Coming Out: A Mute Point

6 March, 2003 - 8:30am — Beryl

I've been reading all these miserable coming out stories, and I feel so bad, becuase it was so easy for me. so I started wondering; whats the difference? Is it just where I live and who I hang out with that made it so easy? The trick is, I didn't need to come out. It was a mute point, because everyone already thought I was a lesbian anyway!

Not the Whole story

I suspect with alot of these coming out stories theya re over dramafied. IN alot of cases the teens don't communicate with thier parents or don't want to, they feel persecuted. primes example, Nathan in QAF. parents were supportive and helofull but he insisted they weren't accepting and crazy... My personal coming out story was, My mother confronted me after seeing me at a Matthew Shepard Vigil on the news. She did while hurtleing down the hwy at 150 km/h.

with a m to the double o to the t.

reminded me of a dave barry article i once read.

Now let's answer some common grammar questions:

[snip....]

Q. What is a ``moot point?'' There's this guy at work, and every time you criticize him about ANYTHING, he says it's a ``moot point.'' Like you'll say, ``Hey, Bob, could you stop dripping ketchup on the copy machine?'' and he'll say, ``That's a moot point.'' So we put toner in his Big Mac.

A. Ha ha!

ironically...

... it is both a "moot point" and a "mute point."

I like the twist.

Spelling is The Devil

Lol, thanks for the spelling help. Im hopeless, I know. I've never seen QAF... but I think you might be right. But still, even compared to the people I know I've got it easy.
