Being Gay no longer has to be a secret

I have often said to a lot of my gay friends that I think there needs to be more open communication on how their half live. The gay community seem so afraid someone is going to ask question that they might not have and answer to. They are afraid to be ridiculed. They are so afraid others may judge them. Suck it up people! Communication is the only way to normalcy. Gay people use some traditions but their is no book on how to live as a gay couple. Being gay there is no format on how gay families conduct themselves in any type of relationship. I would like to see more relatable stories base on gay relationship and everyday daily situation so we can relate and share stories. We need to see the good, the bad and the ugly in gay families, gay relationships, gay dating, gay romance, and any other question straight people may have about gay people. Gay can no longer be kept as a well kept secret because we have people who need to be held responsible for unacceptable behavior.

I recently came across a story of two gay females in a relationship who appear happy from their picture but it's a picture. Inside this horrific relationship these two women came together and killed and eight year old child. The mother allow her mate to kill her child and she helped hide the body. All because the mate didn't want the child around. The lame excuse she gave to hide her crime was so pathetic. She tells the father of the child she was visiting friends. As a mother I cannot understand how it is any mother can be so heartless in killing their own child over a relationship. Don't get me wrong these type of things happy in the real world as well but the difference is gay people are still trying to become part of the normal world. This woman may needed help and had no one sensible to talk her. When gay people get together we use tradition and our own personal needs to determine how we're going to live as a couple going forward. Conducting a relationship is not easy and gay people need advice just like the heterosexual couples. If there were more ways in helping gay people then maybe, and I do mean maybe this could have been avoided. Where do gay people go when they have issues with their children. Not everyone seek out the professionals.

I know a great deal of straight women who are now dating gay women. A lot of straight women entering gay relationship have no clue on what to expect in a same sex relationship. Especially a woman with children. She no longer has to consider herself but her children in this new found relationship. Statistically we have no answers on whether these types of relationships affect children. I am often ask the role their mate should play in their relationship. A straight woman has to tell her children she left their father to be with another woman. That has to bring up many questions. We have to reach out to media to find more ways to represent people who live in the gay community and help by sharing other people stories. Nothing is more comforting in knowing there are other people in the world who are going through what you are going through. This will help the world to become more accepting of gay couples and their contributions as citizens in the world. If gay people want to be respected in the world and earn the same privileges as the rest of the citizens they have to show the world who they are. Let them know that we are just people who want to live happily living with the ones we love and sharing our happy stories to the rest of the world.
