would say something. well my dad never said anything at all and my mum said i was very young for labels etc but obviously it's fine if i do like girls. seems so silly now how much i worked myself up about it but i suppose i was young and had heard horror stories about coming out. i asked my dad what he thought of it recently as i have been dealing with a lot of homophobia and he said he didn't think anything and i'm clearly happy. my mum is the most supportive mum i could ask for and we regularly talk about lgbt issues etc my gf now has a homophobic family and it's honestly the first bad homophobia i have experienced. it has been very difficult and her coming out has been very hard for her but i am SO proud of her that she is being herself now. i can't imagine what it is like for your own family to not accept you for who you are and have always been. they constantly say nasty things about me and how i 'turned her gay' and about my mental illness which really hurt at first but now i can laugh it off as some of the stuff they say is just so far fetched and silly
you guys have made me feel safe to coming out to my parents my family don't know yet but i basically just blurted it out to my mum and 1 wee later to my dad.
Lol my sister outed me, I actually felt it quite quickly I guess, I mentioned to my best friend at school that I found this girl attractive and she got be to speak to a girl who was out as gay in our year, we were at a girl school and 14 yo. I spoke to her and I figured out in my head and through talking with her that I was bi (so I thought) after about a month I spoke to my younger sister about it, she was 12 at the time, I drew her a pie chart that said that I liked boys 95% and girls 5%, I was quite scared about admitting that I liked girls but I thought this percentage made it less of a big deal while still saying I’m bi because I knew I liked girls. Well we went downstairs for dinner and we were talking about the news and my sister went ‘oh Ella likes girls, like, like likes girls’ and I went red and glared at her and my dad was shocked because I would always talk about boys and at that point obviously that had stayed the same but I hadn’t talked about girls being attractive, anyway my mum said she had already figured it out and she knew. Fast forward 4 years ish, my mum was pretty made up in her mind that I was a lesbian and not bi, which she was right and she guessed from some of the things I would say, like I wouldn’t marry a man, or when she would ask me a question about the future and say husband or wife and I would say wife, or when I found out I couldn’t have kids ( I’m only 19 and have a central line and my stomach and organs are in organ failure so I can’t eat or anything, I’m fed through my line, abs other issues mean I cannot have kids myself) and in this time I also got religious, and I would say maybe God made it so I liked girls so they could carry my kids for me. And now I do say I’m gay, I still get nervous about the word lesbian which is a bit dumb, but my dad knows also and he makes jokes like if my mum says she can’t think straight he will say neither can Ella and we have a laugh. But that is it basically and I go to church( pre covid and having to shield) they know, some of them aren’t best pleased but my friends there are and will support anyway, cause I joined as a gay girl, my friends at school know and I would be perfectly happy and comfortable to be in a relationship with a girl, except nobody will date me because I’m sick and have a tube coming out of my chest lol😂😂. But I really like you girls and you make me laugh, and are doing well in making everything that is normal seem more normal to those who do not yet see it as that.
Tube coming out of your chest or not, someone will be madly willing to date you some day and you'll find a girl who loves you more than anything , promise, and that person won't mind your flaws , and that "tube" I kinda feel you're a Little bit insecure but that's a promise you'll see soon ^^ and I loved your coming out story it's lovely & fun tho 😭, and I'm also an lgbt Christian x) have a nice day :)
I literally did just watched all your videos since you started. But this one is my favorite. Hoping one day my partner will be brave enough to come out not for me but for herself. Kuddos to both of you. Thank you for inspiring people. 😘😘😘😘😘
The story of how i met my gf jessica was we met in 1st grade, and where best friends untill in the end of 4th grade we both moved schools for 5th and 6th (cuz in Australia its k-6 = primary and 7-10 = high) so we'ed talk online all the time having sleepover if we were lucky. Then i got with my toxic ex (who thankfully moved away) and right after i started crushing on jess. And she wanted to pretent we were dating to flex on her friends (who dont know me) and during that time she grew a crush on me and, asked me out in 6th grade i was so nervous it was a prank as ide been pranked like that before so i told her 25, 5, 19, witch means yes in number code. And were still together!
When I came out my mum said "stop this nonsense, you're too young to talk about this stuff, you're gonna settle down with a husband and that's it" And I haven't told my dad because I'm too scared to :(
Well, that was the wrong mom answer. I am very sorry that happened to you. I hope you all find peace together. You are unable to change your sexuality, so please don't destroy yourself trying. Just live you as you, and know it is as immutable as your eye color. Truly. They just dont get it.
Hi Caitlin and Leah! I know that you won’t see this but I just want to say how much of an inspiration you have been for me and made me feel safe to come out as lesbian to my mum and dad. Do you have any tips for coming out to friends when you don’t know if they are homophobic or will be okay with it? Thank you!!!!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍
only one person knows about me but a strange thing happend in year 11. my friend and i were arguing as a joke on snapchat and we put it on our story. she called me a bisexual b*tch and that time i never knew i was bi. for some reason nearly everyone believed her and i had to convince everyone i was not. but 3 years later i know that statment is true. hee hee
You think you only like girls? If you think you’re bi and you still have feelings for your boyfriend then it’s completely fine to stay with him, you can tell him if you want but again, you don’t have to. If you think you’re a lesbian and you don’t have feelings for him, you should probably break up with him
