The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

My parents aren't exactly liberal when it comes to their view on "sexual minorities"... I can never relate to all these stories I read on the internet where the parents are so accepting of homosexuality and "knew all along", while assuring them there's nothing wrong with it. Not that they would disown me, but I can't (and don't want to) imagine their reaction. Darn, this kind of really makes me look like I grew up in rural Texas, doesn't it? :P (No offense to anyone from Texas here)

See, I used to care about that stuff. However, and this took me a while to learn, if they really don't like you, or don't care for you, or sit in judgement of you for who you are, then, while it sucks, those are not the people you need in your life. I mean, everyone goes at their own pace and does it their own way, but most of the people I know, including myself, who were in your situation eventually had to wise up to their own reality and finally just be themselves.

Apathy doesn't sound like me, though, but thanks. I would probably feel empty, and I don't want to. Besides I think I've thought so much about it that just stopping would be somewhat hard... :unsure:

When I told my mom, she didn't get all upset like I thought she would. She literally asked me, "So you want me to throw you a coming out party?" And I was like, "I'm not a debutante." Though, Italian mother is Italian... she hopes I find happiness..... with a nice Italian boy.
