Advice Needed
Just a warning - this is yet another entry about coming out.
As you all know, I did come out to my mom, who then outed me to the rest of the family. However, I have yet to come out to my dad.
For those who have come out to family, how did you go about it? Since my initial coming out was a "she asked, I told" deal ... this is something else altogether.
Did you just say, "I have something to tell you..." or "I'm gay" or did you have some other method to convey it?
This is a somewhat fragile relationship, and I'm doing what I can to rebuild it, so I want to do what I can to fuck it up as little as possible.
Thank you! :-D

I told my stepmum I didn't have a boyfriend, but I did have a girlfriend on the phone, and she volunteered to tell my dad, who was raised in a north Sicilian mountain village, as a Catholic.
His response was, "Assa long ass a you 'appy."
You might be surprised.

Considering that our relationship is being rebuilt and every time that I talk to him, he's so happy to hear from me, I feel like I could tell him that I'm a transvestite from Transexual, Transylvania - and he wouldn't care, because his daughter's back in his life. :-)
