dbst,

From the way you use your linguistics to address the issue and the way I do, I see we come from different spectrums in life ( in every way). I wanted to keep this thread as less verbally offensive as possible which obviously did not happen with your post. I feel like you did not have anything stronger to stay thats why you resorted to the words in your post. But then who am I to judge you.

And I have known my parents for the longest time. I know how far to push it. They have always been liberal for their time and given the time to grasp the idea of homosexuality, they will also be on the wagon sooner or later. And for this, the roles of my siblings cannot be ignored which I am very positive about. 

And I am certainly looking at sharing my life with a partner. So there will be no hiding of my sexuality. Sooner or later, the cat will be out of the box.
