It's bad when the people of the Internet will take you more seriously than your parents. Sorry op

You can laugh in their shocked faces when you bring home your new girlfriend.

Isallway--For a self proclaimed word wizard, you sure are a poor speller. Read your profile and find the 3 spelling / grammar mistakes.

"Mom, dad, I'm a lesbian." "Well, duh." Maybe you were that obvious. Anyway, although it sucks that that happenned, at least it's not hostility. I hope for you you'll live a good life.

Not a good idea to do it at a karaoke bar singing Katy Perry's "I Kissed A Girl." You can't be sure if they are laughing at your lifestyle choice or your horrible singing.

Sexual orientation is not a "lifestyle choice", mainly because it isn't a choice at all.

You probably don't fit their stereotypes of "gay" so they thought you were kidding. At least it doesn't sound like they'll turn against you when they realize you were telling the truth.

That sucks OP .... No one should be laughed at ever

Read that as "I came out OF my parents." F'd up sh*t right there. lol

Sorry, OP. It's never easy to do that sort of thing, regardless of their personal views. Hopefully they'll mature a little bit. I commend you for having the courage to come out to them regardless of their pitiful reaction.

"Isallway..."--For a grammar nazi, you can't spell worth dick. Read your profile: 3 huge grammar mistakes. "taking to spirits..." etc.

Hey what's up with the hate? You couldn't have just sent a personal message or replied to their comment?

I'm not so sure I mean my parents wre accepting yet my five year old cousin openly uses gay as an insult and all the guys and my school continuously pretend to be, being a lesbian is sometimes just plain terrifying

They laughed because no parent wants to hear that their child IS gay. These people that think being gay is normal are wrong! It's not natural!! It doesn't fit in with the natural laws of procreation. Why do you think gay men or women can't have kids? Because God didn't create them with the correct parts. Two penises can't make a kid nor two vaginas. Only a man and woman can procreate, therefore being gay is not natural!! If we were to put all the gays and lesbians on an island, how long do you think before they would all die out? Pretty quickly since they can't have children of their own. I am not homophobic nor a gay basher because I have several friends who are gay but I am tired of people saying its ok to go and live an immoral life because of it. Did you ever think God gave you that cross because he wants you to try and rise above it to give him greater glory? No wonder this country as well as the rest of the world is going to hell in a hand basket. I can't wait for the end of the world and the second coming of my Lord, Jesus.

I'm curious as to why anyone thumbed you up.
