you know what's ironic?  several years ago, i was called THE WORST DRESSED PERSON ON NT in that thread, lol...
... so much for stereotypes!  lol

i work with some homosexual dude off site who lives in miami from alabama.  went to visit them on a work trip.  dude couldnt dress either hah no disrespect.

i think that has more to do with dude being from alabama

Props to you OP, I'm sure it was a tough to do

 

[mycoldyourdone]

[captainkicks]

Congrats

And as regards if my son came out, I would still treat him and love him the same, that's my son and blood, and always will be

For real. I only remember Timcity for his simplicity amongst the eccentric dressers. Just photos and even shoes that he wears, I would have never expected this.

Good for you though. I could only imagine hiding that away from parents for so long.

 

[fl0eticnostalgia]

Congrats. Now you can be you, 100%.  

I'm happy your parents were accepting. Things weren't that way for my brother, when he came out to my dad.

More Power To You Tim ...

Props

 

[limonyfresh]

wow. congrats on getting that done man. i can't imagine what it must feel like to get that kind of weight off your chest. it's awesome that your parents were accepting of it too.

 

[soltheman]

I knew there were unfashionable gay people. 

Congrats though man. That takes courage.

 

[Sir San Diego]

Congrats. I can't imagine the pain of having to hide who you are, in hopes that other people accept you.

I hope your parents, family and friends are nothing but understanding and supportive.

So dalitso is gay too? Damb.

DAMN.

Congrats Tim...the OG AL NTer.  

Knowing what I know now as a displaced "Yankee" down here, I can't imagine the internal struggles you encountered by simply growing up around a lot of closed-minded individuals.  No hate on your home state, but this is easily the most backwards thinking place I've ever lived.  

  Am I wrong for saying that I'm counting the days until I can leave?   




Props though boss...I'm glad your parents were accepting and I'm glad you had the courage to go through with it.

[wings90]

Congrats, man. 
Also, good to see the positive replies in here. I wasn't sure what to expect when I clicked this thread.

 

[l337six]

congrats bro.

 

[uptownsdotnetstacky]

Congratulations bro

 

[saintvitus07]

Took some serious guts after all that time and tension. Props.

 

[timcity2000]

yikes! my poor home state is taking a beating, lol...

 

[lazyj10]

Did your parents react the way you thought or assumed they would have? Was it anything like you anticipated after having gone through the agony of the situation in your head over and over?

 

[toy collector123]

Happy for you. Wish it were not a stigma for people to be gay in this society.

 

[81ackmamba]

As many have stated, I'm pleasantly surprised that NT is being so mature and supportive about this.

As for OP, I'm happy for you, and happy that your parents were so accepting of you.
