Inform? Do people inform other people they're straight? No.

There shouldn't be a difference between telling your parents you have a girlfriend or boyfriend now. There's no need to sit down a la "Mom, Dad... I have to tell you something." I never understood this procedure. Why in the near future? We can start with it now. All of us.

Judging off the title, I thought the OP was trying to be homophobic

Never... Such a small minority of people are gay that if you're ever wanting to find a partner you're gonna need to come out, no matter how accepting society are of gays. Everyone in the world could absolutely love gays, but there's still going to have to be a point in your life when you tell people that you are gay.

I guess you're meaning more the stigma surrounding 'coming out' and the big deal it all it right now though? Probably fairly soon in Europe, tbh. I'd say already a vast majority of Europeans couldn't care less if someone's gay or straight. America though.... Well, maybe by 2100...

Probably in a few hundred years...

I'd say 50 years or so.

I don't think people will have to stop coming out, but I think it will come to a point where coming out has no negative connotations, its just saying 'actually, I prefer the same sex'


this.

Probably around 50 years in the western world.

In the middle east, probably around 200 years until it's just "ok to be gay"..

Well, the majority of the world is (seemingly) straight. So people assume that you're straight, and if you're not, then you let them know. Maybe sexuality shouldn't have labels at all, and you don't go around saying I'm Straight or Gay or Bisexual, you just have boyfriends or girlfriends and that's that...

Most like never but give it a couple of decades.

Basically.

This made me love him 100000000000x more

ffffffafmpoewa;nga
if i ever did this...

but good for you tho!

Probably never because people will always assume that you're straight until you come out. It should have already happened though....

this has no answers


everyone is different. not everyone has to come out and not everyone needs to come out
