my parents have this rule right? and its that no boys are allowed to stay in my room overnight until im 18. they say its cus it would be like, inviting us to have sex and they dont approve of it. - which is weird cus my bf is allowed in my room till like, 1am and we end up having sex then anyway. thing is, when we've discussed it in the past, i asked them what would happen if i was gay - whether they would not allow my best friends who have stayed in my room for the past 10 years or so stay over any more. and what would happpen if i was bi - would they not allow any one to stay over? wel anywho, they ended up saying that it was "like me" to just say i was gay to be allowed guys to stay over and then as soon as im 18 to say, oh no I'm straight again. I dont know where they get this from and i wouldnt do anything like that at all. but now i do actually wanna come out to my parents and i dont think they will believe me! Im really open and into gay rights and ive always been that way, and my mum knows ive had sex with guys and that i have a boyfriend so - how do i get her to believe me?

If you want to tell your mom, tell her. Tell her she can believe it or not, but it's true. Then let her wake up to that reality in her own time.
