What the heck is coming out?

This is my first post on tumblr but I though I would just re-post this from my word press :) So a while ago my brother has come out of his “closet” though I still don’t understand that term and why it has to be coming out.  (Also is it really coming out I mean my brother is Bi?) Anyways, if you know a person for a pretty good amount of time they don’t need to come out you just wait for them to introduce their gay friend to you.  By “gay friend” I mean their boy/girl friend.  Now I believe that whether you are from a strict family that hates gays to the bone or just a family that is not gonna accept you for what is a part of you and something you can’t change, they should be able to have in their family and love you as always.  I grew up with a strict family teaching me that being gay or loving the same-sex is wrong.  Being in the same bed with the same-sex is disgusting! Well let me tell you whether your Gay, Bi, Lesbian, Pan, Tran and so on, sex is the same no matter what or who your with.  There isn’t one position that gay people do with each other that straight people don’t do.  Now I will tell you all truthfully even though I still get uncomfortable looking at gay guys kiss or things like that I don’t let that get in the way of my relationship with my brother.  We were always close and after he came out even closer because that how family should be.  If you still can’t take the fact that your family member or friend is gay then ask yourself one question and really think about it.  Why would someone choose to be something they know everyone will hate?  You don’t know the answer well I’ll tell you dumb ass. It’s because they didn’t choose that, it’s who they are.  Plus chances are they are going through enough without you hating on them.  Here’s the thing now my brother has told me about his experience basically having an inner war within himself.  He didn’t want to like both men and women he wanted to be “normal”.  So for anyone that is gay you’re normal. Why?  Because loving is how people get through life. (wow I’m getting cheesy here)  I know what you’re thinking though why is she trying to talk about how we feel when she doesn’t have to go through it?  You’re right.  I’m not gay but I do believe that love is love.  And if you choose to love someone of your own gender what human is allowed to judge you and say that’s not right?  Last thing I’ll tell you is that it’s not coming out when telling everyone who your are. It’s you giving other people the choice to come in to your life.  SO tel me you experience that you have had with a friend, family member or maybe you?
