How out is "out" in your book?

[AirBorn]

I'm slowly learning to not care what other people think its my life and they don't need to know until they discover that I am different but the same person that they have always know. If they ask then I will deal with it then but until then I'm tired of hiding myself because of others. Its time to live life one day at a time.

What is different? It is individually subjective.

What makes you so different - you are human (just like everyone), you have feelings (just like everyone), you are damaged (just like everyone), you have baggage (just like everyone), you have feelings for others (just like everyone). Does it really make you different just because you dont have feelings for only the opposite sex......again that is individually subjective - but I say no.

In fact, I am not sure what the ratio is but I am almost certain that the ratio is at least 50/50 of LGBT to "straight" love (as I am sure there are thousands of people who have not "Come Out" as to the sex(s) they have feelings for) So is the LGBT community really different?

Its not necessarily about people accepting you because you are different, but about accepting you because of the person you are.
