When I actually came out I was 15 and came out to my mum. I told her I was bisexual and she told be that it was probably just a phase. She said even if it wasn't a phase that she still loved me. She told my dad who has never spoken to me about it and kind of refuses to acknowledge it

So I shouted that it was s good thing I was bisexual then.

My dad walked out and still doesn't believe it. 
My mum stayed but doesn't believe it either. When I said I was joining the LGBTQ+ society she said 'but you're not that'. She doesn't understand. ]]> 2018-10-08 17:08:18 UTC https://padlet.com/uowlgbt/x1aw4zfoe58g/wish/290400910 uowlgbt https://padlet.com/uowlgbt/x1aw4zfoe58g/wish/291426447 I told my mum I needed to speak to her.
