Today, my son decided to come out of the closet by wearing a shirt that said "Mom, I'm gay" to the family reunion. FML

So not an FML, just accept your son for who he is, and kudos to him for being brave enough to come out to the entire family!

I think it's strange that he specifically addressed the shirt to his mom (unless she's really judgmental regarding sexuality, then more power to him), but I don't see a problem with wearing a shirt that says "I'm gay" to a family reunion. It may have been more intimate and given the immediate family more chance to celebrate if he told them first, but if they wouldn't have been supportive then I'm all for the t-shirt.

This is not an FML, so your son is gay.. and you dont need to explain a thing to your whole family. Get off your high horse, there are much worse things your son could be besides gay.

Ballsy and creative to come out like that. That's just ******* awesome. This is not an FML. Your son being gay isn't a bad thing, and if any of your relatives take a negative view of him being gay, they're not worth associating with anyway.

FYL indeed for having a gay son. It makes it even worse that now your whole family knows too. They might think it's your fault as a parent now that he's a queer what a douche thing to do by your son.

Let me guess - you also would support the mass execution of minorities (Blacks, Hispanics, and so on) as well.

There's nothing wrong with being gay, either.

kingofstuff- You should know that in 1996, a study was done at the University of Georgia that revealed that men who are homophobic are much more likely to become aroused by sexually explicit videos of homosexual males than men who are not homophobic. You can read it here: http://www.psychologytoday.com/files/u47/Henry_et_al.pdf Is there something you'd like to tell us about how you REALLY feel?

No man all the chemicals in my head are good and I'd much rather not piss God off.

Oh, no. Are you one of those pathetic little people who think that homosexuality is a sin?

You're probably a fan of Fred Phelps, aren't you? I'm so tired of you small minded fundies and your "homosexuality is a sin" bullshit. I can understand some of your ignorance since you're only 18 and have yet to experience the real world, but you need to take the blinders off and stop focusing in on a couple of passages in a poorly translated book of parables.

Yeah, hey! Thanks for reminding me again why I'm not Christian. No benevolent being who loved his children would cause them to be born in a way he considered sinful.

It's too bad the bigoted kids haven't come back. I was looking forward to seeing what bullshit they tried to spew next. They're 18 and 15, though, so one can't really expect very much from them other than flat-out ignorance.

You're a terribly person for thinking so.

did any of you people think that maybe the mom is a bitch and deserved it?maybe the kid tried to tell a couple times and she wouldn't accept it, so he retaliated.i love how everyone on here blames the child.evidence that you are all parents that are afraid that it's your fault if anything "wrong" (nothing wrong with being gay) happens with your child.be proud of your child no matter what their sexuality is.otherwise you shouldn't be a parent.
