How do i tell my dad i like girls? Recently I have been getting attracted to girls and decide im bisexual but my dad is a republican and is against gay rights...and it will be a little while before I move out and im surely gonna have a gf before I move out and my mom is proud of me for opening up to a new experience but she doesn't want my dad to ever know but I gotta tell him eventually because he's gonna find out sooner or later and he KNOWS when im liying to him...what do I do?

I think you should tell him. Your mom should support you, if he finds you with a girlfriend and explodes that would be much worse than him exploding in your house when no one is visiting

No I actually think it's a good idea! ^_^ my mom and I went over it and we decided that when I get a girlfriend we will tell him ^-^

Tell him that you have started feeling attraction towards other girls and ask him to help you, if you think he's not going to accept you. Cause if he doesn't like you because of that, try to be straight. If you really can't just tell him "I'm your daughter and you should love me for who I am.." I think it'll be fine if you're bi.

Just tell him. Like you said, he will find out sooner or later. Better now tell him. If you lie, it will only make matters worse

I love you for being who you are. Even though I'm straight, I think gays, lesbians, homosexuals, bisexuals, transgendered people, etc. totally ROCK!

be confident when i told my parents i liked girls they took it a lot better than id thought, i thought theyd kick and scream at me. just say dad i need to tell you some thing and tell him at a pace your dad will be able process what you are saying. have your mother in the room as back up if your dad does react but just make it clear it what you want. dont let him get you down
be strong be happy
good luck

Make a cake. On it right 'Bisexual'. Ask your parents to come into the kitchen. Say, "You are what you eat!" and gobble it down.

Your dad should love you for who you are and not judge you for what you think.

Well, this is a very difficult thing to do. Make sure your mom is with you. Be calm and straight-forward with it, don't sugar coat. Don't ever raise your voice or get defensive. Just tell him straight out and own it, do not back down; worse thing you can do is cave in. Do tell him though because otherwise it will only make it worse. Be very gentle though, I know this seems contradictarory but what I mean is don't be like "Dad, I'm gay. Deal with it." Say something more along the See More

Warning: this is going to be brutally and painfully honest but you need to know: he will probably not understand, accept,or forgive. You need to be careful which is why I so stressed having your mother with you.

Maybe you can pray to go And ask him to help you out and be straight. But God can't help with everything but, don't tell your self your bisexual your only like 14 your confused you don't really know what you wanna do, but nothing can stop you from being you.

I hate you. Get a life.

Friend there's nothing in the bible that says homosexuality is wrong and if your not gonna let me be me then please leave...God loves me for who I am and I think being bisexual is who I am unless God tells me to be straight I stay this way.

God does love you for who he made you to be.
But the path you chosen he doesn't like it.
Sodom and Gamorrah was burned down because of that path.

I'm not saying you Cannot do it, you can do it, God will still love you as his child.
But he will always dislike the path that you have chosen.
