How can I explain homosexuality to my parents?

Tell them that is the sexual attraction to one of the same sex. That it can happen both naturally and unnaturally. That a gay man likes a man the same way a straight woman likes a man. It's just the way your brain is wired.

Coming out- is a big step to a new reality. Why do you recognize yourself as a homosexual ? If you have already thought about all pros and cons of being homosexual, then do it. Try to tell it at the time, you will be completely ready for that. Actually, parents are people who always love and understand so just be you when you talk about your secuality

Slowly. Give them time to process, its not a race and you most certainly don't want to seem unsure of it

I can explain homosexuality to my parents by telling them that people, in general aren’t always attracted to the opposite gender.

Explain it as you would explain heterosexuality but as 2 men or 2 woman. Give them time to understand. Explain slowly and calmly

First, make sure that you are not at risk in any way to being kicked out and check that they either understand nothing at all of it and also try to confirm that they do not have any extreme aversions to it, in order for your safety to be confirmed. Try to find time for you to have the appropriate discussion. Discuss the meaning of sexual orientation to your parents and make sure they fully understand the definition. Then discuss homosexuality and give it as the definition of being attracted to the same gender as yourself. Also make sure to thoroughly explain that it is not a perversion and try to work through any biases and beliefs they may have about homosexuality and make sure they understand that it is completely normal.

You can explain homosexuality as one of the facets of your very complex personality. It is a part of who you are, just as much as the trees are a part of the forest. Homosexuality is feeling at home, feeling loved and experiencing great joy in a same sex coupling. Tell them homosexuality is easy, it is like breathing to you. You know in your heart that it is a part of you. Tell them you have a great capacity to love, and you couldn’t imagine loving in any other way. Tell them to two people of the same sex in a relationship is the same as any other- based on love and understanding and kindness. Homosexuality is your love and truth.

Homosexuality is a tough subject, especially when it involves parents. But the easiest way to do it is by saying it's when someone likes the same sex. Don't sugar coat it. It's really an easy thing to say. It can be scary, yes, but saying it shouldn't be hard. If you're telling your parents that YOU are homosexual you should remember that it's best to do it in a calm, semi public environment. Do it quickly, like ripping off a bandaid, and expect questions or confusion. Try to work with them, but don't let them tell you that it's wrong if they're unaccepting. Nothing is wrong with being gay. Even if they're unaccepting know you're not alone, you have millions of people just like you out in the world. Everything will be okay.

I think the important thing is to focus on how you feel about the person and how much you love them first, before getting into the homosexuality aspect. You can try to explain that love is love, and you just happen to love someone of the same gender as you. Your talk to them should also depend of their own possibly distorted views of homosexuality, so you can try to ask them what is it they think. Then you can go from there to talk to them. The important thing is to normalize what you are experiencing and to focus on the emotions youre feeling. Stay strong.

You can always tell them you have important stuff to tell them and sit them down. Go with easy words. They love you no matter what,they are your parents afterall. Good luck and don't be afraid!It's okay to show emotion while talking too.💛
