In Answer To: How do I tell people I'm gay? (Ryan C)

Dear Ryan,
Your situation sounds exactly like mine when I was a freshman ready to come out in high school. I didn't want my parents to know and didn't really think about teachers. What I did was I told my few best friends and they told other people. People just came up to me and asked if I was gay and I told them and that was it. Everyone (students) knew I was gay in a matter of days and to this day it hasn't spread to my parents and it's been almost 2 years. You won't have to worry about teachers finding out, and if they do I don't think they will treat you different - they can't anyway because it's against the rules. I hope this helped
you and good luck!
Dave
