how do I tell my parents I'm a lesbian?

Just sit them both down and tell them you have something important to tell them. It's just a lot of build up for nothing of your parents are okay with it. I worke myself up so much and my mum's reaction was just "okay," and she didn't even care! I mean she Did on some level, but it is not a disappointment in any way. Once you do it you will feel so much better. Do try to time it well though. Not during a fight or very sad time or while they are driving. It can be a shock, but just know that you are not a disappointment. Yhere are lots of comin out videos on YouTube that are great to watch. Good luck!

When I came out, I was 14. I did it separately, my mom first, then my dad. I couldn't even get the words out of my mouth when telling my mom. I was so close to crying, and then she finally asked me if I was gay. I shook my head and burst into tears. She told me she still loved me no matter what. My dad didn't take it as well and is still in denial...Anyways, if your mom is asking you if you are a lesbian that means she's ready to hear it, and most likely knows you are. So I think that if you told her now, she wouldn't be surprised.

to jessica-- don't you think if we could change being gay, that we would, who wants to be ridiculed, teased, tortured, and treated as social outcasts???

don't listen to jessica, she is just ignorant, i just came out to my parents a few weeks ago and they were totally cool with it, but every set of parents is different, if you feel comfortable telling them, sit them down and just tell them...start with, "i need to tell you guys something"

Tell them you'll never wind up on their doorstep accidentally pregnant

Jessica, please try to change your sexual orientation, which is innate, and get back to us about it

you dont were supposed to like men just try dating guys. i have this theory that if you date the opposite sex and if you really want to be straight you can be!
