Came out as a lesbian to my grandma. It went fine. She wasn't happy or supportive, but she also didn't say or do anything that she thought would hurt me. She just went "Why would you DECIDE that?" and I said "I didn't decide that." And I didn't say anything else. And I didn't look defensive or hurt. I just gave her the doe-eyed sympathetic stare like I felt sorry for her but happy for myself--the gaze of an ambivalent god--and she eventually went okay and didn't talk about it again. That's good. For her, it's good. She might bring it up later, but I honestly don't care that I'm a lesbian, and she can feel the same way.
Idk, it's just that I was sexually assaulted again this year (third time's the charm, babey) and I promised our most upset alter that if it happened a third time I would either come out or kill myself, so this seemed the lesser of two evils.
