An interesting question.

It seems as if homosexuals and bisexuals and whathaveyous have a lifestyle - and plain old heterosexuals don't. You always hear about "alternative lifestyles", but not about "mainstream lifestyles".

Your question as presented assumes that we are somehow required to be of one or the other specific thing, group, class, or lifestyle, and that we should embrace this and try and get others to embrace it as well.

I don't really know why you feel like you should tell your family anything at all. If you decide to start dating a female, do so. And should you feel like introducing her to your family, go right ahead. Why should they be alerted to your "lifestyle" prior to that? Why should you make it a point to try and give them a clue as to who or what you like to share your bed with?

If you try too hard not to turn it into a big deal, that is precisely what it'll end up becoming.
