I honestly don't get why anyone needs to be silent about their sexuality, whatever it is. Sure, there are people who will discriminate, but why associate with them anyway?

Don't take this as me being rude, I certainly don't mean it to sound that way. Just wondering.

ummmm . . . i might lose my job. i work as a private phyiscal therapy assistant. My client's family has already made comments about homosexuality, not related to me and they are very against any sort of same gender relationships. So yes, if my client's family were to know . . . they might very well fire me on the spot due to their religious convictions

i wish i didn't have to associate with people who didn't discriminate and who accepted my life and me . . . but i don't always have the luxury.

I didn't take it as being rude, i don't mind you asking This forum is about seeing other's opinions and i respect that
