Your School & Sexual Orientation

[Sam!]

I am curious to know what people's particular school situations are like.



If you're out - how do people take it?

If you're not - how do people talk about gay people in front of you?

hhmm well im not in school anymore. But everyone there excepted it. Two of my friends were lesbian and showed public affection all the time. No one seemed to care except the administrators ofcourse. "public affection isnt allowed on premises" It's just such a common thing for girls to be "bi" nowadays i really dont think it phases many people anymore.

never gave people straight answers. They'd ask if I was gay and I'd say no because technically I'm not, I'm bi, and if they asked if I was bi, I would always answer in a different way, sometimes sarcastic, sometimes in a "duh that's obvious" tone. So I kept people confused. It was obvious to some what I was doing, and none of them ever said anything to the others, so I assume they were fine with it, but the ones who discussed it among themselves, I think they felt slightly uncomfortable. A lot of the girls at my high school were bi or lesbians, and most people seemed gay friendly, so the homophobic people kept it to themselves, being outnumbered and all.
