I'm out -- My mother said she knew since age one, since I was far more interested in Barbie dolls and make-up than G.I. Joe (I was a cutie then too, with blonde hair and blue eyes... if only it had stayed that way).
 
I have the same problem except i dont know if my family knows. I got caught masturbating to gay porn when i was 11-12. And then my family, cousins and aunts etc.. keep asking me if i have a girlfriend. My dad keeps highlighting girls everytime i am with him. And my mom just recently asked me if i was gay twice, and now she has a gay friend. I dont know if my family knows, im not out but i think they do..
 
I recently came out to my mom, and she said she had no idea, which came as a shock to me...I thought she would have had at least an inkling.
 
My mother told me in her heart she always knew but hoped it wasn't true
 
Oh me mum and dad definitely knew all along.
 
When I told my mom she said she knew. Later she told me she knew since I was four. I have no idea how she knew, but she did.

My hair used to be really read, now it's more of a brown
 
Not having a girlfriend or even an interest in girls since I was 14 should probably be a pretty good indicator for them. I know they suspect it, but at the same time, I know they're praying for it not to be true. Can't wait to see the looks on their faces next month.
 
My mom knew I was gay probably when I was 8. My brother when I was 15 and my dad when I was 16. I came out when I was 16. Now I would say I am pretty masculine so I don't really come off as gay but if you spend about 2 weeks with me (not knowing I was gay initially) you would know after that without me telling you, (unless you can't read people).
 
Always wanting what my older sister had, we were like twins...

Little Mermaid doll... not cool. Though it wasn't actually a doll, some comfort in that.

But yeah, we all exhibited some kind of behavior. Now tell me why my favorite movie has always been Alien and Aliens, and Ellen Ripley such a cool hero?
 
'i still have my Joe's...' I put on my gay lisp 'there sso cute and musscley, and who wouldn't want a kung fu grip?'

ROTF he grabbed the bratz doll, picked his kid up and walked for the head of hte store.


Lol, funny story, and so true.
 
If they didn't know they were stupid. When I was just four, I said I wanted to be a fashion designer. When I was five, I kept asking why a man couldn't marry another man. I played with dolls and listened to Broadway show tunes.

But I knew I was gay the moment I understood the concept.

I think they were pretty sure when I was a teenager but probably hoped against hope that it wasn't the case. I think by the time they died a few years ago and my partner and I had been together for 22 years, they knew for absolute sure.
 
Hi guys! I'm back! [for a little while, that is...:-)]

Yeah, my mom definitely knows.

About 2.5 years ago, my mom caught me on the phone with another guy very late at night. Not that talking to another guy late at night constitutes being 'gay', but my mom knew I had never had a girlfriend or truly expressed interest in girls.

So...when she caught me on the phone that night, she picked up the line and asked the other guy who he was. [He] remained silent. I hung up the phone.

Immediately, she came down the hallway yelling [literally] at the top of her lungs about me being on the phone with another guy while simultaneously crying and wailing as though someone just died.

Unfortunately that night, the WHOLE house [and possibly the neighborhood] found out about my attraction to guys - I will never forget that chaotic night.

Like the OP, my mom also found out about gay porn on my computer. That was before I knew how to clean out the cache and browsing history.
 
When I told my mom, at age 28, she told me (a) that she had known for ten years, and (b) that she thought "it could be different for you if you tried."

(both of these, together and separately, made me very angry).

Mom especially more than dad worked hard -- in ways that were not at all kind -- when i was growing up to extinguish anything out of my expression that were "gay". It was not helpful for me.
 
Not "out" yet, although I think my sister kinda knows. My parents the other day were talking about when I get a family etc so it doesn't appear they get the clue.
 
When I was young, I enjoyed My Little Pony. When I was five, I put on my sister's dress and pretended to be Jem. I never had any male friends. So yeah, when I very young, I'm sure my parents suspected I was gay. When I was about 7 or 8, though, I got really into Power Rangers and little league (I SUCKED at baseball...I can't believe I stayed for two seasons) and I think that eased my father's worries. My mother always knew, though. When I told her when I was 17, she wasn't surprised.
 
I came out to my mom and everyone at age 17. and everything went grate they all accepted me. and she told me that she already knew, Because when I was young, I would play with my sisters barbie dolls, and I would love to play dress up and stuff. But the big CLUE was that when I was about 10 I had this big crush on my friend who was 12. and everyone knew about it because I would yell at him across the street or something really loud and say (I LOVE YOU) and everything but I was just 10 and so it was very confusing for me LOL. it's funny because today, we are grown up and I can't stand him, we was never close friends to begin with, just someone I grow up with.:-)
 
It's one of my pet theories that every single person has at least one "gay" trait. It might be a high-pitched laugh, it might be a bit of a spring in your step, it might be a soft spot for disco. But we all have something.

If a person with these traits ends up being straight, these traits are "quirks".
If a person with these traits ends up being gay, these traits are "proof".

Take my brother. At age 13, he decided all he wanted for Christmas and his birthday was clothes - all the latest fashions. He also was quite artistic, and had plenty of female friends that weren't his "girlfriends".

And how about my sister? She was the athletic one in the family, playing soccer on pub teams at the age of 15. She went into the construction business and drove a truck.

Had my brother or sister come out, people would've pointed to these things and said, "Oh, come on. It was SO OBVIOUS that they were gay!"

Just one thing, though. They're both straight. And so what would have been "evidence" becomes now just "personality traits". :)

Oddly, I probably had fewer "clues" than my siblings. I did tend to sit with my legs crossed, and I did like disco music (in addition to rock), but that was about it. Now, people can use these traits as "evidence", but at the time, they were just something to make people wonder.

Did my parents know? No. I wouldn't say they were totally stunned, or that I turned their world topsy-turvy by telling them, but I do think it was somewhat of a surprise. They took it extremely well, though. They always do. :)

For all i remenber when i small probably about 15 i just showed no interest in girls but coming from a catholic background to be interested in priesthood was there..but after a while losing interest in that came. And start buyng porn magazine like hustlers but i was kind of intersted in mans dick ..And now turning 45 assuming they suspect me being gay but who actually cares?
 
My mom always kinda knew but thought I was just confused! Rrright.

That's the kind of lies moms tell themselves so they don't have to deal with reality.

Now she accepts me and is a 100% supportive.
