I am very happy today. The Supreme court of India decriminalized the colonial era law Section 377 which criminalizes homosexuality!!ahmagahplz.png ahmagahplz.png gays aren't criminals anymore but the social stigma against the LGBTQ community is still rampant. That includes my extended family and mine. My uncles use derogatory terms for the community and use gay as an insult. My dad's indifferent. My mom, who i think has a slight suspicion that i am gay, makes sure to tell time and again whenever she gets an opportunity that "gay people are bad and are the root cause of evil", "homosexual tendencies cause you depression(i have anxiety and depression)", "It's a western cultural export(Hello! we literally have homosexual acts depicted on some of our temples and in some stories of epics)". I feel so constricted living in my own house. I didn't tell anybody anything as i wasn't economically independent until now, if my family disowned me. My new workplace seems queer friendly toochuplz.png.  I'm scared to tell them but i can't just hide anymore. wish me luck.

Hope it goes well!

 

And remember to stay safe in your country! the law may be changed, but some people may try to hold on to the old mind set. They'll gradually start to understand, but for the time being it's still important to consider your safety!

As per what you mentioned about your circumstances I'd suggest you do it after you're fully independent. I understand the momentum though.

 

Wishing you the best either way!

 

I think this is a wise suggestion.

 

Best of luck to you however you handle it. I can only imagine how much of a stressful discussion it can be. I hope it goes well for you!

1. Good fucking luck

 

2. Give me some of the courage plss, I'm from a Catholic Indian family and one day, I will have to tell my parents im an atheist and bisexual but im just so scared. Im 15 and they already planned out my future like, they want me to get a brown catholic wife and all and im not too keen on that sigh. I bet i'll never see my family (maybe) and my extended family (fo sho) ever again after i come out. They're simply too religious to accept me but then again, i don't really mind

 

once again,good luck <3

thank you for your suggestion. Although we live in the same city we live separately as my current house is closer to my workplace and I visit them on the weekends. Although my mom is homophobic she loves  me lot so i guess, she maybe, can change her opinion. i don't want to stop talking to my immediate family though. i hope all goes well

thank you so much. it's my first meeting a fellow brown queer. you're very young so be careful. as with my current situation, i think you should probably wait until you get a job or are financially independent. I know how stressful it can be in conservative brown families regarding such issues. Hope you find courage. and let's celebrate on repealing of #section377ahmagahplz.png

best of luck my friend with your coming out but as one of the members here said wait for a bit be fully financially independent and then come out in case your family do not accept you can move out on your own , i hope your mother will understand you but considering indian parents i would say better wait a bit and have plan b before you come out. Anyway, best of luck again girl.
