Obama eliminating the "don't ask, don't tell" policy came up. it ended with us all arguing, them against me, and me crying. the last time they saw me cry was when a friend of mine died on march 23, 2008. then my dad got all upset, like he cant talk without hurting anyones feelings and my sister and mom kept elling at me about it and my brother was screaming and hitting me.
the whole time i was like WTF!?! they think i got upset because they don't agree with me but it's because the way they were talking was like horrible and i know if i ever told them i was a lesbian, then they would hate me. i just don't know what to do and im hurting so bad.
i just need some advise like crazy.!
I'm a lesbian && my family is homophobic! PLEASE HEL

give your mother the guilt trip.
okay you ask " mother would you love me if i was even a murder.. a monster?" cause remember your mother carried you inside of her for nine months and even after that she was the one that fed you and kept you alive. and even if she is now like a total uncaring bitch she still has a oxytocin gland. oxytocin is the trust hormone. when mothers give birth here blood is full of this hormone, this hormone is in her blood so she dosent reject the baby. Now in her later life the oxytocin is at a lower level but still her mind is a mothers mind and will always tell her to care for here for baby. this is were the guilt trip comes in this will put her brain into saying " OMG MY BABY SHES TROUBLED KICK IN THE OXYTOCIN !".
so yeah thats prety much it. just sit and talk about motherhood i guess and ask about unconditional love

People will go far for their beliefs.
I mean, that's worth a shot.
But people can be cold and heartless.

Personally? I'd wait until they no longer support you. Then drop the bomb.
I hate to tell you to sit in the closet, but that versus how they might possibly treat you should you tell them before you leave the nest, I think the closet is rather comfy.

My friend before she came out of the "closet" she was dropping little hints even if they may not have known. When she finally told her parents its wasnt that big of a surprise then. Basically after she told them they added all the stuff she said up and figured out that she was telling them all along and it comforted the blow(srry if i make no sense!..im lacking sleep from going out the past two nights)

It's a policy in the US military in which suspected gays are not asked if they are homosexual and homosexuals do not inform the military that they are gay. Being gay in the military results in General Discharge from the military and is placed on your record. Fortunately it's not Dishonorable Discharge, but it is wrong nonetheless and there is big talk about reversing it and not making homosexuality a crime in the US Military.

that is what i am thinking. but it is really hard because while im hiding myself they are denouncing everything about it. just thinking about it, and they have been reminding me, makes me sick to my stomach, quite literally. the way they act its like ... the salem witch trials all over again. i always thought them to be open-minded like they claim to be but ... they're not and it kills me.

i dont think will tell them. i mean it is very helpful to hear what other people think. i mean i live in a military community overseas and they aren't all very accepting. it's hard not to be able to tell even some of my closest friends because of how they feel about it. im probably going to wait until i am ready to leave and not come back.

What I would do:
Bring my Girlfriend home, dangerouse, I know, and introduce her as a friend. They're bound to catch on, and if they confront you, then get mad, just be like
'I like her, so? Besides, you asked.'
But that's just me
