What if you found out that your only son is gay? What will you do?

The last thing a person that is gay needs is to have their parents turn their backs on them. I would still love my son anyway. I could love him just the same. It would not change the way I treated him or how much I loved him, even if he showed up dressed as a woman and did not tell me. I think that it would be hard to feel any other way. I have been around a lot of gay men and gay women. I have even worked with two trans sexuals. There isn't anything about being around them that bothered me at all. Well some of the gay men dressed better than me, and had a better sense of style, that is funny to me. I have never been uncomfortable around gay people, even though I am not gay. Ever. When I am with them I enjoy myself just the same as with any heterosexual people. I think being around them so much when I was youger must have made a difference.

I don't have a son, I have a daughter whom I love more than life itself. I can honestly say, there have been times I have been disappointed in her when she didn't do the right things I and my wife have always told her; but there is nothing she can ever say or do that is going to change my love for her. My love for her is, and always will be unconditional. We have always told her that we believe and accept heterosexual is the only natural way, being gay is a choice just like what color shirt you choose to wear is a choice. We do not judge those who are gay. We do not buy in to the claims that have people claiming they were born that way. I can not in good conscious claim to be Christian and see this subject in any different light.

I'd greet him with a big fat hug and get that party started! I love my children no matter what..they are my heart and soul and quite frankly their sexuality or prefrence in dress regardless of their sexuality is none of my damn business once they become adults....and I have to agree with whomever said that the son in your story isnt necessarily gay....

No one just turns gay. They just come out I think the expression is. It would be a shock for most parents but not something you can't get around. I have some friends that has one gay son and one very heterosexual son. Both were shocked by this when they first found out as they are quite religious. But they came to understand that it is not something that son one day decided he would be and with that understanding came acceptance. He is outstanding in music and just recently became the church cantor. The woman's clothing thing is for the most part a completely different thing. Even some heterosexual men enjoy dressing in woman’s clothes. Not in public of course.

I wouldnt care if either of my children were gay,after all as a parent we just wish happiness and success and good health for them and there are plenty of happy and successful gay people in the world.If the son is dressing as a woman then he has a gender issue which would be hard enough for the guy to deal and thats not really being gay to me,thats just being the wrong gender your born with.

I would love my boys no matter what, and although it might be a shock at first, I will always love and accept them. I wouldn't want them to have to hide who they are because they are afraid of what I would think. I want them to be happy, and if that makes them happy so be it! It would be selfish for me to not accept them, if that is how they choose to live.

I would love my son no matter what. Straight or gay, he would still be my son. He would still be a part of me and nothing could change the love I have for him.

I can't picture it at all. I can't accept it and I will try all my best to stop it.
