Will I be gay, too?
You won't be gay just because I'm gay.
It's not contagious, and it doesn't
appear to be hereditary. you will be
whatever you are going to be.
Don't you like men?
(The child might be asking, "Don't
you like Dad?" or "Do you hate
Dad?" If this question is asked by a
son it may also mean, "Don't you
like me?" or "Do you hate me?")
I do like men but I'm not physically (or
sexually) and romantically attracted to
them as I am to women.
What should I tell my friends about it?
A lot of people just don't understand so
it might be best to keep it in the family.
If you want to tell a close friend, go
ahead and try it out. But the friend
might not be accepting, and she or he
might tell others. You should be prepared
for those possibilities.
