Straight GuideHRC, in partnership with PFLAG, is proud to launch our first ever resource specifically for friends and family – A Straight Guide to GLBT Americans. The guide is a resource that helps map some of the emotions straight people feel when someone first comes out to them, walks people through myths and facts about GLBT Americans, and outlines ways straight people can demonstrate their support.

HRC SnapshotFor many people, starting the conversation about life as a gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender person - or even as a straight ally - can be challenging. What do you say? How do you bring it up? How will they react -- will it get wierd? As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, and HRC's Snapshot Project is an easy and fun way to start those conversations. It's easy. Learn how at HRC Snapshot. |
Am I doing the right thing.
Hello,
I am a heterosexual father of two with a daughter going to community college. The best advise I can offer, is to do whatever is neccessary to finish college. If you get kicked out of your house, that could interfere with your education. If your love truely loves you, she should understand that at this point in your life, your education must come first. After that, be true to yourself. If you are a lesbian, please don't get married to a man. You will not be able to deny who you really are for the rest of your life. The marrige will most likely end in pain for multiple people. At some point, after college, I would suggest you let your parents know who you really are. How can they truely love you if they don't really know you. They will have to face their own predudice which often will make a person realize how wrong they have been. There is the risk that they may never accept you, but they already don't accept you for who you really are. If they do come around, your relationship with them may become stronger than ever. Good luck.
